CJ Obasi is one of the most proliflic movie makers in Nigeria.
He doesn't make movies ffor the Nigerian audience. He does it for international view.

No such thing as international movie award. Movie making is arts and arts is culture. Culture itself is clime-specific. Nollywood movie should never be rated with Hollywood standard. Hollywood movies like you rightly noted are more of visual entertainment while in nollywood, it is story based. Old nollywood producers were very creative storytellers, they only needed to develop in cinematography. Instead, however, the so called new ones out of inferiority complex started pursuing Hollywood standard and awards and abandoned storytelling. This is why most nollywood fans will tell nollywood movies these days are crap, despite the producers themselves claiming the industry has improved.
international awards, I mean awards like Oscar and the likes

Nollywood had the market when they include east and south Africa the market size will be well over 500 million people. They should shun Oscar and creat one for Africa. Improve on it and then start including films from those regions that hate the west. If they are consistent in 20 years we will wrestle the market or at least split it from Oscar.

We have the talent we have creative young man just that we should be ready to put in the work and not this half baked effort we put in everything
