To escape from this sort of prison, you simply need a parachute.

Edited:
I think you guys missed the point I made. When you parachute from a building that high, you don't just land in the ground, but you can guide your landing so far away (miles away) from the building. You can land on top of another building, in the street or even an ocean if its nearby.

With proper coordination, distractions can created too

Hillsong is a church, sadly a lot of people live in a bubble and haven't stretched themselves to see what else there is. Pastor Brian and Bobbie Houston are its founders. They have branches in major cities across the world, and minister to the locals in that country. What I can say about most of the African churches that we make noise about, is that the simply provide a service for their kind overseas and nothing else. Hillsong ministers to all and is located not far from Oxford Street in London for instance, while most CE branches are in areas that are popular with Nigerians. 95% of church members in reddened, Christ embassy, winners etc in the west are Africans, predominantly Nigerians. These lot aren't reaching any lost here, but providing an extended service of their churches to their Nigerian clients. Similar to mama Calabar restaurant and co in London, these restaurants have 95% plus Nigerian guest and simply cater to them. Just as these restaurants provide a service for their kind in the west, so are most of these churches. All those videos you see of white members fronting for the church is to make folks think they are reaching the lost. CE bermondsey, Christ embassy barking area, redeemed Jesus house, VPA church barking Essex and winners all provide an extended service to Nigerians and nothing else. Even the location of these other churches are in African areas.

Great news. Once the whole world perish, Nigeria might be the only remaining nation. It will be a new world ruled by Africans.

its not a secret Iran backs most Shiite worldwide, just as Saudi backs sunis worldwide, Vatican backs all Catholics worldwide or American Backing Saudi and Isreal in the middle east.. the only question is when has a Shiite killed anyone anywhere to tag them terrorist

Typical Western neo colonialism Propaganda always revolves around religions they used in colonizing the rest of the world, they know poor man fears religion rather than common sense

Simple facts

*Bin Laden the Father of modern day terrorism was from Saudi billionaire rich Family specially trained by CIA, and funded by US to lead havoc in the middle east, after US regime change Democrat Vs Republican they started fighting Alqaeda and Bin Laden retailiated, instead of fighting Saudi Bin Ladens Origin , US fought Afghanistan his adopted base and blew them to crumbs while they frolicked with Saudis

*ISIS was a rag tag anti Iraq government militias, US funded them, armed them and used them to fight Sadam Husien (because they wanted Kuwait Oil) , falsely claiming he had weapon of mass destruction, Isis delivered Sadam and continued wrecking havoc in Iraq and spreading like wild fire over middle east, while US base in Iraq turned blind eye

*Libya under Gadhafi enjoyed prosperity, and Sub Sahel Africa enjoyed peace, until the day Gadhafi proposed an idea of trading crude oil with gold or other commodity and not US dollars, they forcefully removed any form of authority in Libya and turned it to a command less country that they massively flood with Arms which flowed from Niger, Chad to Nigeria

* In the height of killing and bombing in Nigeria with tens of people being killed daily many Christian, Children and Women, the US issued a powerful sanction that Nigeria under Jonathan cant buy any weapon in the US or allied Nation, and weapon bought from other Countries cant fly over US allied countries, when Jonathan tried blackmarket in South Africa his money and plane was seized and at the end why did US purnish us so hard with people losing their lives and being blown apart? because we signed Anti Gay right bills in to Laws, same reason for withdrawal of sales of Ebola Virus

God Bless u Jor!

Please let me know when you've downloaded it so I can remove the link from here. Thanks.

Hello bro. I'm back again.

Attached is a slightly updated version of the script. I'll personally advise you read it from the beginning. Enjoy!

sholay2011:
Pls connect me o. It's like you know these people. I have disturbed Afolayan on Instagram to just give my script a read (he doesn't have to necessarily accept to work with it). I will reach Mo Abudu and Iroko as well once I'm sure I have a good script. Thanks for your support. I will like to also read something you're working on. We used to have so many scriptwriters here but everybody just disappeared.

You can also read the short film scripts I have on my profile (some even made frontpage).

sholay2011:
Abeg help me contact Kunle Afolayan oo

I plan entering into some scriptwriting competitions sometime later.

sholay2011:
I sincerely appreciate your feedback and I will put all you suggested in consideration. Though, I will like to explain some things since I have written the script further and have the ending in mind.

Most of the characters you called minor such as Femi, Jamiu, Moji etc. become important roles in the latter part of the story. It's either they directly influence the plot or justify organically the actions of the lead characters. Also, I can't represent Ms. Maureen as Interviewer #1 when there are like two separate interview scenes (of entirely different companies) in the script. It would rather lead to confusion for the reader.

I love your comment on the use of flashbacks but I'm not entirely sure you got the intent of them at every scene. This is not the "typical Nollywood flashback" wherr we just dump a load of info on the audience to reveal who is behind a problem. The script first appears being told chronologically but as we flashback to past events intermittently, it gives more context to the present and even more meaning. For example, the scene where Kemi left an interview devastated and crying on the road. I could have continued that she then ran into Femi. But that scene gets more meaning as it was shown as she narrated it to Lanre in form of the flashback and Lanre's response to bring up his govt job application. The subtext was Lanre was jealous a bit but from the story, Kemi didn't give Femi her phone no and so, no reason to get furious. The flashbacks subsequently tell us more about the relationship all the Contact 49 employees once had and what losing a job means as a whole: it's sometimes more than just losing money.

You got the subtext of Lanre was trying to impress her by bringing up the job. Most times in scriptwriting, it's all about what the character is saying AND not saying.

And yes, the theme of the script is survival as it relates to finding your place in the labour market as technology advances. But to reduce the script to "jobs, jobs, jobs" is like saying most Martin Scorsese mafia/mob movies (Goodfellas, Casino, The Irishman) are the same. The mob is the medium of these movies but the true story they tell are different. Job is the way to convey the themes but underneath, the true story is a happening. Also, the latter part of the script focuses less on jobs and more on 'marriage, marriage, marriage'.

Thanks very much for your feedback.

sholay2011:
Okay. I'll be waiting for your feedback. Thanks.

sholay2011:
I really appreciate your compliments oh, especially from a fellow scriptwriter. Please, find the attached document to this post. It is the latest and last update on what I've written so far. Of course, I won't be posting the whole script here.

Find the attached document to this post. I look forward to your feedback. Thanks.

Thank you bro for the critique. This is the 1st draft (in fact, I am just writing the script, far from done) of the script and will need to rework some of the dialogue and other elements like you suggested but the thing is what I was really going for was the naturalism anyway and your critique is sincerely good news to my ears.

Some movies thrive on being dramatic (or maybe cinematic like Quentin Tarantino) while some excel with being naturalistic (like Kenneth Lonergan). It also sounds more natural to you because you're a Nigerian. lol

Kemi is kinda a slightly passive character that is subject to her mother's influence but almost all you mentioned about how her struggles affect her relationship are already being emphasized in the pages that followed this excerpt. The thing with feature film script is you have to start with enough conflict to keep the interest without showing all your cards or become predictable when you still have a long way to go.

I appreciate your feedback.
