Lemme quickly say this,im not igbo neither im i related to them cos dem still dey find Biafra but the truth is that they have done a lot to improve the movie industry..

The funding,zeal,creativity and the market in general screams "igbo" so i dont see why those nominations are mostly Yoruba..

Or are you telling me that igbo people dont do good movies?? For crying out loud,those guys revolutinalized the industry and made it what it is today..They all started in the east,Asaba to be specific..

Let me not cry more than the bereaved sha..

SEONaijaExpert:
The Afolayan's family is just so talented.

I'm happy for Hakeem Effect, dude needs that spotlights.

I thought Odunlade would win something, he featured more in almost all the languages this year. I guess he needs to start checking the script he accepts.

Omotola winning best actress in a TV/drama series? I didn't see that coming, maybe personality counts here. Alter ego was a nice movie though.

Isoken was epic, great movie!

Asaba is not in the East!

Many of the movies that won awards are cinema movies, not low-budget flicks sponsored by Alaba Market goons.

Drchristian:

You blame Yoruba for your loss wow it shows how inferior you people are.

Let the Igbo nominated actors and actresses complain now. Do you really think Igbo best Yoruba in anything? Think about it is Capital No.

The little things you won came as a result of support from the South South.

PVision2020:

Cry cry babies. I guess out of all the tribes in Africa, the organizers has chosen to marginalized only the Jews of Africa. They should have "dash" them all the awards to stop our cry cry babies from wailing. lol
I guess the head of the organisers "Wangi Mba-Uzoukwu" (West Africa regional director of MNET) is also marginalizing is kinsmen.
Crass inferiority complex

It was so obvious that the award was compromised, Igbos made nollywood.
You asked if Igbos can beat you Yoruba in anything Yes of course, neutral competition Yorubas are no match to Igbos, for 17 years now Igbos has been beating you in education, entrepreneurship your people are no match to Igbos, the organizers are dumb to cover their tribalism nature, it was so obvious, starting from musicians that performed to the awards .

You asked Igbos best Yoruba in anything Below is picture of one out of many

Ofemannnu:


Anything shrouded in criminality like Miracle Centre infested WAEC is what you can beat Yoruba in but when it comes to a fair playing ground which does not allow Igbos to cheat,they are always mostly below Yorubas.



Apart from your 1 award from technovation,Yorubas have been proven to be the best in technology,education and business not 2×2 shop trading which Igbos dominate all over.

These are the Forbes business,technology and creative best 30 in Africa 2018 list.

Since Govt. started meddling in Igbo owned nollywood, they have tried so hard to sideline Igbo out of their own sweat. But we know that's Nigeria for you. Politicizing everything. Imagine boring Yoruba names up there.

Asaba is not in the East. It is in the South-South Region. Cartographically, it is in Western Nigerian, rather than Eastern Nigeria.

Half of a Yellow Sun was not produced, funded or directed by Igbos. It is based a novel written by an Igbo but as a movie, it has a life of its own.

Before you misunderstand the point I made initially, let me clarify what I meant when I said AMVCA nominated cinema films, not low budget flicks made by Alaba Market goons. The point here is that many of the movies produced and directed by Igbos are directed to home viewership and made for immediate profit/business and they are, therefore, of low quality if you compare them with cinema films which are of high quality. There are many Igbos also making cinema movies but we can agree that this section is dominated mainly by Yorubas.

P.S: I am neither Yoruba nor Igbo so don't think I am being ethnocentric here.
