It's a reminder of the power and potential of Nigeria's rapidly growing film industry.
It is the world's second-largest film industry after India based on number of productions, with an average of 2,000 movies released annually.
The movie also has been lauded as signifying the potential of the film industry in Nigeria as well as across Africa.
In Nigeria, the movie industry is at “the point right now where the world needs to take notice,” Effiong said.
He said that's because "The Black Book is a film by Black people, Black actors, Black producers, Black money 100%, and it’s gone ahead to become a global blockbuster."
