Yeah I'm a great buff of bollywood. But i'm wondering if there was a remake of the movie in the late 80's cos i watched a bollywood flick in 1990 with the same title. Funny cos i "broke bounds" i.e snuck outta school, military school for that matter (AFMS) to go to kwararafa cinema in Jos.

Saw dis on Linda Ikeji and it brought back memories of my childhood. If u were born in the 80's or before, you will surely remember this famous Indian Bollywood movie YEH VADA RAHA a.k.a SUNITA & VICKRAM. I watched the movie in 1990 and it was a hit in Nigeria back then!!! Phew!!! How time flies!!!!!


Yeh Vaada Raha - (The Promise) is arguably one
of the most popular Indian films ever made - at
least it was very popular in Nigeria. If you didn't
watch it, then you weren't born in the 80's. The
main protagonists in the classic Hindi film
released in 1982 were Sunita and Vikram,
pictured left from a scene from the movie. That's
the actors together recently on the right. Rishi
Kapoor is now 62 years old and Poonam Dhillon
is 53 years old. And they are still actively acting.
Good to see them again!

http://pulse.ng/music/pulse-super-exclusive-real-reason-why-emma-nyra-left-triplemg-id3636988.html

Dis is an interesting revelation by an inside Source in the Label.... Saw the story on Pulse Ng.


Pulse broke the story yesterday of Emma Nyra’s
exit from Made Men Music Group, home to
Iyanya, Baci, Tekno, Selebobo , and DJ Coublon ,
with executive responsibility shouldered by Ubi
Franklin .

According to our findings, Emma left the record
label after over 3 three years of engagement,
relocating back to the USA, where she schooled.
According to our sources, her decision to quit
was fostered by personal issues with Ubi
Franklin, and what many do not know is the true
reason why she left.
Pulse conducted a thorough investigation
through her stay within the record label, and we
have documented that below.

The Sweet Beginning

Emma Nyra (real name Emma Chukwugoziam
Obi) is a Nigerian singer and songwriter.
Nyra was born on July 18, 1988, in California
and raised in Texas. Her father is a pharmacist
and her mother has had a home health practice.
When Emma Nyra was six years old, she already
liked to sing and wanted to become a singer.
She pursued a Bachelor of Science Degree in
Health Administration at the Texas Southern
University in Houston, Texas, to please her
parents and only then Nyra insisted on relocating
to Nigeria.

In 2010, Emma Nyra met her manager, Ubi
Franklin, during one of her Christmas visits to
Nigeria.
In 2011, Ubi Franklin was working with Iyanya,
who was just beginning to experience his first
taste of success through the hit single ‘ Kukere ’.
Iyanya later went on to cement his success with
hit singles, ‘ Flavour’, ‘Sexy Mama’, ‘Jombolo ’
and ‘ Ur Waist ’ from his sophomore album
' Iyanya VS Desire'.

With fame came money for Iyanya and also Ubi
Franklin, who close friends say had fallen deep in
love with Emma Nyra.
Emma, was immediately signed to the newly
created MMMG label and had her first feature on
Iyanya’s hit single ‘ Ur Waist ’. Sources however
tell Pulse that the single had controversy in its
creation; as Emma Nyra vocals were originally
written and voiced by someone else.
Sources says the chorus and original vocals
were rendered photographer-turned-singer, Toni
Tones but was replaced by Emma Nyra without a
notice. The song was released in July 2012, and
quickly became a hit, with Emma Nyra starring in
it, and scoring her first flirt with popularity. ‘Ur
Waist’ was nominated for ‘Best Pop Single’ and
‘Song of the Year’ at The Headies 2013 » . To
this day, ‘Ur Waist’ is seen in some quarters as
Emma’s best contribution to music in Nigeria.

Signing To Made Men Music Group

With the financial rewards gotten by Iyanya’s
music, and deals struck by Ubi Franklin, Ubi now
focused on breaking Emma Nyra into the
Nigerian music scene just as he had done with
Iyanya.
In 2012, Nyra came to Lagos after her manager
helped to convince her parents to allow her
relocate in search of a thriving music career.
Industry insiders say Iyanya was however not in
support of the move.

