As a matter of fact, Yinka Quadri is going back to school to hone his skill in film production, particularly production design at Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago Iwoye, Ogun State.  I have every reason to believe that it would better the lot of the industry and it would also adequately prepare me for my political ambition.

How does it feel?

I feel very elated and happy about it.  At 55, I feel very excited going back to school.

When is the programme starting?

It will start in the first week of February 2015. It’s a 6-month programme.

You were recently on tour of U.S and the UK, what was your mission?

I went there to rub minds and brainstorm with Hollywood and Bollywood stars so as to tap new ideas to raise the ante at home. I strongly believe in innovation and with that you can measure up to international standard.  This is our industry and we can’t allow it to die.
