This is the kind of movie they want to win awards on o...

Those movies are the real reason Nollywood is 3rd most robust movie industry in the whole wide world behind Hollywood and Bollywood..

That you feel you can create a content and it is graced with large audiences in and out of Nigeria is because these movies made it possible... Tell me any Yoruba actor that is big outside the shores of this country Nigeria, just one expect Olu Jacobs and Omotola that Igbos made!!

Ewedegubbler:


which of the Nollywoods and who are they by the ways?

Fool, they were already making movies when your fellow Igbos were still running naked in the bush.

YorubaMyKids:


But is the bold a lie??
You can top Igbos in some endeavors but certainly not in movies abeg, you can say music but certainly not movies. In Movies Igbos are the Hollowood of Africa, not only Nigeria.

With submissions like this, i fail to understand the thought process of some of you.

anonymous1759:





You dey mind them. After winning they'll still use it to insult other tribe with their FUFU chest to brag.

You know them. When they win, it’s fair and it’s all about hard work. When they lose, conspiracy theories will be flying up and down.

Mbilla:
lol.... Slow poky idiot yoruba vulture. Continue deceiving yourself vulture

Insulting me does not change anything
We are behind
I am a professional Cinematographer ans i am talking from the professional point of view. No need for insult please. You can argue without insulting my personality

MelesZenawi:
Eze ndi ala

Apart from that, there are many things that needs to be stopped in nollywood.

This Igbo-yoruba collabo movies like wedding party needs to be stopped entirely.

Such movies doesn't promote anything but corrupts blood and encourages external marriages and infiltration of strange bloods.


I am yet to see thee importance of those movies to the society.


South Korea acts Korean movies

China acts Chinese movies same as India, Americans and the brits


Then why will here we will be corrupting our cultures with nonsense movies of no background.

Such movies should be discouraged seriously in Nollywood.

That collabo should end in interest of people's culture.

We have allowed petty directors destroy our culture because of one collabo.


You act movies with people you share cultural ties with to re invent the happenings of old..

the last time I check I thought igbo and Yoruba are Nigerians,

dignity33:
The only thing I will said that igbo fail to know in Nigeria is tribalism, put Hausa or Yoruba in charge of anything only what you will see is there brothers but igbos failed to know this. Since Nigeria existence igbo has being fighting for one Nigeria but Yoruba and Hausa are fighting for there tribe that is why they see igbos as not being political sophisticated because they only vote for there tribe, it started back from Awolowo time.

Don't start what you can't finish. Your tribe eliminated all leaders and founding fathers of Nigeria from other tribes and left leaders from your tribe untouched. Your people hijacked power and still went ahead to protect the coup plotters and moved them to a safe zone, your region. Was that the best way your tribe knew to fight for one Nigeria?

MelesZenawi:


Well I don't blame you.

We have allowed Nigerian projects to be destroying our cultures and values if not such marriages will be hard to exist.

you will die hating mehn sex between a yoruba and ibo is what is hurting you your mind is viciously low

Simbrixton:
walahi i love you my man u be better omoluabi dese idiots only know tribalism

Brother I hail o.

Don’t mind those guys. When they win it’s merit, but when others win its tribalism.

FrLukas:


Lol.

And when a Yoruba man is about to wed his Igbo bride in the West, you should go and also bomb the place.

I know that is an achievement these days in Yoruba land, to end up with an Igbo woman. Why can't other tribes brag of wedding a Yoruba woman too?, of course no one wants to have a Tinubu lookalike for an offspring, how now??

Tribalistic He goat � from the east with your 100k movie that is been shot in one remote village in Enugu . All the movies that won deserves an award � talking about Ratnik,God’s Calling even King of boys that recorded a high success did not win a single award . All the names he mentioned no longer feature in recent movies so what is he talking about . Your beef for Yorubas will run you down

Crayonforest:
My dear Igbo brothers let us kiss the truth for once, Yorubas are ahead of us in the movies industry. Their story lines are pwerful and their cast knows how to interprete their role. Even though I don't understand nor speak Yoruba but through subtitle I love watching their films. Please my fellow Igbo Brothers, it is no doubt that we are the founding fathers of Nollywood but let us go back to the drawing board and up our game.