" He had just began to reap financial rewards and
did not want to channel his funds to promoting
another artiste", one source told Pulse.
Once in Nigeria, work was put into her career
with massive funding channelled by Ubi Franklin
into her career. High budget videos were shot for
her. The first of which is ‘ Ori Mi Wu ’, directed by
Moe Musa . The song was released in July 2012,
with the video released in January 2013.
In 2013, Emma Nyra released three high budget
videos; ‘ Ori Mi Wu ’ (January), ‘ Everything I Do’
featuring Iyanya (March), ‘ Kere Shere ’ (October).
Also in 2013, Iyanya and Emma Nyra set out on
US/Canada tour to promote Iyanya’s sophomore
album, which contained the collaboration, ‘Ur
Waist’. The tour packaged by Big A
Entertainment is regarded as one of the most
successful US tours by a Nigerian.

Problems, Problems, Problems

With all of these happening for her, Emma Nyra
unfortunately failed to excite a huge number of
Nigerian fans. The success gained by Tiwa
Savage, Omawumi and Waje , eluded Emma Nyra,
and so frustration set in. Which made her begin
to search for other options.

Emma’s frustration with the state of her career
which had failed to skyrocket, made her try out
different options. Emma was still in a relationship
with Ubi Franklin, but the rumour mill went viral,
as unconfirmed sources began to bear stories of
a fling with Chocolate City’s Ice Prince , and
Mavin Records, D’Prince .

Reports have it that Ubi Franklin had once or
twice physically assaulted Emma Nyra. This is
however unconfirmed as both parties have
distanced themselves from such rumours.
The lowest point of their relationship was
reached in December 2013, when Emma gave an
interview to Channels TV, stating that she had
left the label.

“The label, yeah, we are no longer together,
nothing happened, I just didn’t renew my
contract.” Emma Nyra disclosed.
Emma also harboured plans to start a movement
for emerging female artistes, a movement she
dubbed, the ‘ Girl Power Movement ’.
With the news in the open, Emma opened talks
with various industry players, expecting people to
rally behind her, and support her movement.
That support never came, and frustrated further,
she relocated back home to Texas, and began a
new phase of planning.

Ubi Franklin made the move for reconciliation,
which was accepted, and she was brought into
the fold, moving back to Nigeria in 2014, to join
the creation of the present MMMG label roaster.
Tekno had earlier been signed in October 2013,
Selebobo was signed in March 2014, Baci had
been a regular with Iyanya, having made his
bones as a creative force behind-the-scenes,
and in public as a backup singer to Iyanya.
With Emma Nyra’s return in 2014, Triple MG set
to work on their compilation debut album, with a
massive promotional campaign masterminded by
Ubi. Emma released the solo single, ‘Amigo’.
The debut album entitled ‘ Evolution ’ was
successfully released in May 2014. Emma
Nyra’s solo single was well-received, but it
wasn’t well promoted, and didn’t get a video to
go with it.

Pseudo – Renaissance

In April 2014, Emma Nyra released a song with
Davido titled ‘ Elele ’. The song received good
airplay and a video was released in September
2014.
A follow single was released in late 2014 - the
Dancehall single ‘ For My Matter’. A video was
also released in December 2014.

More Problems

In November 2014, Beat FM OAP Fade Ogunro ,
took to Instagram to allegedly vent at Ubi’s
behaviour (albeit, without directly pointing
fingers), insinuating he was still physically
abusing Emma Nyra.

She said:

Dear CEO,
I have learnt that In life, people will try
and lie about you, bring you down, those
that hurt you most are the ones that
disguise themselves as friends. There’s
one particular person in the industry that
tries everyday to infiltrate my life and
break up my relationship. Jesus will
always stop you from hurting me
emotionally, physically, mentally. When
Jesus says yes, no man can say no!
Meanwhile this person stays beating up
girls, he stays smacking the girl that is
signed to his label, they pretend they are
in a loving relationship. Nope, she cheats,
he beats her. She has never admitted that
she is your girlfriend, she is clearly
embarrassed by you. #DumbAss.
Same nigga wants to lie about me, why
you so extra? Stay outta my life, reality is
im in love and he hates that. Anyone who
is any type of happy he wants to bring
them down. Go focus on your sad
negative life. No matter what, God has
blessed me, deal with it. I have a wealthy
heart and I’m cute. You just mad that the
only girls you can get are my mans
leftovers from 5 years ago. You ugly, you
heart is ugly, your intentions are ugly.
You will end up lonely and still ugly. FOH!
The world will see you for who you really
are! #HaterAlert
Sincerely,
The girl who has been in a loving 2 year
relationship.
That story put the heat on Ubi Franklin, but he
remained quiet, refusing to respond to the
allegations.

