Award-winning drama series, Superstory, has premiered a new
season titled Godwin.
The new offering is unique in the sense that it stars a
multi-talented 26-year-old man who is actually living with Down Syndrome –
Solomon Omere.
The TV drama, which has Omere playing the titular character,
also stars a number of popular artistes including Kehinde Bankole, Zack Orji,
Toyin Alausa, Bolanle Ninalowo, Chinyere Wilfred, Pa James, Cassandra Odita,
Jide Kosoko, Georgina Ibeh, Victor Edogun, Scarlet Shotade, Paul Adams, Amara
Uwakwe, Tunde Adeyemo, Patience Oseni, Emeka Darlington and Rex Maximus.
The Managing Director WAP, Wale Adenuga Jnr., explains that
the production is not about a person
living with Down Syndrome begging for anybody’s acceptance.
“Rather, it is about him excelling in life and fulfilling
his dreams in a way that you will be the one craving his acceptance. According
to the National Down Syndrome Society, one in 691 babies are born with Down
Syndrome in Nigeria and Godwin is set to provide enlightenment and eradicate
the prevailing stigma.”
