Nollywood: How The Nigerian Movie Industry Aided In Promoting Sense Of Entitleme by Azeemokoya: 7:24am On Mar 06, 2022
There are ongoing arguments on social media about the role of Nollywood in promoting promiscuity in the country.

In recent months, the Nigerian economy has nosedived amongst other nefarious incidents; fuel scarcity, poor power supply, underemployment, the list is endless. While the embattled Nigerian populace is blaming the government; another sect of people are blaming the Nigerian entertainment industry for failing to enlighten the populace about the ideal lessons of life.

It is time we call out the Nigerian movie industry, Nollywood. We should hold them accountable for failing unravel real life lessons to their viewers.
Earlier in the week, the microblogging site, Twitter was set ablaze after the video of Instagram influencer, Ada La Pinky real name Ada Ebere aired online.

During the session, Ada La Pinky was speaking about why women are entitled to a man’s funds after dates.

Speaking during the session, Ada La Pinky said paying a makeup artist to get her ready and also trying out different dresses, wearing an expensive wig, and then going to the venue.

The social media influencer said it’s only proper that the date gives her some money to appreciate her efforts.

“I always expect, ‘oh, it was nice meeting you o, just take’,” Ada La Pinky said.

The host then asked if this means that women now go on dates just to make money and the other lady responded that being fine requires money.

“No, it’s not about making money. Do you know the cost of being a fine girl in Lagos? It’s expensive,” the lady said.

A time to call out the movie industry for promoting ‘gimme gimme’ mentality
Nigerian movies should desist from interpreting love as going shopping and buying houses for the mother of a girl who an actor initiates his interest in a lady a scene prior.


The extrapolating storylines of a village girl from a poor background meeting a wealthy man from Lagos State and Abuja has become stale, boring and nonsensical.

There is an unwritten law in Nollywood that states should you meet a babe in scene 1; by scene 2 you are taking her shopping and showing her you’re the ‘real man’.

It is time for these storylines to take a break.


This ideology should be defenestrated with immediate effect.


These storylines have done more harm than good; as a matter of fact, these storylines are gauntlet to the Nigerian society.

First, we read stories about men who have taken their lives due to heartbreak after investing heavily in women whom they perceive as potential life partners.


We have seen men get double-crossed by bringing up children who are not their own.


Also, we have read about women killing sugar daddies or their sponsors out of greed. Despite buying them the world; sponsoring their Dubai trips; gifting them new vehicles and whatnot.

Let us start by re-educating our male children and unplugging them from the delusional ideology bagged and sold to us by the soceity.

It will be very difficult to avert these delusions. Musicians are always releasing songs that profess undying love and how they could die for the female lovers, there's movie industry, influencers, and others.

The movie industry is specialized in mind control. To destroy a country without weapons, enter their movie industry and reengineer the peoples mind.