The Last Straw

Ubi Franklin’s engagement to Nollywood actress,
Lilian Esoro caught many by surprise. On March
19, 2014, Lilian Esoro finally it the cat out of the
bag that she had agreed to get married to Ubi
Franklin.
This sparked quite an uproar on social media,
with a lot of people sharing polarized opinions
about the new development. Emma Nyra didn’t
join the others in congratulating the couple. She
was at the time attending the 2015 SXSW event
in Austin, Texas. She is currently still in Houston.
Emma Nyra finally left Made Men Music Group
(Triple MG) and possibly Nigeria after over 3
years with the label.

According to reliable sources within the recording
house, the singer quit the record label due to
personal issues with her boss, Ubi Franklin .
“Emma has left their record label. She not only
left, she has relocated back to the USA where
she came from. Emma left due to personal
reasons with Ubi Franklin”, a source told Pulse.
Emma Nyra has been promoting herself
singlehandedly since the beginning of March
2015. She has also refused to pick up calls or
respond to messages from her (ex)label mates
and managers.

"Emma Nyra is not picking her calls, neither is
she in communication with any of her friends and
colleagues." the source further revealed.
Her booking e-mail which used to read
bookemmanyra@gmail.com has now been
changed to her personal email,
emmanyra@gmail.com and she has been in the
U.S for more than 4 weeks.

Also, her erstwhile title, “ First Lady Triple MG ” is
gone. She now describes herself as “International
Recording Artiste, Nigerian Entertainment Award
Winner ” and her booking phone number has been
changed to an US number.

The rest of the TripleMG crew have been carrying
about their duties, with no mention of her.
Iyanya, Tekno, Selebobo, and Baci, have
recorded songs with DJ Coublon , and Mystro,
with a video shoot already done without the
diva. Triple MG will be releasing a new song
titled ‘Yudala’, in the coming weeks.

Saw dis on a blog


The price of fame they say, is very expensive.
This fact has been bitterly found out by virtually
all celebrities.
This discussion is really one that instigates a
whole lot of divided opinions. Events that have
occurred over the years and still happening, and
in fact doesn’t seem like it’s going to stop, is the
highly intriguing microscopic view of celebrities or
public figures as the case may be, by fans and
observers.

It must be killing and draining for these public
figures having to deal with all sorts of unsavoury
tirades directed at them, at times for no just
reason, on a daily basis.They’re human, they
deserve the right to freedom as the next man on
the street.

Their superstar status/fame brings them under
much scrutiny though,as they are role models in
some capacity.
Celebrities as role models can’t be denied, so it’s
only natural that a specific act, utterance can go
a long way in how they’re perceived by the
public.
The fans in a way feel they enrich these celebs by
spending their hard earned money to embrace
their works, while the celebs in return feel they
don’t owe any fan/stranger any explanation as to
what they do with their lives.

Many’s the time these celebrities show and voice
their displeasure at the way they are viewed,
scrutinized or judged by the public. In fact, they
get so obsessed with any negativity directed in
their way that it becomes some sort of paranoia
as they label these observers as the so-much-
thrown-around word, “hater”.
Which brings about the question, do these
celebrities actually know what they’re getting
themselves into by craving fame and by putting
themselves in public glare?….Let’s try and weigh
in from different perspectives.

Fame and wealth automatically breeds envy, as
some low-life tries to make him/herself feel better
by demeaning the achievements or
accomplishments of others. We also all know
how negativity thrives in our society and generate
uproar as opposed to positivity, so it is of little
surprise the length some can go. But then, the
aspiring celebrities should have been prepared for
the toughest of times, as every step or action
taken is seen, interpreted and judged by the keen
public, even if it is inaccurate and unfair at times.
Just recently, superstar songstress Waje had to
snap back at a ‘fan’ on her instagram page who
made demeaning comment to her picture post of
16years old daughter, Emerald. Timi Dakolo also
got a bitter taste of the cookie as he got clowned
on supposedly having ‘brown’ teeth in the
comment section of his picture post on
instagram. Mavin Records songstress, Di’ja had
also in the past week had to deal with an abusive
fan who accused her of being proud and arrogant
as he alleged she ignores her fans on social
media. Popular nollywood actress Omotola
Jalade also had to defend and put fans in their
place after spiteful comments was directed at her
young daughter….and several other attacks on
celebs that are too many to mention.
You then have to think, do these celebrities
deserve some of the outrageous abuse they get
on a daily basis?

