A popular actress, Funmi Awelewa, aka Morili Omo Ibadan, has transitioned into a new phase of her career, with her debut as a director in a movie titled, ‘A Wish’.

In a statement sent to Saturday Beats, Awelewa stated that the movie tells the story of her life, especially about her mum, who has lost her sight.

She said, “It was really an awesome experience, though very taxing, for me to direct this movie because it is the story of my life. It is very dear to my heart, hence my resolve to take the risk and direct it myself. I thank God it turned out just the way I wanted it.

The actress-cum-filmmaker added that the movie, which was made by her production company, Faab Entertainment, was filmed at the actual places where she grew up.

She added, “We often neglect our loved ones, especially parents, in our quest for better a life, and many times, they have issues, especially health-wise, but they usually don’t have the opportunity to discuss it with their children, since they rarely spend time with them.

“I want to use this movie to correct that ‘misdeed’. No matter how busy one is, one should always create time for one’s parents. One should check on them, talk to them, and always assist them to check their health status as often as possible.”
