Politics Of Nollywood: Igbo Marginalising Yoruba? by FSU: 4:14pm On Oct 10, 2007
For the first time in their lives, Igbo people are said to be marginalising the Yoruba. This was made known at the maiden edition of an event held last year where there was an attempt to unite English/Igbo home video actors (Nollywood) and the indigenous, especially Yoruba movie practitioners (Yoruwood), who had always complained of discrimination in the industry by the English/Igbo practitioners. The event was coordinated by Ambassador Segun Olusola and Dele Momodu, publisher of Ovation magazine.

Well, they both seem to make it by just fine
If the Yorubas want to stick to Yoruba films and Igbos to Nollywood, whatever floats their boats. As long as everybody gets paid, who gives a f**k