I mean, it’s their instagram page, it’s their
facebook page, and it’s also their twitter TL,
where they can share their thoughts and opinions
just as any other user, if you have nothing
positive or pleasant to say to them why not just
jog on…They are bound to make mistakes like
every regular creature of God and they’ll never be
perfect.
It’s even more hilarious when these celebs get
followed by ‘fans’ who don’t actually like them.
It’s like these ‘fans’ follow these popular figures
just to troll them with abuses….that to me is
‘hating’.

Then again, should these celebrities not ignore
unruly or disrespectful fans?
Interestingly though, some of these celebrities
know how to dish it right back, the no-nonsense
ones put erring fans in their places e.g Omotola,
Waje. Some go about it in more mature, subtle,
knock-yourself-out type of way e.g Di’Ja, Don
Jazzy , Banky W, while some ignore totally as they
have developed a thick skin and are already
immune to these detractors.
Some or majority of these celebrities on the other
hand, enjoy the attention, as they attract these
spiteful comments by trying to be as
controversial as possible, sometimes mainly on
purpose, as it serves as a means to being
relevant.

Take the likes of immensely talented Asa , Tuface ,
Sound Sultan , Banky W, extremely gifted producer
Cobhams Asuquo and a couple of respectable
others, it can be observed that the despise
towards these group of celebrities is on a minimal
level compared to others. We can only think it is
highly due to the quality of materials they put
out, and their high moral standards in doing so.
Whereas on the other side of the fence are the
likes of Davido, Wizkid , Skales who sometimes
act out of control mainly due to youthful
exuberance.

Conversely though, most of these artistes/
celebrities take offence in an appalling and overly
sensitive way to any constructive criticism
directed at their works or projects. They release
materials and expect every Tom, Dick and Harry
to lap it up irrespective of perceived flaws…just
because. Yes it’s your work, you have put in a lot
of effort, you feel it’s the best you can offer and
you probably feel if some set of fans are not
satisfied, then they should ignore.

Well, what then happens when almost the whole
of your fanbase are dissatisfied with the quality
of your project and they choose to ignore, this
would automatically translate to some sort of
irrelevancy or disregard on your part in a highly
competitive entertainment industry.
Everyone can almost make his/her own list in two
different categories of celebrities with highly
respectable values and those who parade as
simply industry puppets.

We implore our celebrities to be the best possible
they can, and represent the values their ardent
fans can truly be proud of, while we encourage
fans to be more accommodating and appreciative
of these public figures as they are also prone to
mistakes. They also deserve their right to varying
opinions.

Finally, for artistes who refer to critics as ‘haters’,
well deal with it or STOP putting out horrendous
materials….GO HARD OR GO HOME!

Saw dis on Vanguard

She began her journey into the world of
entertainment after she won the Miss Face of
Detlta State University, as an undergraduate. She
went on to emerge second runner-up in the Most
Beautiful Girl in Nigeria (MBGN) in 1999.
But following the passion she has for acting,
Grace Edwin-Okon delved into acting, as she
featured in many films and soap operas such as
Tears in Heaven, Extreme Measures, My Dream,
Prodigal Brother and Doctors’ Quarters, before
disappearing into thin air. In this encounter, Grace
explains why she disappeared from the screen.
She also talks about her marriage and the movie
industry.

YOU have been away for a long time, did your
husband stop you from acting?

Interestingly, that was not the case. My husband
is actually very supportive. He likes me as an
actress but I was the one who needed to do a lot
more with myself. I have pushed myself all the
way as a beauty queen to acting, script writing
and producing.
Now, I am an author because I just published a
book. I strive to break new ground. My new films
would soon be released into the market .
I’m hitting the screen again. But this time around,
I may not be as active as I used to be in the
past. I decided to take a break after featuring in a
couple of films because I getting scripts I didn’t
like.
Getting scripts
One of my friends later encouraged me to go into
film production. That was when I wrote a script
that took me almost three years to package. The
film is yet to be released into the market, but I
have released other films since then.
How do you feel disappearing from the screen?
The surprising thing is that years have gone by
since I disappeared from the screen. But people
still recognize me everywhere I go. I think my face
has not changed in such a way that my fans still
make me feel special. I hope to stage a comeback
with my own films and I promise not to
disappoint my fans.

