Ok bro check this thinking out of the Box, how will it make you or him feel when his own Yoruba brothers are the same ones buying these copies,even his next door neighbors, what does that make them?this is why he should have refrained from tribe calling, its all people not just one tribe,the igbo in this context.

Yeah u are right.. he shouldn't have mentioned tribe, since no tribe is immune to such practices. We have yoruba ppl also involved in this business.

That's why I hate tribalistic and religious comments. It's what has been dividing this nation since independence.

What exactly is your question?

Is a tribalist? Is a man who has unfailingly used as much SS and SE cast as SW cast a tribalist?

What about your own experiences since you are in the same business with him

What I see from that post is may God punish you 'ALL' (Pirates) and not all Igbos but if Kunle actually referred to the IGBOs then may God punish him, ALL Yorubas and YORUBA pirates especially the ones I see under Oshodi bridge.
Lets mind how we address issues!

There's no ending to the rivalry between yorubas and Igbos.Funny enough,Igbos still prefer yorubas to the Hausas and the Hausas prefer yorubas to the Igbos. The question is, which ethnic group does the yorubas prefer? Bigotry divides us and shouldn't be tolerated. Just like any movie producer, Kunle invest heavily in movie production and his pained seeing his hard-earned job being sold like agege-bread.This matter needs urgent attention.
which hausa prefer yoruba?is it d ones that fight on my street everyday.come 2 d east n see hausas speak igbo fluently.av neva heard any hausa speak yoruba on d average.its just tolerance,no preference

Na wa oh!! I thought all tribes are guilty of this? As much as I do not support piracy but has he called his brothers to order who translate most foreign movies into their native language without approval from the original producers of the movies? What about others that download pirated movies from the internet, are they also Igbos? Piracy is a worldwide thing and people are still looking for ways to curb it so why single out an ethnic group in Nigeria only?
Re: Kunle Afolayan Blasts Igbos - Blames Them For Piracy. (screengrabs Included). by philfrey08: 11:24pm On Apr 06, 2015
Nigeria is entering a very deep pit now if we are not all careful with our utterances. Hatred is booming, chaos, discrimination, tribalism is the cause.
Afolayan... I have questions.
1. When did the piracy start? Was it after the elections?
2. Why are u just tweeting about it
3. What have you done with the film body to curb this menace.

I ask because I am igbo and have read and heard hate comments which exhumed after the Presidential elections because igbos voted Jonathan. Everyone is now bringing the hate out. Its unfair.

I hate when u work and others reap where u sow. I understand Afolayan but his message and feeling is not misunderstood.

Piracy is a big problem for the Nigerian movie industry and we all agree. However Kunle Afolayan, a celebrated film maker has gone on his social media page to vent his frustration as per movie piracy associating it with the Igbos.

As a role model and a well respected filmmaker I found his tweets quite disconcerting. Was it wise to go about piracy in this manner? Blaming the Igbos? Does it mean that Igbos do not pay to watch his movies in cinema? Does that not depict shallow mindedness and bigotry?


Here are his disturbing tweets and some replies. What do you think? Are there better ways to tackle this issue? Did he cross the line?



Kunle Afolayan, if you actually tweeted that then I want to tell you that AMADIOHA will strike you and your people.Idiot! As much as I detest piracy but your rants and insults are not the best ways to tackle piracy.Why dont you as well tweet that God 's wrath will strike chinese people or are you afraid of them.Honestly, you have just shown the animalistic nature in you.I dont blame you, yorubas are saints right.kunle afolayan if you like cry from here to australia, you remain a fool and I am proud to say #IAMIGBO.
You will be the first to jump into that lagoon your oba said we would be thrown into.I dont blame you,I blame my brothers who have overdeveloped your land yet you insult and destroy their properties unecessary. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH AND ANY YORUBA THAT INSULTS ME HERE , I RETURN YOUR INSULTS BACK TO YOU AND YOUR FOLKS AND I WISH YOU SAME OF WHATEVER YOU PLAN TO WISH ME. AHHHHHH, NORTH-IGBO, WEST-IGBO, SOUTH-IGBO.HAPUNU ANYI AKAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Kunle afolayan's complain is understandable and justified. Without any form of sentiments, we all know that the igbo boys of alaba are the ones who pirate movies,not just in lagos but all over Nigeria, I guess this is the negetive side of the igbo man's business prowess. Now this is not to say that the igbo tribe as a whole is responsible for this attrocity, its just that those who we all know who pirate movies are igbos. There are myriad igbo men and women who Are contributing immensely to Nigerias growth. Its always an error for anyone to judge a tribe by the actions of a few, its neva common to all

So d yoruba speaking Chineese movies in circulation are also products of igbo piracy abi? If so, I respect their ingenuity! **Last bullet** He who has not sinned should cast d first stone, while thunder continues to strike the Pirates, Afolayan should also invoke blindness on those who must have watched pirated movies and see if he won't be a blindman!
