The majestic, classy, informative, and savvy masterpiece of research and style is a powerful means of communicating with both young and old creative minded, and media-aware generation that sees information as part of everyday conversation, and an integral part of our life. The online database offers additional advantage of being (potentially) dynamic: new information is published almost immediatel

y, and provides a faster, more robust, current and convenient answers to skeptics, critics and esteemed searchers. Users will verify facts for articles, awards, newspapers, magazines, festivals, films, music, gossips, speeches and Television broadcast. It is the first of its kind in Nigeria, profiling authoritative biographical data with email addresses, statistics, current locations and contact phone numbers of filmmakers, directors, screenwriters, producers, celebrities and major stakeholders in the Nigerian Entertainment community; it also identified distinguished personalities whom are achievers and fun-loving creatures. Some who are famous for their unusual behavior, others for their extravagance, snobbery, womanizing, and sense of humor or controversial lifestyles. Urbanmingles Entertainment Media Limited being the company behind these projects is proud of the continuity of all of its projects, most of which have been streamlined into the Nigeria’s rebranding campaign, using information as a tool and power for the individuals of today’s complex and fast-moving world. Although Nollywood‘s emergence as a viable film culture in Africa resulted in many myths festering about its origin; but with this encyclopedia project which generally contain concise biographical information, history and statistics of Nollywood and the Arts and Culture sector; the public do not have any excuse or ignorance about who’s doing what, where and how in those sectors. The project remains an ongoing compilation and is by no means complete in reflecting all the people that have made the greatest impacts but every attempt was made to reflect the little information published as accurate as possible.

Synopsis:
Emir Sa’ad magnificent and the second wife Amina hold the title Queen Amina, which was established during her time. The slave with a Secret who despite her enslavement carried herself with the dignity of a queen, made the Emir consort and later the legal wife of Emir Sa’ad.
She is also considered one of the most powerful and influential women in Ottoman history. While the title "Queen" was not a formal part of the Ottoman court structure, but Amina’s influence and power within the empire, particularly due to her position as Emir’s consort, later a wife and mother of his heir, effectively placed her in a position equivalent to that of a queen. She played a significant role in Ottoman politics and even influenced policies, making her a unique and powerful figure in Ottoman history.

Early life and rise to power:
Amina was born in Gbagyiza and was captured and brought to the Ottoman Empire as a slave. She rose through the ranks of the harem to become Emir Sa ad’s favorite concubine and eventually his legal wife which automatically elevated her status and power within the Ottoman court.

Influence and Legacy:
She became one of the most powerful and influential women in Ottoman history, appointing slaves to serve in prominent positions, this made former slave women especially her slave friends to reign during the period known as the Sultanate of Women. This breaks Ottoman tradition, as she unprecedentedly freed all slave women and allowing them to marry people from the royal family against one of the oldest Ottoman customs.

Amina eventually wielded enormous power, influencing and playing a central role in the politics of the Ottoman Empire including handling of massive uprisings. She also played an active role in the affairs of the empire and even intervened in affairs between the empire and her former home Gbagyiza, apparently helping her people to reclaim the stolen Golden Nelas trophy.
