Burna Boy set to Produce first film to Tackle Sex Trafficking

Nigerian singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has stepped into a new role in the film industry as an executive producer.

He will co-produce the upcoming thriller, 3 cold dishes, with IFIND, alma productions, Asurf films, Martian network and black mic mac, a production company dedicated to showcasing African and middle eastern talents.

3 cold dishes follows Esosa, Fatouma, and Giselle, three former female victims of sex trafficking, who have risen to become powerful players in the underground world of prostitution.

Burna boy will produce the film through spaceship films, the production company he started back in 2015 with his mother, Bose Ogulu.
