HeyCorleone:
Nigga has a point.

Our actors are overrated abeg. Our movies are poor. even the so called wedding party is lacking in content, story and creativity. Nollywood is a serious mess.

Go make your own bro

Truckpusher:
Most of you don't read to understand and it amazes me how you turn around to accuse people of doing exactly what you're doing. It could have been any other gay guy but not just Alimi. U dun hear am nau ?

Oh it's now any other gay guy, hmmm progressive

Anyway if Bisi tells you to run away from danger, you won't because it's him abi

Wat next? Any other bisi just not alimi abi?

tomtos88:


Yea, he is Nigeria, bt is he from Nollywood? That's wat he meant

He didn't say nollywood, he said Nigeria!

No Nigeria Actor/Actress Is Good Enough To Feature In The Movie "Black Panther" - Gay Activist, Bisi Alimi

The Nigeria HIV positive LGBT activist, Ashiwaju Bisi Alimi have blasted Nigerian actors and actresses as well as Nigerians citizens for saying why won't there be a Nigeria actor in the latest movie "Black Panther" which clearly speaks about Africans.

Bisi Alimi said and I quote "The idea that their should have been a Nigerians actor in Black Panther is ludicrous. I am going to say this, as a matter of fact, there is no actor (male or female) in Nigeria that can act at such quality.

Black Panther was not about "screaming and shouting", it was about "acting" and those are not the same thing. And don't get me started at Nnaji (Genevieve Nnaji), she cannot act.

The screen of my phone is bad so I couldn't see what OP posted but from what people are commenting, I think his teacher shouldn't have beat him like that. There are ways of punishing a student instead of beating him and inflicting injury upon the poor boy. The parents should take the teacher to court. That's my contribution.
Thank you.

lala will ban you for derailing ooi

EsotericMonk:
Its really amazing, the response that has greeted his statement. Everyone is attacking the messenger and leaving out the message, why? Cos he hit it at the right spot.
This is where you know the mediocres among us, the ardent nollywood supporters. They're the same ppl going bananas over the drab BBN.
I once called a relationship quit cos the babe was addicted to nollywoood. I simply cant roll with such a babe, her IQ would be leagues below mine resulting in a mismatched relationship. No way!

ordinarily I wanted to just read comments and amuse myself hence the reason I found your post. I have always had one argument which is that nollywood reduces peoples IQ. You were right to drop the babe.

Just because he's gay, see how everyone is attacking the guy and calling him names. Yet if another person says the exact same thing, we will all nod in agreement.
Abi aren't we the ones that anyways criticize Naija movies?
So because he's gay, it makes his point invalid?

He knows Africans including Nigerians are homophobic, but he chose to rile them up by saying crap about their actors/actresses.
He needed attention, that's exactly what he got.

Guys check out this short action film

The truth is bitter.... The guy is right... Tell me is it with pot bellies that Nigerian actors want to fight killmonger with? ....they are not agile... Only to walk around with cardboard crowns and shout igwe...

But isn't there elements for truth to what he said? Even we ourselves criticize our movies. Most of us don't even watch them at all

The 14 years jail punishment is not working on these homosexuals. Until the federal government enacts laws that guarantees the killing of gays and lesbians in our society, people with abominable sexualities like these won't stop insulting our sensibilities. This is why i love Islam. People like Alimi will have become headless chickens long time ago

Leave judgement to God. The Bible says that God will punish all fornicators in hell (Heb 13:4),now you see,you might not be gay,it doesn't matter,if you have ever had sex outside marriage, you are doomed to burn forever.
If you say God forgives,then it applies to all sins then, including homosexuality.
You can keep your hatred for any sin,but don't judge the sinner,that's my point.

konvict007:
the question here is who is bisi alimi?

Still seriously searching where he made sense

Probably where you left your own sense

By international standards they are not even C-rated actors

My guy Bisi made sense. Hollywood actors take time to fit into a character. Some go on dieting, body building and trimming for a long time just to suit that particular character, while Nollywood actors just depict a character for just 45 minutes and call it acting. There's a big difference

The Nigeria HIV positive LGBT activist

See introduction , some journalists though lmao!

neoapocalypse:

Why? Is it their acting technique?

They are good actors, just happen to be in Nigeria where the Industry is still growing.

I watch foreign movies too and they have actors that are not too good, some even earned a lot at their peak, they were fortunate to be in Hollywood.

cococandy:


Yea you are. I know the pattern.

“I am not gay but I don’t want to hear a gay person’s opinion on any subject or else I’m gonna leave the topic and attack their lifestyle”

“I am not racist but I am going to make any black person’s offense about their race instead of their own personality”

“I am not misogynist but when a woman says or does something, I am going to blame her gender for it”

That's how they always start, you know immediately they put a "but" there, the sentence preceding the "but" is trash.

Bisi normally has valid points but not on this one sorry.

What is he talking about exactly?

What was the budget of black Panther? What of costume. How much is the most expensive Nollywood movie? Abeggi

I disagree strongly, we have actors and actresses who can play any role and are willing to commit to the process if given the opportunity.

How many Nollywood actors does he know? You cannot throw away the baby with the bathwater.

So Keanu Reeves is a great actor abi?or Clive Owen?

Mtscheww.

ivanalimi:
the wedding party is lacking in content ,story and creativity ?? av u even watched it sef? and it was a success commercially all over africa and europe and one of the highest grossing film from Nigeria?? u are pathetically ignorant.

Commercially in which Europe. You’re the ignorant one.

Most mediocre Nigerians with canon fodder for brains, are the reason why nollywood is still backwards.

They will only act what will sell, and as majority of you can’t tell the difference between a good movie and rubbish, they will keep churning rubbish.

Bisi did not lie. Take the message and leave the messenger.

You people are just too fucking emotional about everything.

So painful that I have to share a country with the like of you, who are the majority.

Pete Edochie would have played Zuri perfectly.

He is talking rubbish , most of the Black Panther actors , have not even been to Africa before , the movie was not made for AFRICANS to be honest , it lacked REALITY

Nollywood The only industry that produce movie of Part 1, 2, 3 and even part 4 in a month

the whole plot does not represent reality na, it is fiction. it is a movie adaptation of a comic. it's just like you complaining spiderman/batman is not reality.

I agree with your opinion on the fact that it wasn't meant for Africans in Africa Sha.

and he is not talking rubbish nollywood is trash
