This is the first episode of The Afrikan Lion Podcast, hosted by Ọnuọra Abuah — filmmaker, educator, and founder of AEA Films.

In this powerful conversation, Ọnuọra sits with Ɔbenfo (Professor) Ọbádélé Kambon, founder of Abibitumi, scholar, linguist, and cultural warrior. Together they discuss the reclamation of Black consciousness, the Abibitumi Abibifahodie Film Festival, and the broader movement to restore Black = African storytelling to Black = African hands.

🎬 Note: This episode was recorded prior to the Abibitumi Film Festival (Nov 28–30, 2025) but due to extended post-production and editing, it is being released now. The festival has already concluded successfully — however, its message and mission continue.

🦁 Topics include:
– The importance of African languages in liberation
– The legacy of Pan-African thinkers and educators
– The need for independent African cinema
– The philosophy behind Abibitumi
– Ọnuọra’s new film Catching a Thief
– ỌNUỌRA Menswear and creative African entrepreneurship
