Others like Kate Henshaw-Nuttal who regularly deliver good tidings from Promised and Rita Dominic indisputably have built reputation for themselves as brand ambassadors. In this report, Samuel Olatunji explores what makes them tick. <\/p>\n<p>Mildred Okwo<br \/>Very few will recognize her in public, but her work speaks volumes. She\u2019s a talent manager par excellence and a wonderful producer and director. She manages Rita Dominic, Kate Henshaw, Jim Iyke and Mike Ezuronye . A recent movie she produced didn\u2019t say less. Genevieve Nnaji, who played the lead role in the movie, said she\u2019s never had it so good. Why Mildred has not released the AMAA rated movie is best known to her. <\/p>\n<p>Peace Anyiam Osigwe<br \/>She\u2019s been \u201ca godmother\u201d of sorts for movie makers. She came up with the idea of the AMAA a while ago and it\u2019s been Africa\u2019s Oscars . She\u2019s also a reputable producer and as a matter of fact she produced The GRA Women, a soap now running in Nigeria and Ghana. <\/p>\n<p>Amaka Igwe<br \/>Her fans call her \u201cthe queen of the soaps\u201d but Amaka does more than that. In recent times she\u2019s been organizing workshops for aspiring filmmakers. Amaka is among the brains behind Checkmate, Fortunes and many other soaps of note . <\/p>\n<p>Joy Ilibeno<br \/>Joy is the toast of movie lovers. She\u2019s Head of Operations at Pan African Movies, West Africa. Now that Joy is distributing African movies in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa, Joy is the arrowhead of movie producers who know their onions. <\/p>\n<p>Emem Isong<br \/>In a male-dominated Nollywood , Emem Isong has carved a niche for herself and paved the way for aspiring female movie producers. From Games Women Play to Reloaded, Emem has left non in Nollywood in doubt that she still has a lot up her sleeves. She is reputed to have given Stella Damasus her first lead role, an opportunity which surely was instrumental in placing considerably ahead her peers. Nse Ikpe Etim also benefited immensely from Stella\u2019s repertoire. <\/p>\n<p>Vivian Ejike<br \/>Vivian Ejike is a banker-turned movie maker. Amongst her works are Silent Scandal, Private Storm and When the Heart Lies. She has a reputation of improving with very movie she produces which means she\u2019s quite creative and dynamic . One of Vivian\u2019s creative energy is Chelsea Eze who featured in one of her movies and now gradually carving a niche for herself in Nollywood<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Click for Full Image Size\" onclick=\"window.location='\/image_preview2.asp?img=UGVhY2VBbnlpYW0tT3NpZ3dlLmpwZw==';\" class=\"img1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/d994bee5image.aspx_1.jpg\" border=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Peace Anyiam Osigwe<\/p>\n<p>              <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Click for Full Image Size\" onclick=\"window.location='\/image_preview2.asp?img=QW1ha2EtSWd3ZS5wbmc=';\" class=\"img1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/33ab93c7image.aspx_.jpg\" border=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Amaka Igwe<\/p>\n<p>              <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Click for Full Image Size\" onclick=\"window.location='\/image_preview2.asp?img=RW1lbS1Jc29uZy5ibXA=';\" class=\"img1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/6afaec1dimage.aspx_.jpg\" border=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Emem Isong<\/p>\n<p>              <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Click for Full Image Size\" onclick=\"window.location='\/image_preview2.asp?img=Vml2aWFuLUVqaWtlLmpwZw==';\" class=\"img1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/6209ac56image.aspx_.jpg\" border=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Vivian Ejike<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <span>Do you have a story\/gist for publication?