Bro, I commend your use of reasoning over sentiment. But let me correct an impression, Igbo did not make Nollywood. The Nollywood English that became popular in the late 90s was meant to have national outlook because it's produced with the general language. But the preponderance of Igbo business men and producer made then have an Igbo outlook with the way they prioritize Igbo representation. That is what I called domineering tendency. Even the tradition showcased in the cultural role were Igbo tradition. No attempt to display the culture of other tribes. But when Tade Ogidan, another veterans Nollywood producer of those days, you see many brilliant Yoruba actors and actresses. Tade Ogidan doesn't exclude Igbo characters too.

vanunu:
Is zubby a Yoruba name?

So pls, what is the full meaning of zubby

alfredilly:


The real reason Azikiwe hate Awolowo and plainted the seed of hatred in the mind of his Igbo follower is what you people still manifest. Azikiwe was ruling the west and left the east to others Igbo stooges in a display of Igbo domineering nature and he achieve that to some extent if not for Awolowo brilliance and charisma. Go and ask, Igbo were dominating every parastatal in South West. A good example is university of Ibadan where Azikiwe influence made the entire university organogram dominated by Igbo. It was too obvious when professor Oladele Ajose was snubbed though he who was well position to become the vice Chancellor. An Igbo man was promoted instead and the frustrated professor left to became a vice Chancellor at the newly founded university of Ife now Obafemi Awolowo University. It took Awo to rescure the south west from what would have been a slavery when he came back from Britain and defeated Azikiwe in the battle or SW leadership.

Azikiwe never hated Awolowo. And the same Awolowo was pursuing a Yoruba agenda while Zik was chasing a nationalist one. Even when the Igbos said let us fight the Hausas and form.our country, Awolowo only taught of his selfish ambition. Even Zik did not support Ojukwu. And you are ranting about igbo domination. The fulani that told you Igbos wanted to dominate where are they Now? Are they not ravaging your lands in an attempt to dip the Koran into the Atlantic ocean? Your ethnic sentiments are beclouding your sense of reasoning.

sofiscatedmoron:
be said organizers,, which primary school did you go to

If i give you a response that suites your question, you go say yoruba people are also leading the savage industry.

UnknownT:
Goan sit down. You think say na all those movies you dey feature wey Dem dey use 1 week act parts 1-4? Eze ndi ala, Nwa Eze ndi ala, Mpa onye eze ndi ala etc

At least na dat one I like pass this una Lagos fake life movies!

How can you understand since you are a product of free education.

Tell me if Yorubas deserve football awards more than Igbos too in Nigeria? since my thought process should align with yours then..

Taye4j:


One thing igbos fail to recognize is the fact that God has blessed everybody with one talent or the other irrespective of your Tribe, Nationality, or colour. The only difference is your ability to realise you have it and harness it. Those Igbos always claim maginalusation when it suits them. I bet they will still crying again very with the current Yorubas footballers coming up. By the time the Yorubas dominate the National team, they will start crying. Imagine, they've been winning BBNaija all this while, no one raise an eyebrow. By the time Yorubas start dominating, the story will change.

Oba mewa, igba mewa love ni ile aye

My brother. Over the years I have never even bothered to do inventory of who plays for our super eagles.. Coincidence that Mikel, okocha or KANU have been our best legs over the years? I do not know..however we all celebrate their excellence. These people should do same rather than pull the ethnic card every time. They are still pained about Soyinka's award THIRTY FOUR years ago. They still blame 'us Genevieve not winning that Oscar abi na Grammy.

Ijawwomaninoyo:
But they see nothing wrong with Igbos representing 36 states in every beauty contest.
Always feeling sidelined!

Is it our fault our women are more beautiful and brainy than the rest of the tribes?
Personally i get very angry when i see my tribe's women representing disgusting regions like that South West

Stevecovey:

Are u minding them?

The new living in bondage he’s complaining about, which won 8 awards, was produced by an Igbo man charlesofplay. They can’t be satisfied unless they’re winning all of the award categories.


