Nigerian highlife musician, Chinedu Okoli a.k.a Flavour N’Abania, has reportedly received $3M (N1.7bn) as advance payment for his biopic on Amazon Prime Video.
Further emerging reports suggest that Amazon Prime is set to kick off production of the singer’s documentary, which makes him the first African to enjoy such largesse.
Reacting to the feat, netizens wondered why the music star has refused to announce it on any of his social media channels.
Confirming the story, a Twitter user wrote; “A Nigerian musician received $3m as advance payment for his biopic on Amazon Prime. Guess who the musician is?”

Worthy of mention, a biopic (short for “biographical picture”) is a type of motion picture that tells the life story of a non-fictional, real person.
