Blast From the Past - Chris Okotie Before and Now
One of the means through which Rita Dominic's movie, The Meeting, established the age difference between their two main characters was signposting the generational gap using music. Ejura asked her mother for music of the eighties and I Need Someone by Chris Okotie came up.
Later, she and her much older love interest sang it to each other before a very sweet love scene.
I danced to that song as a kid at birthday parties, cos it was such a hit that it became an anthem of sorts.
Chris Okoties is now a General Overseer of Household of God church and has contested several times for the presidency of Nigeria.
Enjoy the music from his pop musician days below...