Would you say marriage made you to dump
acting?

On the contrary, my husband wants me to return
to acting. I took the decision myself to take a
break from acting. I needed to learn the ropes
properly, because film making is not a child’s
play. I had to go and learn the art of film making
because as a person, if I do not understand the
concept of something, I would rather not venture
into it. Marriage is not responsible for my
disappearance from the screen.

What connection do you have with modelling?

I used to be a model while I was an
undergraduate at Delta State University. I
emerged the Campus Queen then, and later,
second runner-up at MBGN in 1999.
Does it mean that you started your career as a
model?
Yes, I started as a model and later ventured into
acting.

What was it like being a beauty queen?

Well, it was an experience on its own. One of the
things I learnt as a beauty queen was confidence.
No matter the situation I find myself in, I’m never
get scared of anything or anybody. Most people
do not realize that pageantry goes beyond ladies
parading in under-wears. But is also, a grooming
hub for young ladies.
It teaches etiquette and confidence and makes
you believe that you can go anywhere, stand on
your own as a strong woman. Pageantry for me
was a bedrock and a stepping stone, a launching
pad to raise my standards to greater things. My
first film entitled “Heavy Beauty” is a pageant
film. I put all my experience as a beauty queen
into writing the script. I have actually produced
two similar films which will be released before the
end of this year.

Why did you dump modelling for acting?

Honestly, film making is very intellectual. While I
was into modelling at the time, I realized it was
not as mentally challenging as it is today. The
terrain has changed. When I discovered that
script writing was something that required a lot
of work, I put in my best into it and today, I have
written well over 10 scripts, and already, six of
them have been produced into films.
As a producer, people such as Emem Isong
influenced my decision to go into film production.
I had the feeling that I could also be a part of the
change, or the improvement of the Nollywood
industry.

Did you set out to become a model or an
actress?

Interestingly yes. A lot of people would call it
‘cliche’ but for me, it was not so. Right from
childhood, my family members and friends used
to call me ‘’Fulani’ (even though I am not from
the North) because of the kind of features I
possessed. Any time I sustain an injury, my
mother would tell me, “ you have injured yourself
now, and you would not be Miss Nigeria again.”
That dream stuck into me because she liked
pageantry a lot. I had an Aunty, Joy Nwariso who
was once Miss UNIPORT and she used to tell me
that I could also go for pageants. All of these
contributed to my decision to go into modelling.
From childhood, I have always liked the television,
and I can vividly recall a lot of old programmes
because I watched them with keen interest. I
knew I wanted to become an actress. I can say
now that fate directed my steps.

How did you feel the first time you were on set?

I remember it was a Zeb Ejiro film. At that time,
AY, the comedian, used to be my manager and
his girlfriend who once represented Nigeria at the
Miss World pageant went for an audition and
asked me to escort her. When it was time for her
reading, they needed someone to read with her
and I did.
It occurred to them that I was good also and that
became my first time ever to see or even read a
script.I had no former knowledge whatsoever but
I got the role and it happened to be a lead role.
My first experience on set was a learning process
for me and an exciting experience because I
studied English in school and was not quite sure
what I wanted to do with my life after.

Have you had any ugly experience in marriage,
given the rate at which celebrity marriages are
crashing in Nigeria?

I have been married for nine years now and I am
still in it. Day by day, we encounter obstacles but
we cross it and get to know each other better. My
career would have been a challenge because it
was an expensive one. But my husband saw how
determined and focused I was and he decided to
support me by giving me the money to shoot my
first movie.

Uti Nwachukwu wish he could stay off s*x till he
finds the right woman to settle down with, but
he is afraid, the task is too much for him to
carry. While speaking with a vanguard reporter,
Uti says he gave his life to Christ in 2006, but
admits he is still an imperfect person, despite
being born again.“Of course, I am born again, I
found Christ in 2006, I have always believed in
Christ. But I must tell you I am not still perfect,
he told the reporter.

