Good to know Justice has been served

Freelane33:
Failed nation

fake news written by fulanis themselves

Fabricated piece of information for damage control purposes.
Name the natives

i hope the real muslims won't kill him for changing the language of their book and replacing "allah" with "Chukwu". He should also answer the Igbo version of Murtala.
But the cover translation of is wrong. Nso shouldn't come before.

shortIGBOman:
They have millions of Igbo Muslims in the East.

some of them in that picture are dead

confluence:
The first time I heard one mallam Chukwu emeka Suleiman was when I was doing SIWES in Kaduna refinery (1998) a personnel manager, it was very strange to me an Ibo man a Muslim

he changed his name to become the personnel manager, apparently.

Summary
HE HAS NO CHOICE

ATHEISTS.
Not the first time i'm hearing that.

this is not loking good
they have now admitted the record is inconsistent.

BleedTears:
You're uninformed.
If a legislature buil hospital or infrastructure it will be a crime right, or fire will burn it down.

For your information there is what is called Constituency Project and every senator receive 200 million yearly for Constituency Project.

It is called Constituency Allowance go and find out.

Don't be a fool little boy.
the main function of the legislature is lawmaking. provision of infrastructure is the domain of the executive.The so called constituency allowance is a scheme put in place no enable corrupt politicians recoup their campaign spending. it is corruption.Even if a saintly senator is able to build a world class hospital with that, he still needs to hand it over to the executive for management, and the usual will continue to happen.

Transcriber:
you call those YouTube ad ridden trash movies?

Well I dont

most so called cinema movies are also on youtube. and most times traditional nollywood movies have more views than them.

The same way some have vowed Biafra will never come until they'll soon see themselves lining up to beg for Biafran visa.

Chuksaluta:
You people have come again. In the 90s and early 2000s you guys mocked the igbo dominated nollywood for putting out substandard movies, but guess what? Those same movies were celebrated across Africa. We had stars from all tribes like Omotola, Ini edo, Jim iyke, Desmond Eliot etc.
Today the yorubas have invested more on cinematography which is good but trying to mock the Asaba industry that gave us a niche is what I don't agree. How many of this good quality movies make wave in Africa?
The only mistake I think the Asaba/Enugu film makers made was calling themselves Nollywood. A Sallywood or so would have give authenticity to them. Now after all the labour you guys benefiting from their foundation now mock them openly.
That's how you guys mocked Genevieve on her first nigerian movie on netflix, but today every Tom, dick and Harry have theirs.
The problem with us Nigerians is that we don't honour the labour of our heroes past.

Movie making is not about budget, it is about creativity. A poor storyteller has no bussiness in the movie industry. No matter how you invest, if the story is uninteresting, then the project is already a foundational disaster. This is why yorubas are investing a lot but don't excel in the inustry as they should.

theTranscriber:
I repeat

Only old asabawood propagate Igwe stuff

New movies don't do such

Even though people like me are annoyed by their obsession with the Igweship stuff, your claim is pure fact denial. Asaba is a new location for movies campared to Enugu and Lagos, there is nothing old in that vibrant nollywood hub, yet they produce epic daily and other movies as well. Visit youtube and type latest nollywood movie and you'll be shocked.

ArewaNorth:
But Kannywood is the first film industry in Nigeria. Movies were first shot in Northern Nigeria before the creation of Nollywood or any Southern film industry.

That isn't kannywood.

Transcriber:
do you have evidence for the otherwise?

Of course not

check again, i wasn't the one who made the claim.

leksite120:
Lol. It's an obvious and glaring fact.
Without even telling you, common sense would tell you that most cinema movies are produced in Lagos, that alone gives Yoruba the edge.

if this is your evidence, then, bye.

leksite120:
And that's the only thing you could deduce from there,. That's AMVCA guy, stop saying nonsense. It's still under Nollywood if you don't know.. Abegi. Be like you still dey live for 1975

AMVCA is just a ceremony multichoice use to promote their brand. African magic epic is the main movie channel of africa magic.it has more viewers than the other AM channels put together,and you know who 'owns' it. the actors there are more know and could care less about the awards. ROK can also start their own viewers choice award and award- obsessed yorubas will be sure to fall head-over-heels for it.

leksite120:
It's obvious you don't know anything about what you're saying, u even said the cinema movies are dominated by Igbos. Go and check it yourself na .

Do you have evidence yorubas produce more movies than Igbos on cinema or you simply want to keep repeating the lie until it becomes truth?

