I would describe myself as a filmmaker, period.

As a filmmaker you make your films with the audience you want to attract in mind.

While my work is usually about the Igbo woman experience, there are many aspects of my female characters that women everywhere can and do relate to.

The audience I'm targeting doesn't care about the language spoken in the films they watch. They're interested in more important things like story, performance, cinematography etc.

I have loved filmed from when I was a child, but I never considered it as a future career.

There are a lot of filmmakers I love whose work doesn't inspire mine at all. For example: Quentin Tarantino. From his films you can see that he has a wicked sense of humour, and I love that!

Nollywood is a genre, and not the entire Nigerian film industry.

My favourite films are in languages I don't understand.

It was never a deliberate decision to make films about the 'woman experience'.

I entered the film industry sprinting, but not for long.

I prefer to discover new talent by holding open auditions.

I think that, as with marriage, you just know when it's time to have kids.

To be at peace in any endeavour, we must release our need to control the outcome.

Though introverts are drained by interaction, we can take immense pleasure in watching the scene around us.

And I guess I realized at that moment that I really did love her. Because there was nothing to gain, and that didn't matter.

For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith, But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.

I grew up in a time when it would never have occurred to anyone to tell me there was anything I couldn't do.
