Jagunjagun is a good one but there is a reason screen writing is a career in Hollywood.
The story as a whole is interesting to see. Coming from the Yoruba genre where Africa magic has made them lazy is a big push for the sect of Nolly wood.
The art direction was top-notch. The majority of the acting was awesome to say the least but the story development is not the best that it can be. Why is Ogundiji a terrible person? What is the need of showing the different kingdoms with no clear cut direction at first? Why did we learn Ogundiji had a son when he will not be a victim of revenge - except for part 2!
The school - I take is an idea from Spartacus - but what about showing us some classes. Then they were meant to be warriors but they did more of raiding. The honour of a warrior is lost in the needless murders of 'civilians'. Init?
It is possible the best Nigerian movie for a long time - it is definite the best action movie Yorubawood has ever since but Abija who create the genre deserved a shot and Lalude - those are the real veteran of the Yoruba action genres. I hope they get more scene time and be released from being used by skit makers.

The emboldened part is what gbotija talked about in the last battle with Ogundiji. The Op mentioned it in his piece now. Ogundiji didn't use them for the purpose why they were there instead ransacking villages for personal gains.

The Spartacus like scene is just for visual effects. It has a way of working the brain of the viewers. Americans do some of these things in their movies too.
If we look at history thoroughly, we might find out that something close to that happened.....

Anyway, it was a good movie and their can be improvement here and there like you said. Just like American movies too have one or two things to critique about. Examples are SISU, John Wick chapter 4 and others have some flaws in their story lines and all that.....

MT:
You don't need to say "lie here and there". It was my experience, respect it. Just like I respect yours.

It is an open fact that in the olden days Yoruba warriors chanted incantations in wars. Not fighting like Romans with swords.

Yourbas didnt have arena like Spartacus where they fight.

Go and watch "the woman king" - they tried to copy that movie and it turned bad.

Viewers will get carried away with the wacky storyline because of the visual effect. It's not a well thought out my movie.

That's my experience. You have yours and I respect it.

As for me, Anikulapo remains far Number 1

Anikulapo bawo 😆🤣. Let me leave here since it's your opinion ☺️

The man was probably taking much drugs than his body could assimilate.

Real killers let action do the talking

He is just behaving like the IPOB miscreants in Nigeria 😆🤣

IconicR:
Obi cannot even smell or stand where this Ngozi Ezenwanyi Okonjo Iweala is standing. She's everything the fake messiah wishes to be. Instead of them to be fielding this kind of person they'll be fielding rubbish and expecting the masses to follow them like mumu.

I agree with you on this one....

DevilishMan:
Sokoloan is fighting back.

😆🤣🤣🤣😂

Penguin2:
Tinubu is showing disdain for the Armed Forces, I hope they don’t return the favour to him someday.

First, he appointed an ex police officer to supervise them as NSA.

Now he’s going to appoint a civilian as Minister of Defence.

From my knowledge of history and power, this is a recipe for disaster.

But what do I know?

Their is no disaster anywhere, you guys just have a preconceived notion that things have to be a certain way because they have always been like that.

NSA doesn't have to come from a rank and file. One thing I know PBAT has always complained against is officials working at cross purposes.

Having the the military hierarchy throughout the chain of command is not a good thing for a democracy. Imagine having a military ONSA, military minister coupled with the service chiefs HABA!!

We should kill the idea of military in a democratic settings. What we should do is to fund them effectively for equipment, staff welfare, adequate training and so on.

The message PBAT is trying to pass in a nutshell is that the military should remain in the barracks and securing the country from external aggression and not in the government!

Tntsi:
Whether he shuns ex generals or not, he remains unconstitutional.

As for the coup in Niger, I believe one of the major enabler of the coup is the presidential election in our nation.

There may be other reasons but I believe the presidential elections in our country and the response from supposed fathers and elders gave the coup plotters in niger a major courage.

The constitution which is the fabric that holds democracy in our nation has been desecrated.
Democracy in our country is dead. Nigeria is under a political coup. Respected leaders and fathers in the land who should have made their voices to be heard turned a blind eye.
Some of them have gone to mediate in niger and the young men refused to listen.

Peharps ,if our respected fathers and elders have raised their voice against the coup in Nigeria, our brothers in niger would have listened to them.

