So now you want a stake in Nollywood? You no well!
Abeg, stick with your Yoriwood, just as ndị Hausa are at peace with their Kannywood.

Maybe the Enugu thread can be your template because not even Calabar is discussed there. That page is too busy with Enugu/southeast project's.

IlekeHD:


LMAO projects or fights

ezeagu:
Yoruba guys making money promoting Igbo soft power? Cool, who minds?

ezeagu:


Which fight? Or are you talking about Abagworo and Chino? Two political bloggers? No one has insecurities about far flung places on those threads anyway.

IlekeHD:


Which igbo soft power? lmaoooo

ezeagu:


Those films aren't typical Nollywood films. Obviously. The Nollywood of legend are the ones that churn out films in a week.

IlekeHD:


I'm talking about the disunity on your threads

There's no disunity on the Enugu thread, very opposite actually, check for yourself. And there was no name calling of other regions/peoples needed either to bolster the visibility/page count of the thread (I see).

Aye omo y1bo ti baje, wallahi.

So, all those producers of 10 films in 5 minutes are the ones y1bos are calling legends.

Well we are used to it, you always have an opposing meaning for words in alaigbo --- the coward ojukwu was described as brave, the stupidity of fighting fighter jets and T72 tanks with cassava sticks was termed as bravery, treasonable felony is being seen as freedom of speech.

S,o if you call those categories of producers legends, i will definitely not be suprised, you are simply keeping up with your genetic traits.

You made nadal popular. The only thing you made popular in Nigeria is drug trafficking and every form of other crimes.

I repeat, Nollywood comprises all the films being produced in Nigeria whether Yoriwood or Kannywood or Biafraudwood. If you want an exclusive film industry, chill till your fraud of a nation becomes a reality.

How can youw own Nollywood, when the majority of the top 20 grossing movies are from SW

Y1bos can lie....jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

IlekeHD:


No disunity?

Even igbos can't agree on Biafra

IlekeHD:


You really want to compare cultural institution and western yoruba vs igbo names?

Ngga serve. The list of Yoruba wanna-bes and Yoruba cultural center all over the world is too long to provide

Black Americans/Afro Caribbeans by African family names? Wanna try place names? Wanna try historical figures? I can if you want. Mind you, all I talked about was Igbo soft power, not sizing up to anybody, well, initially.

IlekeHD:


No they're not. They're better than the garbage igbo producers spit out : Quantity over Quality

But they're still classified as Nollywood

superstar1:



Majority of their ladies are not proud of their igbos names -- igbochume, shidinma. shindodo, shinyere etc


Most of them are always changing their names once they enter Ekenedilichukwu bus that is SW bound -- Cassandra, Maureen, Isabella, Benita etc.

Bunch of clowns.

IlekeHD:


List them abeg

Try all the places you like

ezeagu:


The top Five movies are about Igbo/Biafra issue...

IlekeHD:


lmaoooo ...... that's their prostitution names

nwanlecha:
But even your Yoriwood actors recognize that your industry is different from Nollywood now. You don't seem to be proud of your Yoriwood, why?
By the way, I don't appreciate the way you bastardize the name of my tribe, calling us 'yiibo.' That's not nice.

Yoruba movie producers gaining money out of civil war?

But wait o! I thought DSTV announced that there will be AFricaMagic Igbo by april this year.

Where is it?

ezeagu:
Spreading Igbo Softpower you mean.

Are you a learner? Of course, the Yorubas have Yoriwood, the Hausas, have Kannywood, while we Ndị Igbo own Nollywood. There's no argument there.

"The Nigerian film industry is undoubtedly helping create jobs in a country with an economy that relies mainly on oil and agriculture. Over a million people are currently employed in the industry, making it the country’s largest employer after agriculture. Although Nigeria’s economy will grow by 7% this year, according to the African Development Bank, insufficient jobs for a growing youth population continue to be a huge concern. - See more at: http://www.un.org/africarenewal/magazine/may-2013/nigeria%E2%80%99s-film-industry-potential-gold-mine#sthash.5FYNfUOS.dpuf"
