TV/Movies / Meet Miracle Nduka A Nairaland Director Who Took Nollywood By Storm by Dyoungstar: 11:49pm On Mar 05, 2022 |
Acting was the pathway to finding my calling as a film director ---Miracle Nduka Popular film maker, Miracle Nduka who made his directorial debut with the 2014 movie, "Walk to Redemption" has described his journey into Nollywood as adventurous, fulfilling and one that is devoid of bad memories Nduka started out as an actor before he later veered into directing films after realizing his strength lies in the craft. Known for blockbuster movies like “Dinta (Hunter),” “Change”, "The Painter", “Christabel,” “3 Idiots”, “The contract” and “Lost in Love”, Nduka is not just a successful director and producer, but also, a cinematographer and editor par excellence. The film director said his dream while growing up was to stand in front of the camera, but with the passage of time, he realized he has a stronger passion for directing films. “I started from amateur script writing on nairaland literature section to acting. I imagined myself adorning the big screens, be in the forefront of things, but as time evolved, I began understanding myself better. I began to get in touch with my real self, then I understood that there's this passion in me that wants to see a project come to life, a part of me that wants to see that a script is transformed from mere words to reality, becoming something that people can relate with.” “I actually flipped from acting to directing when I took up the role of directing my first film "Walk to Redemption" which was shot in Kaduna in 2014. That film was an eye opener for me, it was really challenging. Following the result of that project, I got to understand that acting was not really where my passion lies but a pathway to finding my calling. Acting became a hobby which gave me excitement but deep down I wanted more,” Nduka narrated. Asked if he's fulfilled working behind the camera, Nduka responded in the affirmative, adding “Every stage in life comes with its challenges, particularly being a film director in this space called Nigeria.” Continuing, he added: “My experience working behind the camera is actually the fun of being able to commit my creative ideas into technical abilities and see that those technical abilities are put in play in such a way that I am able to bring a story to life.” Nduka said he started his career from directing stage plays in churches and theatres back then in Niger State, then moved to Kaduna and later Abuja, where the drama group which he then founded was usually invited to perform at church programmes. He later delved into directing films, leading the production of his first feature film in 2014. Since then Nduka has not looked back in his quest to stand out in his profession. He is currently working on series of interesting films slated to be released this year. Nduka is best known for directing "Change", a jungle justice/social justice short film that went viral globally in 2017. He also produced and directed 'Dinta (Hunter)', a 2019 short film which featured on Amazon Prime video. The film was nominated in the Short Film category at the 10th edition of the Africa International Film Festival (AFRIFF) and made it through to the quarter finals. Nduka has also displayed his directorial expertise in the music industry where he has shot series of international standard music videos which has shown on TVs across Africa and the globe at large. Founder and creative director of YET Films Productions, Nduka is also a team member of Krystal Filmworks, a film production company based in Lagos, where he was part of some hit productions like "Dark Spotlight", "Joca", "A place called forward" among others. He has worked with some Nollywood top actors and filmmakers. Some of his projects are on Iroko TV, Africa Magic, Amazon Prime Video and others coming on Netflix this year. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/03/my-nollywood-journey-is-devoid-of-bad-memories-miracle-nduka/amp/ https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sunnewsonline.com/miracle-nduka-raises-the-bar-in-film-production/%3famp Watch his short film HUNTER (DINTA) which was written by a nairalander on movies section here https://app.primevideo.com/detail?gti=amzn1.dv.gti.2b4f0412-8559-491c-971f-16db5d5fe8a0&ref_=atv_dp_share_mv&r=web Link to the story here https://www.nairaland.com/1331756/short-film-script-eye-eye See some of his music videos here 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDQbBPtMWes 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvKC6h6AH0k 3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVA3vDKTPWA

