Legendary filmmaker Tunde Kelani has urged young Nigerian directors to look inward for stories and embrace technology, saying Artificial Intelligence is a tool to enhance, not erase, African creativity.
Kelani made this assertion, while speaking at the maiden edition of Directors Guild of Nigeria, DGN Week and Awards 2026 in Lagos. The internationally acclaimed director, popularly known as TK, was honoured with a Special Recognition Award for his contributions to the Nigerian film industry.
