The rest of the SS actors are TONTO, OBOT ETUK, SHAN GEORGE, KATE HENSHAW, SUSAN PATRICK, DARKORE EGBUSON ETC. In the same vein,we have numerous Yoruba and Northern actors in Nollywood who don't even what to act in yoruba movies. Somebody like OLU JACOBS will rather act the role of Igwe or Eze. Omotola will rather act like Chinwe instead of Bisi. Who stopped you from joining nollywood or who stopped others from joining nollywood? If you can't compete with them just shut your trap. The history of nollywood is always associated with Igbos and the same igbos have given Ghanians,Kenyans, Gambians,other Nigerians the platform to showcase their skills.
No doubt non igbos have a lot of contribution but otherside Nigeria,nollywood is associated with Igbo culture or people of igbo descent! The first words all Africans will use for Nigerians are Igweeee or Chinekeeee! All copied from nollywood movies. Ramsey Nouah and Omotola achieved popularity from Igbo culture English language movies.
Faliure in keeping up with igbo people resulted in Africa magic Hausa and Yoruba. Some people questioned the relevance of Africa mag Igbo snice Nollywood is already associated with Igbo language and Culture. The new cinema movies from Kunle is just a recent trend in Nigeria,yet Igbos have to be featured in these movies. Apaye, a Niger Delta movie had to feature popular Igbo actors to sell. Last year, a Yoruba movie maker had to drag Mike Ezuruonye(Igbo) and Desmond Elliot(half Igbo) into a yoruba movie. Igbos have achieved prominence and popularity through nollywood,no need reemphasizing it.
By now,you should know how Igbos are fiercely competitive even amongst people from the same family. If you can't beat them,you join them and stop ranting rubbish!

How I wish the New Government can Make Yorubawood, Kannywood n Nollywood join together to be One..


Una new Government can never merge the three bodies together, so you Lazy and shameless Yorubas should concentrate on growing your Yorubawood and not trying to reap where you never sowed.

Ihuomadinihu:

How many SS people testified that they are deprived from joining nollywood. How many of them are interested? Igbos dominate nollywood,nobody will stop you if you want to join them. Just stop talking nonesense!
CHICO EJIRO, AMATA FAMILY, ANGA WALTAR, LIZ BENSON, IVIE OKUJIE, HILDA DOKUBO, IBINABO FIBERISIMA, EMEM ISONG, UMEH BISHOP, AY MAKUN, REGINA ASKIA, EVE ESIN, MONALISA CHINDA, CAROLINE EKANEM, SAM DEDE, MBONG AMATA, INI EDO, CHARLES NOVIA, TARILA THOMPSON etc are from the South South, yet they have all made it in nollywood.
When you lack the TALENT and GUTS, you blame it on tribalism.
What Nonesense!
Tribalism ko, fool ni.
