Abstract
Hyginus Ekwuazi is one of the pioneer scholars of film studies in Nigeria. He completed his undergraduate education in the Department of English at the University of Ibadan, an MA and later a Ph.D. in the Department of Theatre Arts of the same university. His Ph.D. thesis, which investigated the context of film production in Nigeria, developed into the pioneer book Film in Nigeria . Ekwuazi’s scholarship spans a period of about forty years, which has interestingly contributed to and influenced the careers of a much younger generation of students and scholars in the field. This article is a tribute to the intellectual labour and accomplishment of Hyginus Ekwuazi, as an administrator, film scholar, theorist, writer, laureate and intellectual of a remarkable reputation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
