The recording stage of the first season of iconic TV drama series, ‘The Village Headmaster’ had been successfully-concluded, and the promotional trailer had started airing across Nigeria.
This is coming months after it was announced that the Nigerian Television Authority and Wale Adenuga Productions had embarked on a ground-breaking partnership to revive the epic TV drama series.
The recording took two months before completion – started in November 2020 and was concluded in December 2020.
