"Igbo ladies or men that marry Yoruba men or women are those living in Yorubaland. This makes perfect sense in terms of whom you meet most everyday on the streets you tread. Check out from Emeka Anyaoku to Prof Emeka Ike, to the new ones marrying Yoruba, they always lived and met their spouses in Lagos. How many Yoruba live outside Yorubaland how much less meeting a non-Yoruba to marry?"

The best statement on this thread, it is still low though but slowly increasing. However most mixed marraige in Nigeria tend to be high among the southeastern and southern tribes of Nigeria compared to the tribes in other parts like hausa's and Yoruba's, but the main fact is the inter-tribal marriages between yoruba's and igbo's are mostly between igbo women and yoruba men(Yoruba women don't because they are content with their yoruba men & never really marry outside their tribe), secondly it is mostly igbo's that are living and most likely was born & grew up in Yorubaland. Not the igbo's outside yorubaland. Most Yoruba's are content in their land and don't go outside their land to mingle with other tribes. So I think this threads title is a little mis-leading because it isn't high and it depends on the area in Nigeria. So this this is a no brainer, for me personally I only prefer yoruba men or mixed yoruba men(that are raised in yoruba culture) & the yoruba's I am around whether family or friends stay with their own; I am not down playing this because it is happening but not in high numbers. So I think this thread is a little hyped as far as I am concerned.

CanImServ:
Nigeria has the highest nø of educated people among the blacks, more bright minds, most wits, and has been at the receiving end of many national and internatiönal injustices. But which countries has caused the most confusion and wars in Africa?! (RWANDA-BURUNDI, LIBYA, SUDAN Or ZIMBABWE) Who are d professional spies of this world? Open your eyes.

we Nigerians are great

sexsinners:
really well god bless them. God has really looked out for them, these days evil devilish men like to violation virgins a lot.

i believe these women should carry weapons or not be alone to prevent these actions

Being a virgin is good but there are many good women out there that are not virgins, I don't think it is fair to demonize them

Yes, many of them exist

it's true marriage always has problems or troubles, the test is to overcome those problems; it is just a fact of life.

danny212:
^^Women and clothes

@ op i strongly disagree with fred. There is more to this issue that meets the eye, if nelson fails to apologise she stands to risk the way she is been seen. And not only will this affect her it will also affect any career she goes into outside acting

Whats wrong with women liking clothes; we love to look good

Any way when it comes to Yvonne nelson, from what I have been hearing she is becoming successful in other businesses & when she was banned she was still doing Nollywood movies. That I never knew she was banned from Ghollywood or noticed it until it was announced but it still didn't make a impact in her career because it didn't show and I don't think Yvonne felt the heat because she had other alternatives.

p.s. please elaborate though why Yvonne not apologizing will affect her career? because I am not a strong follower of Yvonne but it seems she is doing good. Did she do something else bad in Ghana that Nigerians don't know about?

Michelle Obama is ok with fashion but sometimes their have been hit and misses with her but in the end of the day I don't think any first lady would ever be on Heidi klum's Project Runway's show

rokiatu:
I didn't read shi t, luv what she is wearing.

All black everything.

yeah she really looks beautiful and stunning in her outfit

Dgunnerz:
Good series.
check it out ASAP!

Thanks

Both of 'em have got a big fan in me and they are actually beautiful but, I think I'll give the crown to Yvonne Okoro. Aside being beautiful, she's got this aura and diction that I like.  Something about her just says woman, class. . . .Need I also add that she's a good actress.

[quote author=Sisi_Kill link=topic=759943.msg9153346#msg9153346 date=1316098480]Lmao @ Gollywood and their bans.

They must really think they are Hollywood!! [/quote]I guess so, I don't get it

[b]"We have read and heard a lot from various industry stakeholders on the controversial ban which was imposed on Actress Yvonne Nelson nearly a year ago. As at now, the state of this ban (whether it is still in force or not) cannot be clearly ascertained.

Film Producers Association of Ghana (FIPAG), the industry machinery behind the ban has strongly insisted that the ban is still in force whiles Abdul Salam-the person Yvonne Nelson was said to have grossly subjected to contempt is saying he has forgiven her. Though Salam’s recent statements to a greater extent suggest that the ban has been lifted, we are still kept in the dark by FIPAG.
The latest to add his voice to the Yvonne Nelson saga is Fred Nuamah, the founder and CEO of Ghollywood Production-the organisers of the prestigious Ghana Movie Awards.

