WHAT A WASTE

.

wonderful

Imagine

Please this has seriously caused trouble and fighting. Can someone please interpret this in Yoruba language: "JIDE'S FATHER PAID OLU'S MONEY"

That includes my own money inside. Chai

Isoright

Mumu them
Carry my money enter cinema
When he be say I fit download am one time once it is out for download

Na so my babe dey yarn say make we enter cinema
Na im i shout for her whether she dey craze
I be like who dey do all those mumu mumu things
Money when i go use confirm some parcel of weed make me and my guys smoke then drink some bottles


Na so i tell her make she wait if the thing come out for download then i download am make she watch
She begin vex and carry face

But i nor send

Women make men go to the movies. The average man will spend that money at the bar

I have never spent a dime on cinema

That useless Yoruba Demons. ... scam

Wow...

These are very meagre earnings. Less than $3m for a whole country that calls itself the giant of Africa. We have a really really long way to go.

There money and so what

That is very low compared with what is achievable

Too poor...The movie below grossed over a billion dollars by 1st quarter upon release as published by New York Times..

XNXX.." Alexis Texas and Sarah Jay share beefy Black c0ck in a creampy 0rgy"..

Produced by Miami Based " Bangbros movie inc." In collaboration with "Blazzers Group"..

Who calculated everything? They’ve started throwing numbers again. I personally spent two billion during the period, why is it not reported there?

[UPDATE]
I see now it says ‘cinema’. That is good news. I know the numbers spent here will pale in comparison to American markets. That’s where big spending is made on/for Hollywood flicks.

money the this country shaa¿

I think it should read Nigerians in Lagos and Abuja ..As most states in Nigeria don't have cinemas. Lagos and Abuja with easily cater for 80 percent of that figure released

About 2 dollars or less per person in a whole 7 days.

Not good at all, not even mediocre; Let us be serious for once about electricity, infrastructure, and governing business laws; then that can rise to 50 dollars a day.
