Wale Adenuga Production, Film production studio in Lagos, Nigeria
Wale Adenuga Production is a media company in Lagos that makes television series and feature films from its production studios and operates multiple facilities across the city. The company also runs the PEFTI Film Institute, where students receive training in film production, television, and music production.
The company was founded in 1978 by Wale Adenuga after he graduated from the University of Lagos, starting with comic publications before moving into film production. Over time, it grew into one of Nigeria's significant producers of local television content.
The studio created television series that show Nigerian family life and everyday stories, particularly through shows like Super Story and Papa Ajasco that became popular with viewers. These programs reflect local traditions and humor that audiences in homes across the country could recognize.
Visitors can see the PEFTI facilities to get a sense of how film and television training works and watch how professional productions come together. It helps to plan ahead since access may depend on professional requirements or scheduled visits.
WAPTV, a separate television channel, launched in 2012 and broadcasts content independently from Nigeria's major national networks. This private channel lets the company control and distribute its own programming.
