This thoughts informed a call by the Special Adviser (SA) to the Imo State Governor on Diaspora Affairs, Chief Cllr. Celia Osakwe-Hibbert on Imo Diasporans to venture into setting up world class studios in the South Eastern state as part of combined efforts to harvest grassroots talents and help boost local economy.