I have decided to give this the necessary audience because Fred Nuamah in his submission pointed out some serious flaws in the way and manner the whole Yvonne Nelson incident was handled.

According to Fred Nuamah, his disappointment does not only rest on the fact that Yvonne Nelson has decided to apologise at this last hour of serving her undeserved and illegitimate
punishment but also the fact that Yvonne Nelson is seriously doing far more better for herself than the time she was fully working as an actress and would probably let all these go down the drain in her desperation to come back to an industry which unfairly treated her.

Speaking to GhanaCelebrities.Com, Fred Nuamah repeated mentioned that, the way Yvonne Nelson has been treatment is absolutely disgusting. “For a young talented girl to be fairly treated like this is not only degrading but also inhuman. If a child wrongs the father, she is under an obligation to apologise and the father is also under a corresponding duty to accept this apology instantly and forgive the child” he
said.

Fred continued “Yvonne Nelson did what is expected from a good child. She apologised to Abdul Salam at the infant stage of the whole controversy, Yvonne further mobilised her industry friends including Majid Michel and her manager to help apologise to Salam which the latter refused to accept. Is it therefore not Ironic that an apology has been accepted and the girl is said to have been forgiven at this late hour? ”

Fred Nuamah considers it disheartening that those in charge of the ban requested Yvonne
Nelson to go and publicly apologise for a crime which she allegedly committed in what can be termed as a private place. “If she disrespecting Abdul Salam on a movie set was the core reason of the whole confusion, why ask her to go and apologise via TV, radio or any other form of media?”

What baffles the mind of the Founder of Ghana Movie Awards even more is the rationale behind Yvonne Nelson’s late hour apology and its acceptance after enduring about 9 months of substantial loss of income, insults and disrespect.

“If she has been able to swallow 9 months of disrespect and dirty industry politics which nearly killed her career, talent and dignity, why can’t she bear 3 months…? Remember, Yvonne is one of the top 3 Actresses in the country. This achievement is enough to make anyone proud so to throw all that away in desperation when you have suffered for 9 months with only 3 months to go is questionable”.

During Fred’s chit chat with GhanaCelebrities.Com, he also acknowledged and commended Yvonne Nelson for how well she has been able to do for herself during this bad time.
“Yvonne has done so much for herself in the last 9 months that she probably had not been able to do for all the years she worked as an actress. The girl has successfully launched her Glaucoma foundation which is doing great in helping our society. She has also bought a new top of the range car and has launched her own weave/wig collection” he added.

This may come as a bit unrealistic but it makes a lot of sense and it is the best advice I have heard anyone give to Yvonne Nelson since her incident with Abdul Salam and subsequently FIPAG.

Fred thinks “Yvonne Nelson should have consider her own production, a TV show or something she can do without having her talent being oppressed for any little misconduct. She should not be desperate to be in the movie industry when she is already doing a lot for herself. Her desperation to come back should not make her accept future wrong treatments that may come her way without saying anything as a result of fear of being banned. We have passed the culture of silence, fear and oppression”

As radical as this may sound, Fred says the best thing for Yvonne Nelson to do is go through the 3 months of the ban and then after that, ban herself. “If I were Yvonne, what I would have done is serve the 12 months of my ban and then after than ban myself. I mean, not work for any of those people” he said.

What do you guys think about this?"[/b]

Larrey:
@anonymous,u were asking don campos d most talented among genny nd rita,i think nd i knw perfectly dat genny is a born actress.u also asked me y i dnt like omotola,i dnt lik her cos she's verrrrrrry pompous,i dnt want 2 go into details.

I think Omotola & Genevieve are the top talented Nollywood actresses today but I think Omotola is great however you are free to have your opinion of her(Omotola), no biggie, but I have heard some people at the same time complain that Genevieve thinks she is all that with a attitude and say omotola is down to earth. So I guess different strokes for different folks.

Ah! These Arabs and their wahala.  Its all in the name of GOD as well thats what irritates me.  When are people going to wake up and see Radical Islam for what it is.

