Aek anthens should not try rubbish with me oo
No be just to score goal, how hard is that?

When dangote refinery was in construction, I chanted fuel price will reduce when it's completed, a friend and some nairalanders said dangote won't bring it down, that he's greedy and a monopolist, I argued it's lie, now my eyes are opened

Life is like that you win, I win, besides Naija is One.

Even uptill now mod and the originator of this thread never correct this headline error,
See people wey Seun dey pay salary,
If it were me, I would have sacked the mod and take police to his house and arrest him and lock him up,
U all think it's only Nigerians that comes to nairaland

The table is turning around.

In order to see other people's yansh clearly, you will need to bend down but unfortunately as you are bending down, so as you will also expose your own yansh

Food don land
Envy begins here now

Wow so the commissioner of police during abacha's regime also made his money through abacha....

So the staffs of Nigerian brewery during abacha's regime, made their money through abacha....

Obi was never a member of abacha's cabinet, neither did he hold any political post, .... why's scrutinizing tulumbu so difficult for you laptop boys.... I expected you guys to say

Obi stole 20k naira during abacha's regime while working voluntarily to decongest the crowded apapa wharf .... But you can't point what he stole.... Is working in abacha's administration now a crime ?

All these hungry tulumbu laptop boys are just delusional I swear

The worst part is they all use windows xp Pentium 2 laptops apc got for them

judewrites:
Snub keh??

Just have money and many of them fall over you like a pack of cards...

Ladies tend to snub broke guys and marry guys with cash.

That's why love is so scarce today.

Many have left the rich men's home,
Divorce here and there, it's not about money anymore, some ladies marry men who satisfy dem very well in bed

Samantha125:
You meet him today and he'll already be telling you how much he loves you the following day, that time you don't even know each other... What if I'm a crazy lunatic?

Crazy lunatic lady gets pregnant, no be person sleep with dem?
Wonder who told u crazy people don't want sex

Evaress:
Some of you will look at it as if she is giving an attitude, but honestly she is just trying to protect herself from predators and from getting used and dumped.

Do you know how many guys have given girls a lot of empty promises, taken their virginity and ended up dumping them?

It’s always the girl that carries all the cross. She suffers all the shame. She carries the unwanted pregnancy.

Guys will say anything just to have you in bed with them. And how would you know the real ones?
Even the quiet, innocent-looking ones — those guys do the worst.

Its just a fun game for a lot of guys.

tell me dear,
Who broke ur heart?
I pray it's Seun so I can deal with him tremendously

This topic on a Sunday?
U people deserve what u get from ur leaders, cos......make I no talk, I just come back from bann

We should double check before posting to avoid conveying the wrong message due to incorrect spelling. The op wrote black instead of block

The mod that pushed it to front page nko?
Just pushed without reading,
Yes u can type and make error, that's where mods come in since it's going to headlines,
If nairaland mods are newspaper publishers, no body go buy their paper

Richtaiwo:
There is no difference between Sowore, Atiku and the packaged fraud. All they do is to promise heaven and earth. Sadly, that is the fantasy that impress overgrown puppies and the more reason they keep polluting the social media with crippled accolades for their fraudulent messiah.

Did ur headmaster packaged fraud tinubu not promise more than that?

duro4chang:
Do this people actually know what they are proposing?

He's just another liar it's written all over his face

My father passed away and willed all his property to his grandchildren, noting to us, his children

Wetin happen?
Is it ur property?
Get ur own property and will to whom ever u like,
As if his grand kids aren't ur children

UrPapa:
Out of inferiority complex, I can tell you most igbos intentionally pronounce Yoruba words incorrectly
If you can’t speak a language incorrectly, then let someone that can do take the role

I will reply this ur post with ur username and I will shout it loud

Throwback:
I realize that social media is all about generating traffic for matters that are not even worth examining nor debating.

Comparing apples to oranges.

if the example cited about Ollie Gee's song was relevant, it would have been that the Ijaw lady would have been singing Ijaw choruses and making Ijaw exclamations instead of the Igbo chorus and exclamations we all enjoyed in that Igbo song.

A parting advice to all Igbos as I have always made on this forum. Stop cloaking yourselves with a persecution complex. You should refrain from always seeking to be a victim.

What do u mean by persecution, who went to usa Hollywood to disgrace herself?

Jegede shokoya of new masquerade was igbo but portrayed yoruba on new masquerade of the 80s,
The sitcom was never shot in Lagos or any other south west, when I was in pry school I thought he and his wife ramota in the sitcom were yoruba,

Yet we enjoyed it, both Christians and Muslims, and all tribes in mostly southwest, south east and south south,
Omotola wasn't professional,
When u are a Nollywood super Star, an upcoming Hollywood beginner is bigger , take it or leave it,
I love the reply,
I DONT CARE

The only way for the price of cement and fuel to come down is to remove Tinubu from office.

I swear , any how remove by position or the other way,
Remove na remove
he doesn't care at all,
Gej was a wimp but he has conscience and pity,
Obasanjo was fair,
But buhari and tinubu are just evil ,
E no go better for those wey kill sani abacha

manuelkel:
Which federal government?? The government that created this hardship?
Nigerians were warned about this hardship yet we accepted it wholeheartedly.

Because of some certain tribe and religion were in power ruling , they cared less

iEatAnus:
Incase you are wondering, even I, do not know why I created an account with such username in 2019.