Industry Merit Award – Taiwo Ajayo-Lycett




Now check it yourself, who dominates the awards most. This is for this year. Note: the non-yoruba names there could also be South south as they're also very huge in the industry .

So an award that includes categories such as ' best social online content creator' and 'best lighting designer' is all you to prove you dominate nollywood? are you really ok?

leksite120:
Honestly, you're obviously not saying the truth or u don't know what you're saying. Firstly, either it's Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa movie, they're all called Nollywood. The ones you categorized as Igbo inclined is the Igbo version of Nollywood.

Yoruba dominate Nollywood. Infact, they speak Yoruba in English Nollywood than any other language, even the Igbos in the movies, don't you know that the fact that Nollywood is centralized around Lagos boost the Yoruba chance of dominating it? Likewise the music industry and other industries too.

Go check Nollywood cinema movies , most of them are more Yoruba inclined filled mostly with Yoruba actors. Do you know Kunle Afolayan? He's the most successful director that directs top notch and fantastic movies that are internationally-recognized and most of those movies display Yoruba culture.

If you doubt me, go and check Netflix and do survey of all the movies there only if you'll be sincere with your outcome.

It will take Yoruba 1000 years to dream of catching up on successes recorded by Igbo in nollywood. I do not need to engage into silly arguments with you. search about the NMVCB data on movies produced in the country and you see your true standing.

Mr Thomas said that the report put Lagos State with the highest number of movies produced for the period under review with 179, while Abuja followed with 164 movies and Onitsha is behind with 121 movies.

He said that the analysis by censorship location further shows that Kano had 42, Port Harcourt 26, while Jos and Benin recorded six and three movies respectively for the period under review.

While lagos usually take the first position, it is always by Abuja or Onitsha that comes second. Also worthy of note is while movies produced in Onitsha and elsewhere in the East are almost exclusively Igbo, movies produced in lagos are dominated by Igbos and independent Media companies such as multi choice and Iroko before yoruba producers. I can assure you even the cinema movies you banter words about, although occupy about 10% of the total movie volume, is still Igbo dominated,except yorubas are naturally 'loud'. I know about Izu Ojukwu, Obi Emelonye etc doing well there. Instead of arguing, pay more attention to 'executive producer' part while watching movies.

BleedTears:
Yes the boy is lying but is good. Ekweremadu should go and build hospital in his state and equippe it just like the one he went to in the UK.

Else he will still enter another hot soup when him or anyone in his family want to do leaver transplant or any other transplant.

The job of legislators is lawmaking not provision of infrastructure.

hayoholla:
Dino na mumu, even if British was aware of the nature if the trip. Chances are the boy was coerced, or forced under duress to undertake the trip. Worst case, the boy was not aware of the intention of the trip. The boy is still a minor.

Speculations!
There is no evidence yet the 'boy' is 15 just as there there is not yet proof of cover-up from ekweremadu. The tweet by arise journalist up there is unprofessional without stating they were allegations.

It has taken political tone

heard the kidney didn't match and the donor who was to return to Nigeria ran to UK police to seek asylum. Don't know whether he was the one or previous donor.

After that they will wait for bigger thieves to give them campaign handouts.

You might not like Wike, but PDP has made a grave mistake with the way they handled this!
Atiku will NOT win this election, mark my words..This election is somewhat between Tinubu and Peter Obi, though i beleive Tinubu will eventually win, but Peter Obi will put up a very good fight..The last person PDP should have stepped on his toes is Wike. That man has carried PDP on his back and his head and has been a party man for many years even when others deserted the party. He has earned his right to be supported as VP and believe me, if Wike had been selected, PDP would have stood a good chance of winning. Wike is an agbero, a real fighter. Wike is PDP's version of Tinubu in a way, though younger, more talkative and brutish. He can mobilise people easily and has boys everywhere in the Niger Delta..

I doubt if PDP will survive 2023.. Wike defecting to another party carries the same weight as Tinubu defecting to another party... They are both the heavyweights of their respective parties...
Okowa looks quite dumb.. sorry to say though

you sound like a kid

the applicant must have cut out the part he or she must have provoked the commissioner, Bro you see this social media, it's not everything you should believe. Alot of humans are very mischievous. Very very mischievous. An offender would be claiming to be the victim.

The frustrated applicant must have provoked, the commissioner, most of these anambra indigenes, they don't have respect, especially the women, i mean those born and brought up in anambra.

Everybody knows the ethnic group that use curse such as oloribuku to respond to greeting. If an Anambra person has insulted someone like you, then i am happy because you deserve it.
