Freedom Foundation, a faith-based nonprofit organization of the House of Freedom, on the 17th of January invited key media houses to the media screening of the documentary series, My Lagos Diaries, at the FilmHouse IMAX Cinema, Lekki, Lagos, Nigeria.

According to Dr Tony Rapu, Senior Pastor at This Present House, while addressing the media: “My Lagos Diaries is a firsthand experience of challenges people face trying to survive in the city of Lagos. Since inception, the Freedom Foundation has transformed and positively impacted several lives in impoverished communities including but not limited to Ejigbo, Ijora, Iwaya, Bariga and Somolu, and it led to the creation of this video journal which documents 10 years of my team and I’s experiences in these areas.”

My Lagos Diaries’ ultimate goal is to sensitize the general public about the struggles of these underprivileged persons while providing an opportunity for interested individuals and organizations to support Freedom Foundation’s vision via donations and funding.

The public premiere of My Lagos Diaries will take place on the 21st of January 2017 and it will launch a 13-week documentary series which will begin airing online on Freedom Foundation’s YouTube channel as well as on television from the end of February. It will tell some of the real stories of rehabilitated prostitutes, armed robbers, drug addicts, beggars and other neglected individuals in the society.
