Nigeria film makers should sell more of historic stories and not the fake American wannabe nonsense stories. 10 Likes 1 Share |

I hate anything that portrays peoples tribe, culture or religion in bad light. No matter what, it just doesnt stand well with me especially when used for monetary gains or in movies. What audacity, a whole Eyo that we were born to reverend that attracts huge tourism. They should be sued also., not just petitioned. 7 Likes 4 Shares |

To me all I saw was a nice movie that just sits well with our culture I have always seen the Eyo masquerade of the yorubas but neva knew their history until this amazing movie..a guy using it for criminal activities doesn't mean its evil or bad even the movie called dem guardians of kings to the oda syd so they really are amazing spirits So let us just enjoy our movie and different cultures in peace I wish someone will act on igbo or hausa traditions too 1 Like |

Everything about that film is how isale eko is. From Adeniji to Agarawu, to Itafaji, to Araoloya to Balogun to Idumota. That's exactly life they are living there. Maybe everything has changed now tho. 5 Likes |

Isale Eko was and is a crime hub as I have had my share of their illegal and forced tax, even though I'm not sure it is as violent as portrayed in the movie. However, they shouldn't have portrayed the Eyo masquerade that way, it belittle the culture of the indegenous people. 5 Likes 1 Share |

The Benin Isale EKO, is a great heritage of Lagos at large. It’s was the genesis of how the whole Lagos was formed. The great Benin warriors and their powerful conquest should have rather be showcased when making movie related to Isale Eko 3 Likes |

Honestly speaking.. I am so ashamed of the crop of Yoruba actors and actresses we have in this generation with the way they paint Yoruba culture and tradition in bad light.. like any idi0t with small cash now can go and shoot film to paint other people's belief in bad light. I recall an incident in Ojuelegba many years back while I was passing somewhere under the bridge, they were having a masquerade festival (very common in Ojuelegba) where the masquerades were dancing around with canes and all.. one could see the fear in most people especially women shouting Jesus Jesus and running upandan. I was just going on my own when one of the masquerades on sighting me prostrated flat on the ground like one paying homage to a king.. he got up and we chatted as if we had known from somewhere. Long story short, I gave the masquerade something and went my way. I am a Christian but I recognize that there is tradition and that's what some of our people believe in, which I respect. Yorubas still have a long way to go.. see Bollywood na, always portraying the good and sweet part of their culture, but here our people are just not it. Too bad. 8 Likes 1 Share |

And now the people of the community say the movie is like a tool of destruction to thier history case number 2. This is looking for trouble oo, e be like sey these ones want persecution from both angle cuz they want to japa go abroad, lol. We all die here 1 Like |

lilachiever: You see it's one thing to be educated and it's another to be intelligent. Most of this generation Yorubas are not intelligent sorry to say.. but it's the fact. Eyo masquerade that is like hallmark of Isale Eko people is what some degenerates cum yeyebrities are trying to trash in the mud. Such a pity. I'm glad the indigenes have spoken.. let them ban the movie and sanction all the actors that played part in that movie. Big shame on Actors guild of Nigeria and the other bodies of actors in the country. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

All the movie producers need to defend themselves in the court of law is already written just before the movie’s opening scene…’ALL CHARACTERS THAT APPEAR IN THIS WORK ARE FICTITIOUS. ANY RESEMBLANCE TO REAL PERSONS LIVING OR DEAD IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL’ Lobatan! 9 Likes |
