News reaching me says Ini Edo has been banned for a year with effect from 17th April for gross misconduct. \\
Does anyone know what happened?

IT might be a good thing as she is currently saturating the market. I didn't mind her at first but now I'm getting sick of her. I could do with a break!

But to answer your question,  No I don't know what happened LOL

What is wrong is wrong. You should not ban an actress from her means of livelihood. She must be allowed to work.

Didn't a whole loads o actors get banned last year, which what contributed to her coming up? I'm sure she will not starve. she will be fine!

What is wrong is wrong. Her being fine is besides the point, she must be allowed to contribute her quota.

Dont know how true but I learnt she was alleged to be sleeping with people she roled alongside with in movies. Rememeber there was also the rumour that DBanj's why me was sung for her.

What does that have to do with anything? What concerns the Nigerian movie officials with her personal business?

I think banning people from their means of livelihood is wrong. Afterall showbiz is supposed to be dominated by scandals and some over indulgences. That's what make those in it to be different from the ordinary boring people around. We often hear about many scandals going on in Hollywood, but never about banning those involved, instead controversy and scandals increase their popularity. Ban a talented artist and you are burying his or her God given talents. Whatever Ini Edo has done, she does not deserve such a hash sanction. Afterall they've all got one skeleton or the other in their cupboards.[color=#000099][/color]

Nah wa o, if thats true then these "ogas" will be choosing husbands for the actress
what about the guys shes alleged to be sleeping with?

_{Nice blog Ms BS}

what would she have done apart from sleeping around and going around half nude as usual?abeg make we leave matter for mathias o jare.

dupebaby:

SHE MUST HAVE DONE SOMETHING BAD, 2 BE BANNED,

people dont get ban for nothing sake

How is that a reason to be banned from working?

They ban her because the just wanted to do it. If they ban her for her dressing then they are very stupid and uncivilized,

forget it, it can never be because of her dressing. that will be so stupid

so what slowpoke has the right to ban actresses and actor. what kind of country is nigeria becoming, so much for democracy.

nigeria is not turning into anything its "we" that lived in are the the problem

Banning actors in Naija is just the beginining. Wait till Yar'dua takes over with his Sharia laws. U'll see a reversal of all the gains of Nollywood. It is only under a religious pretence that some fool or fools would appoint themselves judges unto others. Actors and actress make a living by entertainment, and as long as their action don't contravene known civil laws, they must be allowed to work.

and u think this sharia thing will solve it?

Every time Naija takes 3 steps forward-- to civilization/progress, sometime crazy happens to push her back 6 steps. Developing local talents, a la Nollowood is a small baby step toward Hollywood, Bollywood, etc, but when some "holy men" take it upon themselves to moderate what and how actors act, then na trouble so. Sharia will neither help Nollywood nor help Nigeria. Got it?

i never agreed on that before

If truly based on these reasons as attached the Nigerian market needs more than enough explanation to be convinced 'cos as earlier said people should not be banned from their means of living.

i think the baby deserves to be banned cos, a change makes the difference and she appeares on movies alway like a wild cat

This banning business is nonsense. Pure and simple.

Now dat she's banned, does it now mean dat she will go into music like Omotola,Genevieve and the rest?Who gave those ppl authority by d way?Abeg make dem live the gal alone.

There is a difference btw Nollywood and Hollywood.Hope she would deserve to be banned in the face of Nollywood,i feel so sorry for the young actress that just started her race in Nollywood,we are not region in western world,but my people,Nigeria as a culture.Ask Nigerian and Ask African.Ini Edo should follow our culture.

who is Ini Edo?

Ini Edo?

She is quite a beauty physically.She will do well in hollywood fantasy world,nigeria is not there yet.I can see the high dreams in her eyes.

@redsun, yeah she's hot all right. Thanx tornadoz, i would never have known who she was, was getting really lost in all the banter.
