I came across this hilarious clip of a "white" missionary speaking Igbo. Its supposed to be set sometime in the 1940s or 30s.

It cannot be set so early, for if it were their breasts would not be covered. Why are Africans so ashamed of their traditional ways and dress?

This man is not white, why dont these nollywood movies ever use real white folk.

Youre mistaken. By 1920, men and women were wearing western attire and took white collar jobs. Also, the act of bosom covering was established, in some areas, as early as 1900 or even earlier.

They were not colonized before around 1896, so all that you said would still be a result of colonization.

Are you ashamed of females with naked bosoms? Are they indecent to you?

That is clearly not a white man. He is mixed race. I am sure he has one Igbo parent. When will Nollywood stop this rubbish of casting Mixed race people as whites! its ridiculous.
