    “I sold some of my properties to produce Jagun Jagun” — Femi Adebayo

    Nollywood actor and filmmaker, Femi Adebayo Salami, has shared the extraordinary measures he took to produce his latest movie, “Jagun Jagun.”

    In an interview with the press, the box office King revealed that he sold his properties to fund the movie because he was determined to avoid seeking financial assistance from institutions or individuals.

    Femi Adebayo disclosed that “Jagun Jagun” is a multi-billion naira project, although he refrained from disclosing the exact amount he spent on it.

    “Jagun Jagun is a multi-billion naira project and I can’t say the exact amount I spent on it on shooting. I used the proceeds of Agbeshinkole to produce Jagun Jagun. I was working on not getting funded by finance houses and individuals. At a point, I was out of finance and because I had faith that the project would work, I sold my properties.”

    In the interview, he also revealed that his biggest challenge now is trying to surpass the success of “Jagun Jagun” in his future projects.

    While working on “King of Thieves,” he was confident that his next project would surpass it, but he no longer possesses that same level of certainty.

    “My worst nightmare is that I have to be at Jagun Jagun with my next production.”

    Femi also shared insights into how he built the warrior school featured in the movie from scratch. He faced challenges with land ownership, and although the school was partially built, issues arose when the land’s owners changed their minds about the sale.

    The inspiration behind “Jagun Jagun” came from Femi Adebayo’s desire to convey a social message to Nigerian youths while embracing cultural elements. The movie aims to address social issues within the country’s youth and environment.