Amen

[b]"They tied the knot just two months ago, but speculation is already running rampant that the marriage between Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries is on the rocks -- and although Kim admits there's been tension, she seems to think what they're experiencing is only natural given the circumstances.

"It's not been ideal because you're newlyweds and you want privacy," Kim told People while celebrating her 31st birthday in Las Vegas with her family and hubby. Alone time is something the couple's packed schedule has hardly allowed for since their wedding. Living in a New York hotel suite while filming "Kourtney and Kim Take New York," the newlyweds shared the intimate space with Kourtney, her boyfriend and their 22-month-old son Mason. Sharing a hotel room with family, including a toddler, is hardly an "ideal" honeymoon for anyone, even a family as close-knit as the Kardashians.

"It's a tough crowd," Khloe said, speaking of her own family. "I think it's just a lot of transition [for him]."

Khloe, however, remains confident the two can overcome the rough start. "It's a work in progress," she says of her older sister's marriage. "I really think he's a nice guy, and he loves her."

Kim's mother Kris Jenner seems to think the marital tension is purely work-related. "They're going two separate directions (with work)," Kris told People. "They'll figure it out as soon as they get back."

"We have to find our home base," admitted Kim, echoing her mother's sentiment. Currently, the couple is back in Los Angeles, where they have appeared several times on "Dancing With the Stars" to support Kim's younger brother Rob during the competition.

Even that brief on-camera appearance fueled negative rumors, however. Us Weekly described the two as "showing not one iota of affection" to each other during the show. Then again, some couples shy away from PDA: it's not like the two people have to be constantly touching each other to show their love."[/b]

congratulations to them both

pendo89:
They have been around for while.Remember the twin bombings of the US embassies in TZ and Kenya in 1999?
They later tried to shoot down an Israel plane in Nbo.They however bombed a coastal resort in Mombasa Kenya (loved by the Israelites) at around the same time when they were being tracked. As if that was not enough,they killed Ugandans while they were watching football in a famous club.Okay they have been carrying out silly bombings here and there can't put them all down.
They are the reason Somalia is not developing. That is why Kenya is carrying out 'operation linda nchi' to flush them out and let somalis go back to their country.
They are a bunch who use fear to terrorise people. Soon they will be history as somalis reclaim back their country from them.
The somali transitional force needs lost of support to achieve this.

It is true I remember the Kenyan city bombings, and if I am not mistaken Osama was directly responsible for it, so Yeah I know they have been around for a while in Africa. These terrorist are a menace to society, & I have heard that they are the ones influencing the issues in Somalia & caused the issues in Sudan, but I didn't know about Kenya but at least these issues are being addressed in those countries. Africans have enough problems then crazed terrorist trying to slow our progress.

Dgunnerz:
Just got a new TV series(Strike Back) and found out that he is also a Villain.
This guy is pretty awesome

Thanks for the info, I didn't know. Will the new TV series be on HBO or showtime or regular cable channels? Ever since he was in the movie bourne identity with Matt Damon I became a fan, he really is a good actor, especially as a villain or bad guy. He represents naija very well and doesn't pretend to be something he is not.

jennykadry:
^^Just start up a thread with a pic of Kim K and Jlo's backside and watch some people admire them and wish that they came back to that every night . Open the same thread on a Nigerian Celeb and see these same people say nonsense . This is one reason why Nigeria is not moving forward.

LOL, From my understanding I heard it is because they find big booties on demographics that are known not to be prevalent with big booties(specifically white women like Kim Kardashian) to be fascinating(especially black american men) but a demographic like Black women that are known to have behinds are taken for granted by a few. I don't think it is the majority that criticizes Omotola for it because many times I have heard of Omotola being brought up, most of the time dude's talks about her a$$ in a positive way, so I won't let that bother you. Almost all Black men would never go out with a flat a$$ women, only big booty women. I hear them express it alot on this forum, so for a few to complain about Omotola's behind seems out right ridiculous to me. Everybody knows Omotola and Mercy Johnson are known for their big a$$es and they are praised for it many times

jennykadry:
Kim Kardashian has the same behind her back, and what do we Nigerians do? admire it but say thrash about or own.

Jobless enemy of progress.

Cosign 100%, Omotola has a feature(behind) that 99% of black women all around the world have, so for some people to complain about Omotola's behind is funny to me.
