oyaskii: The Origin: Madam Koi Koi Part 1/E1 (2023).
9ja boarding house most popular myth comes to life!.
A long review.....pardon 🙏🏿
I have been feeling quite overwhelmed lately that i have basically just mentally tapped out off seeing movies/series and i think i barely scraped through just about 3 movies all October, Terrible terrible form 😩, but when i saw this popular urban legend coming to the big screen i had to obliged. Billed as a 2 part affair or episodes if you will, so i am hoping this review falls within the purview of this thread.
This first part/episode was really really good as a pace setter and i am quite surprised how well put together the writing and character development was, it clearly showed, some really serious people were in charge.
Madam Koi Koi mythology is not a new tale, if you were born in the 70s, 80s, 90s and even to some extent, Gen Z, will totally be able to relate to it. This retelling had our central character, Amanda, changed school, to a Catholic boarding school in the fictional town of Malomo in the 90s, as she begins her sojourn in this new school, she keeps being jolted by a nightmare, of a certain unnamed horror with "a red koi koi" shoe, lurking in the shadows , and we are quickly reminded, why we are here and things are definitely not as they seem in this school and indeed the town.
I know i have praised the writing, but the acting and delivery was equally top notch, only a few known faces, but the newbies stole the show!. There was a rape scene, that was so well acted that i had to actually fast forward it at the time, because of how true to life and grossly disturbing it was! Impeccable acting!
As with Nollywood movies set in the olden times, continuity error always seems to rear it's ugly head, and i was on the look out for one, and they almost didn't disappoint, the setting, props, Clothing style fit the era it was set, being 70' to 90's. The pulled out a fresh "tortoise" car and i was wondering were they got one, so pristine lol. The students especially the girls, on first look, looked over age to play teenagers in sec school, but then again these are, how mature, girls used to look in sec school back then, i have my mum's sec school photos to confirm 😃, so props to the casting crew. The little blot, was when one character used a popular phrase that only came out in real life about 2 years ago, so there's no way it is been said in a movie supposedly set in the 90s, i voiced out my concerns to the lead actress on X (formerly known as Twitter) and she duly replied and said it was rather anachronism and not a continuity error, it seemed a rather convenient answer but i allowed it because of how good the other continuity props were. And, also it was billed as horror, and one of the new genres Nollywood is exploring, but they are still piss poor at it, the jump scares in this were so minimal and scaled to zero, it rather made the whole thing look like a drama, but then again, horror movie makers here are still relying heavily on make up to bring that horror flair because VFX use is still alien here, and i know horror make up can be quite expensive and only few make up/costume studios offer such services, but i would really love them to up the horror ante in the next part .
Even though they already promised that it was a 2 part affair, i was kicking myself when it ended abruptly as things were kicking into proper gear. Thank goodness the next part isn't too far away.
For now, this is a great intro that seems to stick a decent landing in what they were trying to do, so on to the next one.
7/10. You wrote all these things and still have them 7/10, Bros you go dey stingy with marks oo |

I just got a replacement battery for my Redmi Note 9s this afternoon after someone was recommended here.... but this is the battery performance I'm experiencing since I fully charged the battery.
Is this normal for a new battery SOT before it gets fully charged from maybe less than 20% cos it's been dormant?? Or it's yet to get in sync?? please where did you get the battery replacement from cos I have been asking for the battery replacement in Lagos Island but couldn't find |

Abidema2: Tecno is a very bad it still has a primitive chip set. They just use ram and Rom to deceive people that don't know much about phones. Tecno will still hang. Chip is the most important thing to look at if you want a smooth going phone, Look for a phone with snapdragon 865 and above chipset your phone will rarely ever hang. please can you give us a list of phone with Snapdragon cos I also need phone with in that budget too |

NSNO: I don't support Tinubu but floating the naira and removing subsidy was the best thing to do. Alot of Nigerians don't understand how bad our economy is, they think its just to build roads and start farming etc. Nigeria's economy needs a complete overhaul and the measures taken yet are just the beginning. More hardship is on the way but like the saying the darkest hour is just before dawn, Nigeria's dawn is almost here, we just have to endure the darkness a little longer. We also heard this shit during IBB austerity measures, has Nigeria been better since then? You can't implement two economic measures at the same time in a dying economy,you do one first before you start another one. Had it been that our refinery has been upgraded to a certain capacity, then remove subsidy or partial subsidy, then, what for a year and 6months before floating the naira people would have had a breathing space without over hypa inflation. You cannot just wake up and announce subsidy is gone without putting measures, even most export based economy is yet to float their currency is it now Nigeria that doesn't produce anything talk more of exporting anything apart from crude will now float their currency and expect to be fine. |

And Pastor Damina is right... we need to understand that "God does not interfere directly in all these small and great woes or activities of men from the very beginning; He has woven his perfect laws into His creation. They do their work automatically and incorruptibly, so that all may be fulfilled and work on uniformly without ceasing without prejudice in favour of or detriment to anyone. It is not necessary for the Creator to interfere in any special cases, this work goes on without intermission or favouritism and it has no deficiencies; so, what people call Miracle is just some laws we obeyed without knowing" |