Olodo! Continue to enjoy your Colos 😆🤣

jaxxy:
tinubu picking sm1 else bt changing it to keyamo just cos he was being trolled online is what sound like a joke. 🤡🤡

Learn to read properly....he changed her with another northerner and not Keyamo. Keyamo was an addition.

Replacing of the lady goes to show that PBAT will not hesitate to remove any non performing minister 🤡🤡🤡

jaxxy:
strategist are not necessarily rational it depends on the game plan. in this scenario keyamo was ahead of tinubu.

🤣😆 Even you know that you are just clowning 🤡🤡

stanisbaratheon:
Of all the 40 something nominees it is a woman Tinubu had to replace with loud mouth Keyamo

Why don't you guys read in this age! She was replaced with a northerner and Festus Keyamo was only added to the list.

richidinho:

They used it in Lagos and it worked for them

Yankee101:
The only guy that opposed removing Ihedioha when Ariwoola spear headed it

I hop this is a natural death sha

obiDENTS can say it's PBAT that murdered him.....I know how those people think 🤔. May his soul rest in peace.

VinnyBaba:
'He will pick Only Technocrats as Ministers'.

Are Wike and El-Rufai Technocrats? 😏😒

USELESS, Shameless, satanic party.

Una go cry tire because where did he promise according to you "only" technocrats 🤣😆

You smoke this early morning?

It's not about smoke....Americans are very funny. They will want to force that nonsense gay rights on Nigeria because Tinubu is liberal.

Dafresh:
Can Dave Umahi be a Senator and a Minister at the same time?

He will leave his position as a senator and a bye election will be conducted for the seat...

saphiere:
Dirty boy. Putting his electric pole in every thing that has a hole.

Why has Chef Chi not sue this bustard yet?
You took a girl out of school, way from her family only to destroy her.

God will punish David Adeleke.

1. Who are those students? What's the proof? Even if Chioma failed, it was because Davido disrupted her studies. I can remember during one of her exams time, Davido flew her to Dubai, kept her there for a week.

So Davido forced her to Dubai? Habi she can't reject the offer! When will you reason straight for once 🤣🤣

TechCapon:
Never heard of her

Lol, you must be GenZ

Blackscorpion1j:
Economist in the house...What is the implications of this CBN decision on the common MAN in NIGERIA....Please no insult...I just want to learn...

Direct and simple answer -it reduces inflation (too much money in the system).

Winneepye:
This will encourage savings and reduce money is circulation. It will also encourage investments in the economy, but make borrowing difficult.

Yea, too much cash in the system which is affecting inflation.

GRACEGLORY:
What!


How do you intend to cool the economy. Now it becomes more expensive to borrow money, consumers will definitely refrain from making purchases and spending reduces. Yet fuel price is alarming.

This rate hike won't bring down pump price, will it?

Too much liquidity in the economy..... so the CBN did this to manage inflation in the country. When the economy stabilizes, they can now begin to reduce the interest rate gradually.

Some Mugu will start Crying Now!!

One Racoon don dey cry already 🤣🤣

ClearFlair:
Only donkeys support APC at this point

Keep on crying 😂😂 while baboons supports Hellupee

Yankee101:
Boko haram has not been active in Adamawa
This was why we were worried about Shettima
I’m not saying he’s responsible but historical anecdotes don’t favour him
They used Boko haram against Jonathan
They know if there’s a rerun, Obi won’t and can’t win northern nigeria, so Atiku will likely be president and Obi won’t mind supporting his former boss Atiku

All of Una permutations just make me laugh 😂 everyday. All this rerun, disqualify, cancel, arrest that you have been shouting since election will amount to naught ....

alanto:
Lol... Watch how weed people will connect
Tinubu with Boko Haram

The comedic Op self has connected Tinubu with terror already 🤣😂. That's the purpose of his funny post 🤣...

It seems your article was created simply to bash Tinubu using UK women to spice it up. All the jabs are really not necessary..

WildChild00:
Elumelu and Tinubu connection

This is not about Elumelu and Tinubu. Most of the Labour party candidate didn't do the right thing. LP NWC were busy substituting candidates everywhere including Peter Obi which didn't meet the date they were supposed to send party membership names to INEC ...