Anyways, who would like to join on a vacation to Burundi?!!

Wetin wan carry me go south Africa and Iran and mostly Muslim countries where I can't go and eye one babe there without dem stoning me to death

I just moved from Nokia android to Tecno,
That Nokia wan kiii me, scarce parts, expensive parts, the money I spent in trying to repairing it ehhh!!
It was cheaper getting a good used Tecno andriod 12, which has a higher ram space and so on, while my Nokia was still on Android version 9
Oboy port to another phone,
My techno screen is compatible with so many phones, itel, spark 8c,
Spark 9t, Infinix Hot 12i, (x6512), itel s18, pop 7 pro upto 12-15 phones uses exactly my screen, so it will be difficult for the phone parts to faded away quickly in the market

triplechoice:
You're the one now tribalising the issue.

Anyone can take on any role. It doesn't matter. What matters is that they try as much possible to portray the role accurately. In this case, the Ibo person was born in the diaspora and even struggle to speak the Ibo language very well.


The issue is about the mixing of Yoruba and Ibo, not why an Ibo person should be allowed to play the role of a Yoruba person.

Omotola wasn't against an Ibo person playing that role. She was against the misrepresentation of a major Nigerian language. That's all.

Leave story oga body too dey pepper una,
Someone said ewo in a yoruba movie, is ewoo a word or just reaction?
Someone says eyaahhh is it a language? All tribes say it due to one reason, it's not a language, let me buy data for u so u can play the video online and stop claiming what's not true,
Did morgan freeman not potray Mandela movie, was he speaking like South Africans,
Did South Africans complain,
Una go carry una wahala go disgrace una sef in USA
USA don't give a fnck , all they know is u are Nigerian

triplechoice:
No. You have misunderstood me I haven't condemned Omotola . I said she did the right thing.
The person who took on the Yoruba role was mixing Yoruba and Ibo ,and getting away with it since the foreign producers don't know the difference.
.
Mixing Yoruba and Ibo is not the same as not being to pronounce Yoruba properly.

If the role were reversed and it was a Yoruba actor in a foreign set, mixing Yoruba with Ibo she still would complained.
Please go watch the interview and make your conclusion.

The 1978 movie Jesus of Nazareth was england and Italian stars acted it not Israel,
Most movies u see of Americans fighting ISlamic nations are all American who acted them, black panther is American not African movie,
I have seen so many movies where they potray a person as Nigerian and he's not,
She's not the director of the movie, she should just face what she's thee for,
Are u telling me that Hollywood don't know where to find a yoruba for that role?
Hollywood is only seeing a Nigerian portraying that role not yoruba not hausa,
Na we dey divide this country by ourselves not the west,
Omotola should just act , get paid and get off

LabStores:
Only people being deliberately obtuse will backlash her over this.
It's just disgusting and irritating how sentimental some people think...

She literally said the movie is about Yoruba and Egun, and somebody is there shouting “Ewo,” “egbwemo,” and other Igbo chants. What exactly is she supposed to do? Smile, keep quiet and pretend everything is fine because she’s an actor and does not want to trigger some people? WHO CARES!?

If the cultural setting is Yoruba, then why are you forcing another ethnic culture into it and expecting everyone to just shut up when they point it out?

And this is what annoys me about Nigerians. The moment someone raises a genuine cultural issue, some people start screaming “tribalism!” as if that word automatically ends the conversation.
Igbos and others please!!!
Not every disagreement is tribalism. Not every cultural correction is hatred. Not every time someone says, “This doesn't belong here,” are they attacking your tribe.

Stop forcing tribal sentiments into everything. It is exhausting, intellectually lazy, and frankly disgusting.

Mr interpretator
If ewo is igbo,
It means eyahhh too igbo,
But yoruba say it , akwa ibom say it,
Oh!!! Yoruba own is AHHHHHH!!!!
which school u go, these are just expressions, I am ashamed of u

Antoeni:
That Story Omotola Told Might Even Be a Lie

The missing piece in Omotola’s story

1. VeryDarkMan came out swinging for Omotola.

2. But there is one tiny problem.

3. Nobody seems able to find the movie.

4. We searched (see evidence below)

5. Major Hollywood studio? No name.

6. African-inspired production? No title.

7. Igbo actress? Unidentified.

8. Egun/Ogu, Yoruba and/or Pidgin in the same project? No confirmed production found.

9. Sound-recording session? No public credit.

10. Omotola’s known US-linked films? None fits the story.

11. Even The Woman King, the obvious Hollywood film connected to Dahomey, has no public record linking Omotola to its cast, ADR, language work or production.

12. What is the Name of The Movie?

13. Because once we have the title, we can check the cast, the languages, the production company, the recording credits and perhaps even hear from the mysterious Igbo woman herself.

No mind dem my brother,
They are all like that

triplechoice:
Tribalism is a big problem in this country. She wanted the right thing done, by the Hollywood producers . That's all. So why the backlash?

She thought Hollywood is Nollywood where they open their smelly thing and a director or producer will enter thereby making them do whatever she says,
Omotola should get out jare

femi4:
They always claim to be victims

Omotola was talking about professionalism but trust people that has never rule the Country by election to turn it to tribal war

Disgusting ,
Is this all u have to say?
Always tribal, where u there when it happened?
Did she tell the whole truth,
U think Hollywood is Nollywood where they think they are queens , directors and producers would bow to them?