“Being born again, means accepting Christ as
your Lord and personal saviour. He didn’t come
to the world for the righteous, Christ came for
the imperfect ones like me and you.
I genuinely want to change, Christ is right there
soliciting and interceding for me, because he is
the way, the truth and the life. People fail to see
that it is we, the imperfect, that Christ came
for. I am extremely imperfect.

I am not the stereotypical type of born again, I
am the type that is aware of the love and grace”
he explained.When asked what he meant by
being imperfect, he said; “Personally, I would
not want to have sex before marriage but
sometimes you fall and when you fall, you
repent and beg God for forgiveness; it’s not
easy.

@ OP, i disagree with you. I bought my Techno Phantom A in June 2013 and used it till February 2015 cos i bought a new phone and have to give it to my niece. The phone didn't give me any problem throughout the 21 months i used it. and my niece is still rocking the phone without any problem.

So OP, i dunno why u people like talking down on the so called China phones without using them. Not everyone can afford a Samsung Galaxy or iPhone. Cut ur cloth according to your size. Don't buy phones to impress people so far u are getting what u want from the phone. Mind u, infinix is a French company dat have base in China, likewise Samsung and Apple.

I now use Infinix Zero and it gives me everything i want in a phone. I Google every phone before buying.

There’s a campaign going viral online now and it
doesn’t look good for Nigerian musicians. The
campaign tagged #WeNoBeMumuForArtists is a
protest by the association of Nigerian Music
Promoters in the United States of America who
all came together to form a body to fight against
what they tag as over-priced Nigerian acts.
For them, the music acts offer little or nothing in
return for their exorbitant fees they charge and
according to reports, in the last 2 years, A-list
fees for several acts have gone from $5,000 to
over $40,000 and with little or no sponsorship,
these promoters find themselves constantly
running at a loss. For this reason, they’ve
decided to take a stand and boycott any Nigerian
artist who quotes an exorbitant fee.
The official statement issued by the group
reads…
‘Over the years, it’s been enthusiastic priority for
Nigerian promoters based in the USA and in the
“Diaspora” generally to improve, expand and
promote Nigerian (African) music to the best of
our ability and we have worked very hard over
the years. From mixing to producing to waiting
outside radio station’ studios for countless hours
BECAUSE WE WANTED TO ENTERTAIN FANS OF
THE MUSIC as well as get our wonderful music
(AFROBEAT) noticed and enjoyed by the world.
‘We are based in the USA where it’s a third of
the price to book a local talent (and by local we
also mean internationally known, mainstream
artists) than it is the prices being pitched to us
by Artists’ Managers and publicists and ex high
school buddies and side chicks and present
girlfriends and “Outlaws” aka wannabe promoters
who throw “good” money at these artists and get
them to commit to events that they (AND BY
THEY WE MEAN THE ARTIST AND THE
WANNABE BOTH) have no idea about.
‘We would also ask and prefer that our artists
concentrate more on improving their acts or
performances for their fans cause that’s really
what this is all about. We didn’t become
professionals and promote Afrobeat and put
together great international events to get these
artists to where they are only to be bamboozled
by a wannabe or a greedy manager or an artist
who just looks at us (and the fact that we live
abroad) as mugus!’

Saw dis online.....


Africa Magic, the continent’s leading
provider of African entertainment
content, has announced the launch of a
new channel, Africa Magic Igbo.
Designed to showcase the rich Igbo
culture of Nigeria, the 24 hour general
entertainment channel follows the
success of the Africa Magic Hausa and
Yoruba channels and will go on air at
19:00 CAT on the 2nd of April, 2015 on
DStv channel 159. The launch of Africa
Magic Igbo, which brings to eight the
total number of Africa Magic channels,
follows the redefinition of the Africa
Magic channels in 2014 and the recent
refreshing of the Africa Magic Urban
channel. Speaking on the launch, the
Director, M-Net (West Africa), Wangi
Mba-Uzoukwu, said: “We are thrilled to
announce the launch of Africa Magic
Igbo. Igbo language entertainment
content has always played a prominent
role in the Nigerian film and television in
dustry and we are glad to offer a plat­
form where this rich content can be
showcased to the rest of Africa and the
world. Popular Igbo language content
like Living in Bondage, Nneka the Pretty
Serpent and many others set the trend
for the modern Nigerian film and
television industry, or Nollywood as it’s
called; it is thus only fitting that such
content should be given a platform
where it is easily accessible by
audiences around the continent.
