The question is ...which Nollywood actor can win an Oscar?...not will win.... but from the potential we have seen who can rise to that level ... who has that 'it' if let's say was given Lupita's role. I would say Genevieve. ... no doubt would need some polishing... just a few would need heavy polishing and the rest... grinding or discarded.

I think Mercy Johnson. She would have played that role better than lupita the only problem is the nude part. I don't think mercy will want to go nude considering our culture.

Rita Dominic

Bimbo Akintola

Iretiola Doyle

Genevive Nnaji

Mercy Johnson

Nse Etim

Adesuwa Etomi

Ivie Okujaye


Olu Jacobs

RMD

Pete Edochie

Enyinna Nwigwe


If giving the right script with the right production I feel this 12 people can Win an oscar.

Naaa I don't think she is. She is a good actress. Most times she gets stupid roles but still she gives her all. I am sure if giving a script like 12 years a slave she will do better than Lupita.

A movie shot in Nigeria and with Nigerian cast has won an oscar.

which is

None. Oscar is no joke. It took Jackie Chan 60yrs to be recognise by the academy no bollywood star has bagged it yet how much more a Nollywood star.

Mercy cannot even speak the right english in a movie to win an Oscar.

Haba. You want to compare what happened in the maid with 12 years a slave? You now fear God now. Mercy is almost nude, they strip Lupita completely naked. You can't compare both. We see everything for her body before the flogging. Which top actress for Nigeria don go topless for us to see the whole full boobs like the way some Hollywood actress do?

Halle berry that won her first Oscar did you see role she played and the way Billy Bob almost turned her into a porn star?

I still stand that Mercy Johnson would have giving a better performance than Lupita in that movie. It's just the nude part that would have been a problem.

They have scripts and lines they follow. Mercy speaking isn't bad as compared to some actress with accent.

Yea that's true. But I feel if giving the right script, right production, and if one is talented to interpret it perfectly, you can win. They all have what it takes. They just need that break to prove themselves.
