How can Igbo be claiming nollywood. Another of their numerous greediness and covetous nature showing again. When did English become the official language of igbos. It is the official language of Nigeria. Others produce films in their language and English, why can't igbos produce Igbo films too. No wonder, Multichoice can,t give them a station, because they don't have audience. It is either they are not proud of their culture or they don't have one. Simple. Even efik and ibibio people have started producing films in efik/ibibio Na wa o. When will they leave tHis their greedy nature. Nollywood refers to all the films produced in Nigeria. Therefore all the tribes in Nigeria own Nollywood. 4 Likes |

The revenue generating potential of Nigeria’s film industry otherwise known as Nollywood, was once again brought to the fore as the managing director of the Nigerian Export Import Bank (NEXIM), Robert Orya disclosed that the industry generated about N126.4bn ($800m) in the last three years, thus making it the third highest movie revenue earner in the world. With a consistent production of over 2,400 yearly titles in the past three years – 2,408; 2,514; and 2,621 in 2008, 2009 and 2010 respectively, NEXIM has revealed that Nigeria is Africa’s biggest movie producer. A 2011 data from the Nigerian Film and Videos Census Board (NFVCB) indicated that 1,743 and 1,234 movies were respectively registered and approved. The percentages produced in 2012 in the main languages were English (44% ), Yoruba (31%), Hausa (24%) and Igbo (1%). Meanwhile, the global film and entertainment industry is reported to have raked in about N14.3trillion ($90.6billion) revenue in 2010, with an increased projection of N16.2trillion ($102billion) in 2012. In global rankings, Hollywood still sets the pace closely followed by India’s Bollywood with Nollywood coming in at third place. -Nigerian Entertainment Today |

Area-Fada:This is the reason why i laugh when some people say that Pidgin should be made our official language because it can be understood by everyone. I thought so some years ago, atleast for Southern Nigeria until i met several Yoruba people that couldn't converse in pidgin let alone English. It's also evident in some Igbos who live in Igboland and much more common in the North. That's why it's easier for someone to learn Hausa when living in the north or Yoruba when leaving in the west especially states other than Lagos. It's not the same for some states in the South-South because the number of ethnicities in those places are numerous, so people would rather speak pidgin and as you alluded, even old women can speak. it has become more like a lingua franca in those parts. |
