Do you think premiering 'The First Lady' on YouTube at 5pm will raise enough ticket proceeds to support Alex Ekubo's family?

I hope the YouTube platform doesn't take a big cut before the proceeds reach Ekubo's family.

Focusing on YouTube premieres alone might limit audience reach compared to traditional cinema releases for fundraising.

Maybe Omoni Oboli could share regular updates on donation totals and family support to maintain transparency and encourage more viewers.
