Speaking on the new initiative, Samuel Olatunji who the consulting Editor-in-Chief (EIC) said TNR is an idea whose time has come. ‘Seriously, Nollywood deserves more than what it got.

With most websites today, many just sit and expect ‘the usual’ characterized with treated promo photos. Little or no attention is given to major players other than the A-list actors except when there’s some scandal or a fashion flop’.

It is owned by media and management company Prestige Platform and has a lean team dedicated to giving the very best of Nollywood content that can’t be found anywhere else.

Toun Egbemode, the consulting public relations officer says, it’s a round peg in a round hole. ‘Samuel Olatunji, popularly known as Bigsam is a round peg in a round hole. He’s coming on board as a consultant with wealth of experience that money cannot possibly buy’.

Conclusively, Samuel Olatunji says, ‘I thank the management of Prestige Platform for reposing such huge confidence in me. This will be a big challenge.

Within record time, TNR should be talk of the town’.
