Nollywood actor and producer, Femi Adebayo, on Tuesday launched a new entertainment complex, Euphoria 360 Hub, a film and media production facility in Oregun, Lagos.
The facility was inaugurated by the Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, at an event attended by actors, filmmakers, content creators and other key players in the entertainment sector.
The centre will serve as the head office of Adebayo’s production outfit, Euphoria360 Media Ltd, and is designed to provide production, post-production, distribution and capacity-building support for creatives.
It is equipped for cinema-standard film production, events, music videos and other forms of content creation, with facilities for sound and post-production work.

“The commissioning represents the realisation of a dream that began as a vision and the development is a significant milestone in my journey as an actor, filmmaker and entrepreneur,” he disclosed.
Expressing appreciation to those who supported the project, Adebayo said:
“My gratitude goes out to my family, colleagues and supporters who have contributed to the realisation of the project.”
Veteran Yoruba cinema practitioner and father of the filmmaker, Adebayo Salami, expressed pride in his son’s accomplishment.
“I am deeply proud of my son and what he has achieved with this project. Seeing him reach this stage is an emotional and fulfilling moment for me as a father.
“This achievement is a testament to his hard work, dedication and passion for the creative industry,” he noted.
The inauguration attracted prominent figures in the Nigerian movie industry, including Dele Odule, Yemi Sodimu, Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD), Odunlade Adekola and Kunle Afolayan, among others.
Prior to its formal inauguration, the facility had been used as a location for Davido’s music video, “B4 B4,” featuring Mayorkun and FOLA.
