To think Joseph Benjamin was lamenting on twitter like 3 days before the movie was released about the Yorubas leaving the Ibo behind on movie production, and asking the Yorubas to tone down on their historical and cultural movies for "one Nigeria" reasons.
You dont mean it? For one Nigeria reason ??

Afam was a big and stupid ass simp !!!!

The comment I was desperately searching for. The nigga was simping to both his wife and Paulo at the same time. Talk about a embedding simping and foolishness in one man's life. Thank you brother for restoring hope in man-hood with this your comment.

That's NOT what Joseph Benjamin said. undecided

He said Nollywood was becoming fixated on TRIBAL/Ethnic movies such as Anikulakpo and others. sad

Just saw the movie today....




Mehnnn I was touched by the loyalty of afemefuna.... I am also astonished in the igbo culture of apprenticeship..... Though it is very challenging but if you can see through it, you will succeed...
Mehn, the place he called the boy to collect the kola nut and drink, I almost shed tears.


God. Bless Igbos.....

The part he was narrating what igbos went tru bcox of the war Ojukwu started and how they Started their lives with 20 pounds to being a millionaire and billionaire.

I also love the concept of brotherhood igbos adopted.. If one doesn't have, he will take you to his brother that sells what you need..







God bless Igbos

Igbo is beautiful - Igbo Amaka

I'll accept

Good video quality, nice presentation and carriage however I find the plot of the movie to be a joke.
In the Igbo Apprentice System, it is rare or unheard of to have a junior Apprenticeship been settled before a senior one. The rule has always been FIFO first in first out , so I really do not understand the plot the movie was trying to show.

In most cases where the FIFO is not followed, it is either the senior apprentice is sent parking, either through a misdemeanours like theft, grave offense like impregnating a female while still in the system.

In Summary, just like the military, the system has steps, from the rookie to the manager. The manager position is the final class of the Apprenticeship system, here the apprentice has unlimited power and only 2nd to the boss or business owner. So that part is still what I'm yet to come to terms with. However a good movie if you will forgive that plot.

Next is the issue of paternity fraud, this movie to a high extent shows that graduates of that school of business are basically 99% Simps! Easily easily blackmailed or deceived by the females. The reason is not far fetched as all students of this business model gives less than 3% of their time to socialising, you know meeting the opposite sex.

The only time they get to do these are on Sunday, when they arr allowed to go to church services and when carrying out domestics chores on Sunday, otherwise, it is all about the business, aloy depends on them successfully completing the internship.

Sadly, i lost my only brother to this system. Elder bros refused finishing up his term on his final year, a seven year business internship, decided going solo in the business, lagos island, isale eko in lagos, in the electrical wirings sessions.
Bros stated with Oso ahia and was making it in the line till words came around that his ex boss wants him out of the line. In summary , bro died , vomiting blood after attending a party.... the year was 2005. Keep resting in Peace Uchenna.



Chai! 😟

Well from the movie 'Apiriko' is not bad it is part of business so as a customer don't let them play you apiriko like Obum played that Lady with the tiles matter.

So 'apiriko' is perfectly legal.

Overall it's a solid movie.

CADA:
This actually happened in my family. The 2 junior boys were settled before one of my dads manager who came before the two. Fhe manager felt bad and people even talked about it. But guess what, a manager is a manager for a reason, he was delayed for several things, he had traits other new guys can learn easily, his settlement package was being arrnaged in a big way.
He fumed as expected because he is human, but at the end, he was settled with a car, 1 20ft of used motorcycles(japan), cash and was connected to my dad's direct contacts in Japan.
Just under 3years, this guy BLOW..... built house in the Villa, lagos and my guy is doing VERY VERY VERY well.
There is always a reason for everything. Once a "boy" is good to his OGA, forget it, settlement go come! The money isn't always the thing, but the BLESSING. As the blessing make the boy enter the gas office and link with oga finds anytime anyday.
Not in all situation, it happened to me and my oga bleeped up, but by the way God is in control.

I also felt Amaka betrayed afemefuna... She knows the kid isn't his but kept quiet...

Why do igbos allow paternality fraud?.
What if Paulo didn't die, is that how he would have been blackmailing afemefuna till eternity?

I called on the mods to push this thread to front page and they did...

To all nairaland moderators, as you have honored me, so shall you be honored in double folds grin grin grin grin




You are wrong... Odogwu knows Paulo is stealing from him and fuvking his daughter too... There was no way he would have bestow that honor on him

Afemefuna remained loyal. He even added extra money to the original sales
but odogwu was suppose to settle Paulo before afam, whether he is stealing or not, it is the amount given to him at settlement that will now send a message to Paulo, if he is a faithful servant or not, odogwu was to be blamed for how Paulo turn out
