They should never have used the EYO masquerade in dt movie. First thing I said when I saw EYO with guns killing people.
Disgusting!

You don't know the history of Lagos be that. Long before now, my dad used to tell of how the Eyo masquerade festival used to be used for political assassinations back in the 1980s and 90s If anything, this movie confirms what Dad has been telling me all these years.

Raskimonojendor:

There was an "Omo ibo" character in the movie. He was hacked to death though.

Awon werey!!
Na Yoruba act the movie.
Go hug transformer.

theultimatep3:


I don't know what you mean by "gbam." But I'll tell you the truth: you cannot as for freedom of speech and censorship with the same tongue.

It's one or the other.

No long talk.
Even freedom of speech has limit.

No mind am, make we no talk about the almighty ricca street, freeman, agarawu, Epetedo, cowlane, odunfa, okepopo...

Lagosians are not Gangsters-Says Eyo custodian,Shodipe-Dosunmu. From Adeniji, Ita Alagba, Pelewura, Iga Idugaran, Jankara, Apasile, Agarawu. Let not just say anything.

nnepodatti:
Any film that tells the story of how Tinubu uses thuggery to keep Lagos down, LASG will always go after such movie. remember they attacked shanty town ?

The same way he clamped down on local media on any negative publications against him or his administration while he was governor.

I saw what you did

Brendaniel:


I never believed that some Yorubas will go that far to start attacking Igbos based on propaganda and still come out to justify the attacks and are still threatening further attacks in the future, then they are only raising a phobia and a stereotype that might hang on the Yorubas for a very long time....

This post is about a Yoruba film. It has absolutely nothing to do with you or your tribe. It's very simple nau

The same way the Lagos state election was about Yoruba contesters but Igbo people suffered for having choice in the 2 contesters....

How I fit see this movie watch abeg!

[You talks like a child.. author=Beremx post=122483110] I remember back in the late 80s and early 90s when as a kid in Festac Town, Eyo Festival was done and it was a sight to behold. The festival for almost three decades have stopped at festac. I think it only holds at Lagos Island. Such a beautiful rare event.

If the film portrays Eyo Festival as bad, then the movie should be banned. That's a sacrilege to a culture people practice.[/quote]

I believe one needs a head to reason sha

Why do they call it mockery when their (and nation's new) oga at the top is a chief thug, drug baron and an agbero?!

This film just disappointed me. It is so sad. All these young woke boys and girls could have done is get a feedback for review before releasing it. If you are tellling our story via film; we have a right to see it before you show the world.

All the offensive parts must be removed and the real names used replaced.

Are the offensive parts in the film true or not? Should those offensive parts be removed because you don't like the fact that it speaks d truth?

Somebody should produced a movie based on this 2023 election

dalass:

Please can you explain further?

Watching dragon masquerade kill people in Chinese/Hollywood movies is entertainment, watching Eyo masquerade kill people in Nollywood is cultural misrepresentation.

You hypocrisy stinks to the highest heights.

The producers carefully tell the history of the Eyo masquerade, it's aim and on what occasion it can be sighted.

The movie only show that it was hijacked by unscrupulous element to perpetuate evil.

I don't see any case here

Vinnie2000:


It was EXACTLY this kind of comment that made one Evil-minded, Partisan Mod to ban me.

because really if it was an IgboMan that directed or Produced this movie,
some Tribalists would have spinned it that he is trying to Desecrate Lagos. 😒

We all know it is not an Igbo man, why are u pouring spit everywhere? The publication named the producers and directors for reprimanding, and rightly so. So Yoruba man can’t do wrong and be called out by yorubas? Wetin concern U? Why don’t u just mind ur business. Busybodies, shiorr.

It’s better than your terrorist infested region. Your people can’t survive without Lagos.

ODUBEZE:
Bastardized heritage

Heritage of corruption

You see what LASG is talking about? You omokomos have started desecrating our traditions because of a movie. I need to screenshot this comment.

Owo jona

Brendaniel:
But attacking Igbos on election day is not a mockery of your cultural heritage?

Like I said earlier I thank God the producer and director are Yorubas, if not they would have started another round of propaganda, hate and wickedness....

This attack pain you oh.

Start learning self defence against next election 😜😜😜

Now I'm going to definitely watch the movie!!

I think those criticizing the Eyo part lack comprehension. This people only used the eyo festival as camouflage as the eyo attire was perfect for hiding their identity. We have seen movies were armed robbers needed to dress as pastors to gain access to buildings

PulaPower:

If you try it in China or north Korea, nah death..

Those are not blacks..

Their own culture and tradition has brought development to them. What has our own done for us?

Oluwaseunomo:

Mr English man that trash you typed there belong in the dustbin just like you

Ogbeni, my comment is not for foolish people pls.

Did you really type the highlighted above?
After making a movie, the producers should conduct a peer review and use the feedback to determine if it's released or not?
Movies don't work that way...

I honestly don't see why LASG and the "we" are stressing. It's a fictional work. It's male believe. If the storyline touches a soft spot, then maybe a character change is required, and not a script review.

If you want your story told, commission a documentary. That's what documentaries are for. If you aren't part of the crew and producers, you don't have any right to see it before anything.

You all need to calm down and stop this you vs us rhetoric. It's destroying the world.

You also don't know what woke is, or how to even use it in a sentence.

No mind those f0ols them think say na to speak big grammer wey them nor even know the meaning.

nedu666:
Which one is ethnic profiling, is it not Yoruba man and actors that made the movie

justtoodark:


elections is over....let it rest....
this is about the image of the entire nation....

... what happened in election cannot be forgotten... and what happened at the Lagos State governorhip election the thugs illegal activities also represents the entire image of the entire nation

Lagos is an agbero wonderland
