Don Singles International (DSI), a foremost showbiz and personality promoter in Nigeria, is set to launch DSI Movies to create opportunities for talented youths seeking careers in the Nigerian film industry.
The plan was disclosed by Dominic Nwuzor, Chief Executive Officer of Don Singles International, while speaking with newsmen in Abuja over the weekend. Nwuzor, also known as Don Singles, said Nigeria is filled with young people with creative talent but many are unable to find platforms to express themselves due to systemic barriers, limited infrastructure, and economic challenges.
According to him, unlocking this potential requires a shift from focusing only on “employment” to prioritising “empowerment” through investment in infrastructure, skills acquisition, and structured platforms for mentorship.
He noted that the nation’s film industry ecosystem has the capacity to absorb many unemployed youths and contribute meaningfully to national economic growth if properly organised and supported.
The DSI helmsman, who hails from Nibo town in Awka South Local Government Area of Anambra State, said DSI Movies is designed as a grassroots-focused project. He explained that the initiative will be unveiled in his community and will enlist emerging talents from Awka North and Awka South, across Anambra State and beyond.
“Our emerging talents and creatives must be gainfully engaged and given the right spotlight to be discovered, and that is what DSI Movies is set to do in line with our broader objectives at Don Singles International,” he said.
Nwuzor added that “there are vast opportunities in the film industry for every talented and passionate youth out there, including acting, directing, cinematography and many other roles.”
He further said that “DSI Movies will bring emerging talents together to work with seasoned stars for productions and mentorship.”
He said the initiative aligns with his long-standing commitment to youth empowerment and to promoting socio-cultural and economic development within his community.
Nwuzor disclosed that the project will feature an array of stars, including artistes signed to the DSI label, such as Nollywood actor Smith Nnebe and others.
With nearly three decades of experience in Nigeria’s creative space, Don Singles International is recognised for discovering and promoting talents. He recalled that the late Nollywood comic legend John Okafor, popularly known as Mr Ibu, was one of the foremost artists associated with the DSI brand. The launch is expected soon statewide.
