Award-Winning Filmmaker Albert Santos Gayo Reminisces on His Inspiring Encounter with Iconic Nigerian Actress and Evangelist Mama G in the UAE

Dubai, UAE — Award-winning filmmaker, influencer, cultural creative director, entertainer, and digital branding strategist Albert Santos Gayo looks back with gratitude and inspiration on one of his most memorable encounters in the UAE entertainment and faith community — working with the iconic Nigerian actress and evangelist Mama G during her visit to the United Arab Emirates.

Known across Africa and beyond for her powerful screen presence and unforgettable roles in Nigerian cinema, Mama G visited the UAE not only as a celebrated actress but also as a woman of faith, invited to deliver an evangelistic message to a large Christian gathering. For Albert Santos Gayo, the experience became more than a professional engagement — it became a meaningful spiritual and creative encounter.

Albert recalls being deeply excited and honored to meet Mama G before she delivered her message to the crowd.
“I was truly privileged to speak with Mama G before she went on stage,” Albert shared. “She was calm, composed, and very sincere. She spoke to me about the importance of her evangelism and how her message was not just about performance, but about touching lives.”

Albert was accompanied by Nigerian singer KDJ as they drove together to the Sheraton Hotel in Ajman, where the event was held. The gathering was attended by at least 500 Christians, mostly from the African community in the UAE, who welcomed Mama G with overwhelming applause and admiration.

The atmosphere was filled with excitement, worship, and anticipation. When Mama G was introduced, the crowd responded with one of the loudest applauses of the evening, a clear sign of the love and respect she commands from her supporters and followers.

Mama G delivered a powerful and memorable message that touched the hearts of the audience. She also opened with a song, creating a moving spiritual moment that set the tone for the gathering.

According to Albert, the message was one he would never forget.
“She had a wonderful message, and even her opening song carried so much meaning,” Albert said. “It was indeed a message to remember. You could feel the sincerity, the faith, and the power behind her words.”

One of the most unforgettable moments for Albert happened after their conversation, when Mama G personally handed him her contact number in Nigeria and invited him to collaborate with her on a film project in the future.

For Albert, who has spent decades in film, entertainment, events, and cultural storytelling, the invitation was both humbling and inspiring.

“When she gave me her personal number and invited me to shoot a film with her, I knew it was something special,” Albert added. “I believe that collaboration will happen one of these days. She is truly a woman of God.”

The encounter further strengthened Albert Santos Gayo’s belief in the power of film, faith, culture, and personal connection. As a filmmaker and creative director, Albert continues to build bridges between communities through storytelling, events, and meaningful collaborations across nationalities and cultures in the UAE and beyond.

Mama G’s visit to the UAE remains a significant memory for Albert — not only because of her iconic status in Nigerian cinema, but because of the grace, humility, and spiritual purpose she carried throughout the event.
Albert describes the experience as a reminder that true artistry goes beyond fame and performance. It can become a platform for faith, inspiration, and transformation.