PS - king of boys is a 2018 movie that won several awards at the 2019 AMVCA. Sola sobowale won the best actress category. They were just nominated again this year.

AMVCA did not hold in 2019

Have a nice day.

Londonland:
the last time I check I thought igbo and Yoruba are Nigerians,

They were Nigerians by almagamation and forced marriage again in 1967 not that both has anything in common to act such movies.

It should be totally discouraged.

barrypro:
Lets just call ourselves Nigerians and leave this tribalism. It doesnt end well.

Yeah. Correct talk

When did they blame you for it??
Shameless liars always expose themselves..

YorubaMyKids:


Fucck you, you don't own Lagos why don't you turn Oshogbo to Lagos since you are progressive cone headed children of fallen demon that like to shortchange merit for mediocrity. How many Yoruba junk actors are big outside Nigeria expect Omotola and Olu Jacobs that we made?

Point of correction, Olú Jacob have been appearing in foreign movies before acting in Nigeria. Movies like : The Mercenaries, Death in the Voyageur, etc.

Simbrixton:
you will die hating mehn sex between a yoruba and ibo is what is hurting you your mind is viciously low

Tell your men to respect themselves.

Atleast our men respect themselves.

Dominatrix:
Being a tribalistic bigot is low self-esteem. Yes I'm talking to you (Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo). Take 3 seats in the back if you fall in this category.

We know which side you are!

Stop acting patriotic.

UnknownT:
Goan sit down. You think say na all those movies you dey feature wey Dem dey use 1 week act parts 1-4? Eze ndi ala, Nwa Eze ndi ala, Mpa onye eze ndi ala etc

Must you condemn someone talent before commenting, at least he can beat his chest that if he's dying today he have attained a great name for himself, whether award or no award.

Jetleeeee:
Kmt

Any award dominated by Yorubas is biased to these ones. Yorubas live rent free in their heads. Dem no dey ever get sense. Isn't this the same tribe that developed the whole Jerusalem? Smh. From developing the whole Jerusalem to crying about awards. How the mighty have fallen.

Headies, AMAA, AMVCA, it's Yorubas winning these awards. Instead of these Potopoto Hebrews to ask how it's being done, they go on social media to post nonsense. We see it all the time. Especially during Headies. Jude from PSquare said the same nonsense. One MC akonuche said the same crap last year.

The problem with these folks is delusion. It's like they expect every other ethnic group to remain stagnant. Lol. The world is moving fast. And people are moving with it. Everyone is competing. No one is going to wait for you.


We're no more in Aki and Pawpaw era. There is crazy filming technology out there. Check out Diji Ajerogba or Tayo Aina's videos on Youtube. It's a new order in the Nigerian movie industry. And Yorubas are the ones making things happen. Same thing with Music, Fashion and tech. We had this conversation like 4 years ago! On this same forum. It's been like for a while. And if Yorubas also decide to sleep, another ethnic group will take over

Same way you have more educated Yoruba youths learning how to code is the same way you have more young Igbo youths learning to trade. You'll find more Yorubas boxing, you'll find more people from Ekiti and Delta states in sprint races. It's not a coincidence. Some tribes are just into certain things, while others are not. It is what it is.

You people from that side should grow up

Abeg which Yoruba that are in Delta State,abeg face your brOm roof and leave ss and se alone.
Mind you cowardd,I am an ija w man.

If a movie 10 years Ago could gain recognition today ( perfect picture) all those names mentioned deserve more.... it’s really one sided,

Omoluabi16:
Have a nice day.

No why not organise football awards and give both male and female category to Oshoala na?? At least she can pack all the awards since Yorubas choose mediocrity over merit because of tribalism.

MelesZenawi:



The movie collabo should be stopped.

Yorubas should act their own movies


Igbos should act their own movies....thats how it suppose to be. We shouldn't be encouraging such.

In such collabo movies, the directors are always yorubas...

That should stop....What cultural ties do Igbos have with yorubas to be acting such movies..

Try and be reasonable.

If i were an actor i wouldn't associate myself with any production that has a yoruba as part of their crew members. I don't know why our people are stupid and failing to learn. You don't dine with the devil
