Duke said: “Soon, we will be having the WCA Standard Film, Cinema School, established in Lagos, which is a very big one for the filmmakers, especially females and the entertainment sector at large.

“Her Imperial Majesty Empress Dr. Madani has established a big one in California, where foreign actors and actresses are attending and studying Cinematography; so, she is bringing it to our door mouth.

“The WCA serves as an umbrella for an array of services; it’s a vessel seeking to identify pressing issues in order to make measurable changes in communities and businesses.

“She is passionate and seeking to add more peace and unity in form of royal for the world by her current association with over two thousand organisations.”
