Igbo films too dull...








It's not their calling...








How many of their actresses are millionaires without politicians as their big gods?






I love Yoruba movies. Full of suspense, intrigues, wisdoms, knowledge, actions packed, romantic and educating.

My enemies have suceeded. ( when problems become overwhelming)

Not to mention they always using Step brother in place of Half brother.