Politics / Re: Identities Of Abducted 300 Civilians Of Eastern Nigeria By Security Forces by Dyoungstar: 6:27pm On Jul 15, 2021 |
Following indiscriminate false labeling, hateful policing and soldiering and lack of modern policing skills, civilian citizens in Eastern Nigeria, in their thousands, have been indiscriminately false-labeled and subjected to ‘prosecutorial vindictiveness’. In other words, they are frivolously suspected and falsely labeled; indiscriminately and wickedly arrested and thrown into detention after being slammed with phantom accusations bordering on offenses attracting capital punishments or several years’ imprisonments. To actualize their quest for ‘prosecutorial vindictiveness’, arrested and detained civilian citizens are arraigned in inferior courts with intent to secure the nods of such ‘courts’ to dump them in indefinite detention. These they do recklessly even it is in black and white that such ‘courts’ lack jurisdiction to entertain the phantom felonious charges. The Nigeria Police, DSS and the Military also make reckless use of ‘remand orders’ without time limitations and use same to detain and keep civilian citizens in permanent detention. In many cases in Eastern Nigeria, the Nigerian Military and DSS abduct and detain civilian citizens in hundreds for several months without recourse to orders from courts of superior records such as State or Federal High Courts. Totality of the above is a clear and grave violation of the Access to Criminal Justice Act of 2015 and Sections 35 (right to personal liberty and its subsection 4: three months maximum detention timeframe in matters bordering on suspicion of capital offenses and right to conclusive investigation and indictment or discharge and acquittal), 36 (right to Court trial and its subsections 4 and 5: rights to fair hearing and presumption of innocence until judicially convicted) of the 1999 Constitution. Further provided clearly and unambiguously in the Laws of Nigeria are the fact that civilian citizens arrested and taken into detention must be accorded their rights to be investigated and tried, if indicted, in Court, but in practice in present Eastern Nigeria, these have been observed in gross breach by the country’s security forces to the extent that arrested civilian citizens are being kept in detention for several months, if not years without trial or ‘arraigned’ in inferior courts and dumped to rot in detention or ‘awaiting trials’ 112 Abducted Obigbo Residents: 1.Benjamin Eze, 2.

They were slammed with phantom charges of “treason”, “treasonable felony”, “arson” and so on. Their “arraignment and remand” was very controversial and generated uproars and outcries which forced the Catholic Archbishop of Owerri Ecclesiastical Province, His Lordship, Archbishop Anthony Obinna, to visit them at Owerri Prisons on 26th May 2021.

He was wangled out by his family and transferred to Police from where he was dumped in Aba Prisons. Victims’ numbers 66-83 represent the names of 18 more abducted civilian citizens presently held at the Awka State CID in Anambra State. Calls: The International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law is hereby calling for unconditional release of all the Eastern Christian citizens named above as well as the remaining 2,700 others wherever they are being held across the country. To the extent that they have been held far beyond the constitutionally limited timeframes of lawful detention clearly set out in Section 35 (4) of the 1999 Constitution, irrespective of the offense gravity, their continuing detention in the Nigerian Government secret and open detention facilities is totally unknown to the Constitution and other laws of the country including the acceded treaty laws. The Nigerian Army is inexcusably called upon to immediately and unconditionally free the 108 surviving innocent and defenseless Obigbo residents abducted and secretly held since Oct/November 2020 at the Army’s Alpha Military Commando Base in Bida, Niger State where four of the 112 died recently possibly from custodial torture or shooting or starvation or lack of proper medical attentions. The authorities of the Nigerian Army must also account for their dead bodies and is forbidden from “transferring” or “handing over” the remaining 108 to Police or DSS so as to escape culpability. The abductees having been secretly held for almost nine months without trial are no longer ‘triable’ in any Court in Nigeria and must therefore be released unconditionally, properly catered for apologized to and adequately compensated.

