About "Hello, Moto" novel
There is witchcraft in science and a science to witchcraft. Both will conspire against you eventually.
We were three women. Three friends. We had goals, hopes and dreams. We had careers. Two of us had boyfriends. We owned houses. We all had love. Then I made these… wigs. I gave them to my two friends.
The three of us put them on. The wigs were supposed to make things better. But something went wrong. Like the nation we were trying to improve, we became backward. Instead of giving, we took.
In a recent interview with Pulse Nigeria, Keira Hewatch who plays Rain in the upcoming movie spoke about the readiness of Nigerians for a sci-fi movie.
"I think that we are playing it safe with the comedy. I'm sure Nigerians can appreciate a wider range of storylines if they are done properly," she said.
"Hello, Rain" aims to begin festival and screening tours in the first quarter of 2018.
