I think we have the awareness and experience to increase the value and the integrity and quality of the pictures that are coming out and the stories that are being told. We are not just a nation of Juju and jazz, we are not just a nation of village life, not just a nation of sugar daddies and girls trying to exploit men – I mean there’s that — but we can do so much more.”