Politics / Identities Of Abducted 300 Civilians Of Eastern Nigeria By Security Forces by Dyoungstar: 6:27pm On Jul 15, 2021 |
SPECIAL REPORT: Identities of abducted 300 civilians of Eastern Nigeria by security forces – four out of 112 abducted in Obigbo dies – says Intersociety The combined forces of Nigerian Army and Nigeria Police Force, joined by DSS, Naval and Air Force personnel have in the past eight months – November 2020 to June 2021, abducted and detained no fewer than 3000 unarmed and defenseless civilians (all Christians) in Eastern Nigerian States of Abia, Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Cross River, Delta, Ebonyi, Enugu, Imo and Rivers. The abductees include 112 mostly Igbo civilian citizens residing in Obigbo, Rivers State, abducted and secretly disappeared by the Nigerian Army since October/November 2020 and later found to be held in Niger State. ‘Abduction’ is technically used in the instant case because their families and lawyers have till date been denied knowledge of their whereabouts and blocked from visiting and seeing them in custody or having them charged to court and given fair trial and fair hearing. The 112 mostly Igbo civilian citizens of Obigbo residency have for almost nine months remained in the Nigerian Army’s Alpha Military Commando Base located along Bida-Suleja Road, Bida in Niger State in Northeast Nigeria. They have also been held secretly without administrative or court bail. The most shocking part of it is that four of them (Ekwueme Thomas, Pius Onochie, Obinna Akapuru and Monday Ifeanyi) have died in custody and whereabouts of their bodies are not known to the public or their families. The remaining 108 still secretly being held are part of no fewer than 550 civilians abducted by soldiers and secretly bundled to Niger State and other parts of the North between October and November 2020. Their abduction followed the Army’s invasion of Obigbo in October 2020 during which not less than 110 defenseless civilians were massacred, hundreds injured, dozens of young women raped severely and severally and civilian properties worth hundreds of millions of naira set ablaze or destroyed by the rampaging soldiers. Following the discovery of some secret locations where the abductees were taken to and held, in addition to public and media outcries and efforts of Barr Richard Okoroafor, Intersociety and leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra and others, 283 were judicially rescued and over 270 have remained in secret custody of the Nigerian Army and among them are the 112 abductees who were discovered in February 2021 in Niger State and another 26 secretly transferred by soldiers to DSS detention facilities in Abuja. It must also be remembered that it was in the course of locating the whereabouts of the 112 Obigbo civilian abductees that Barr Richard Okoroafor, an International Human Rights Lawyer, narrowly escaped being assassinated on 25th February 2021 by killer operatives suspected to be working for the Government of Nigeria along the Suleja-Abuja Highway. The Lawyer’s mother was also on 19th May 2021 assassinated by suspected Government hired gunmen at the entrance of her residence in Ekiti State, Southwest Nigeria. Similar conduct atrocities by the Army, Police and others have been extended to the named nine Eastern States since January 2021. This followed targeted killing of some security personnel and destruction of Government facilities by “Unknown Gunmen” which the Nigerian Government accused the Eastern Security Network, a forest based anti Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen’s terror Vigilante Group, belonging to the Indigenous People of Biafra of being responsible; an accusation the group strongly denied. Intersociety had apart from investigating the Obigbo Army massacre, also conducted investigations into the atrocities by the Nigerian Government joint security forces in Eastern Nigeria and found as at date that “the security forces led by the Army and the Police had between January and June 2021 killed at least 370 mostly innocent and defenseless citizens or 480 of them if counted from Oct/November 2020, injured hundreds, abducted and detained no fewer than 3000, disappeared 762 (presumed killed in secret military, police and DSS custodies) and burnt or destroyed civilian properties worth hundreds of millions of naira”. Among the 3000 abducted and incarcerated civilians of Eastern Christian Nigerian citizens are over 300, located recently in Benue State where they were secretly transported by Army and Police and held in different secret and open detention facilities. The Intersociety findings above are contained in the reports of 31st May (updated on 14th June) and 17th June 2021. On 20th June 2021, we released an investigative statement identifying names of the senior Army officers in Eastern Nigeria involved in the ongoing killings, maiming, abductions and disappearances. Missing in the list of the perpetrators is Col Abubakar Abdullahi, Deputy Army Public Relations Officer of the 82 Division, Enugu. On 29th June 2021, another investigative statement was released exposing the involvement of the Nigeria Police’s Force Intelligence Bureau led by DIG Tijani Baba in the attempted assassination of the IPOB Lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor which took place on 6th June 2021. It must also be noted that in the killings, abductions and disappearances above highlighted, Imo and Abia States are the worst hit, accounting for many of the state actors’ conduct atrocities. Till date, none of the perpetrators has been fished out by Nigerian Government or Court and held accountable. See www.intersociety-ng.org for more details. Constitutional safeguards grossly in breach Rules of Engagement and constitutional safeguards have been breached with reckless abandon by the Nigerian security forces in Eastern Nigeria. Our several investigative findings specifically showed that soldiers of the Nigerian Army and other branches of the Armed Forces are the worst violators when it comes to abduction of civilian citizens and their incarceration or disappearance in custody. Despite the fact that the laws of Nigeria and several judicial pronouncements have ostracized the Military from constant arrest of civilians and their indefinite detention without trial and torturing and killing them in custody; the Nigerian Military has arrogantly remained above the law. This is to the extent that details regarding civilians abducted by them and access to them by their families and lawyers while in military custodies are hardly made public or communicated to their families and lawyers. Despite the fact that the Military lacks power and skills to detain, investigate and prosecute civilian citizens especially those abducted in peacetime security operations, they have resorted to holding their abductees indefinitely in their secret custodies leading to indiscriminate torture, sexual abuses and death of many in custody. The Obigbo Army massacre, abductions and sexual violence are a clear case in point. It is also our investigative finding that right to personal liberty including right to administrative or Court bail and its principles of fairness in the arrest, detention, investigation and prosecution or discharge and acquittal of civilian citizens under suspicion of offending the law as contained in the Chapter Four of the 1999 Constitution, the Access to Criminal Justice Act of 2015 and the country’s acceded rights treaty laws have been observed in gross breach by the Nigeria Police Force, Army and other security agencies in Eastern Nigeria. |

Hello @all I am new to this aliexpress thing, I want to order for some clothes and accessories but reviews and comments are scaring me. Is there no way a company delivers these items? Like I buy everything I want and they are all sent to the company in China and the company collates items that belong to me and package them as one single item and ship them down to me in good time, not this 2 weeks to 6 months I am seeing here. |
