Mother’s Love N100m box office milestone as Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde celebrates success and supports charity-focused film initiative
Nollywood actress and filmmaker Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has celebrated a major milestone as her latest film, Mother’s Love, surpassed N100 million at the box office, marking a strong commercial and social impact achievement.
The milestone was announced on April 13, 2026, through the film’s official Instagram page, where the production team expressed gratitude to audiences across Nigeria and West Africa for their support.
The team noted that the film’s release coincided with the Lent and Ramadan fasting period, which they described as a challenging window for cinema attendance, yet still recorded strong audience turnout.
They thanked viewers for their commitment, describing the support as consistent and deeply appreciated despite competing film releases during the same period.
Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde also shared a personal message, thanking fans for their response to the film and describing Mother’s Love as a special and meaningful project.
She encouraged audiences who had not yet seen the film to experience it, hinting at its emotional depth and unique storytelling approach.
Beyond its box office performance, the Mother’s Love N100m box office milestone has drawn attention due to the film’s philanthropic focus.
Reports confirm that proceeds from the project are being directed towards charity initiatives through Slum2School Africa, an organisation dedicated to supporting education for children in underserved communities.
The decision to channel earnings into social impact has positioned the project as one of the more socially driven Nollywood releases in recent years.
The announcement has also sparked mixed reactions online, with some praising the achievement and others debating its commercial performance and marketing strategy.
Supporters, however, have continued to commend the actress for combining filmmaking with social responsibility.
The development reinforces Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde’s standing as one of Nollywood’s enduring figures, with a career that spans both entertainment and advocacy.
Mother’s Love continues its cinema run as audiences and industry watchers track its performance beyond the N100 million benchmark.
