    “Farmer’s Bride” wins big as “Seven Doors” dominates technical categories at BON Awards

    According to Premium Times, “Farmer’s Bride” won Movie of the Year (and Director of the Year), while “Seven Doors” emerged as a major technical winner, taking multiple categories.

    The coverage highlights how the awards spread recognition across both mainstream and craft-heavy productions—an ongoing Nollywood conversation about balancing box-office pull with technical excellence.

    PM News (News): “Farmers Bride clinched the night’s highest honours.”
    TheCable Lifestyle (Social): “FULL LIST: ‘Seven Doors’, ‘Farmer’s Bride’ win big.”

    Analysis/Echotitbits take: Awards like this can boost licensing, streamer negotiations, and cinema interest—especially for craft winners (cinematography, production design, effects). Watch for “winner” marketing pushes, streaming placements, and any festival momentum.

    Toyin Abraham’s “Oversabi Aunty” rolls out after premiere with cinema dates

    According to The Nigerian Voice, Toyin Abraham shared an appreciation note after the Lagos premiere of “Oversabi Aunty” as the film heads into its cinema release window.

    Promo clips and posts have leaned into “girls’ outing” energy—encouraging themed dress-up and group cinema pull-ups as part of the marketing push.

    Instagram Reel (Promo): “Pin the date 18th dec.”
    YouTube (Event coverage): “hits cinemas nationwide on Thursday, 18 December 2025.”

    Analysis/Echotitbits take: Community-driven turnout remains Nollywood’s most reliable box-office tactic—premiere glamour plus “everybody go watch” mobilisation. Watch for audience reaction clips on TikTok/Reels and whether word-of-mouth sustains the run beyond opening weekend.
