TV/Movies / About New Nigerian Movie "7 Queer Stories" Season 1 by mailmiyes(f): 9:04pm On Feb 08, 2023
"7 queer stories" movie review: My personal Review on 7 Queer Stories Season 1:

So if there is anything to do this holidays, I guess you might want to be open minded and watch something weird. I got the chance to watch a queer series titled “7 Queer Stories”. This series is a queer anthology series. I guess it is first of its kind cos I haven’t seen any like it. It was directed by Enogwe Chidiebere, seen a couple of his movies and I love his directing. The EP of the series, Feibai Lokoson did a good job with his crew. Angel, Patience, Emmanuel. They are all great people to work with.
Story centers around the LGBT community in Nigeria. I think this is one of first LGBT SERIES ever made in Nigeria. The ones I have been coming across are mainly movies.
For content, I give them a 9/10. It’s not easy making such movie in a homophobic country like Nigeria where they actually can imprison someone for being queer. My personal ratings on this movie is 6/10. This includes storyline and all. Reason why is because some actors didn’t do justice to their roles. I found out that majority of the actors are straight; allegedly. They should have worked with queer actors if they wanted to kill the role. In some parts where they were supposed to show emotions, they couldn’t, or the part where they were supposed to kiss, they didn’t. The gay slangs used by gay people was not well used also. However, the script writer, Gabriel did a fantastic job on the story line. I loved it. For story line, I ‘ll say 7/10
7 Queer Stories has 7 stories in the series which are Confessions, Corper wee, Victims, Snide, Aberration, Stalker and Exposing Kitos.
Without giving too much information, let me tell you guys a bit about each of them.

Confessions, the first one spoke about a down-low secretive catholic priest who molests young boys in his church and hides his secret by eliminating them. You need to go watch to find out what I mean by eliminating.

The second one; Corper wee is about 2 straight Christian men who fall in love because they found themselves trapped in an environment for a year that prevented them from associating with women because the women are Muslim women. This storyline was one of my best.

The third one is Victims. Also talks about a straight boy that had to become queer because he needed to survive and help his mother.

The fourth one, Snide. This didn’t really focus on a gay story line. I don’t know if the director did this on purpose so straight viewers can breathe small. However, this was a story about a lady that got kidnapped. It was rather plain, common and uninteresting in my opinion.

The fifth one, Aberration. This showcased a story about what someone might do if he invited a total stranger over to his house and that stranger dies suddenly after having sex.

The sixth story is stalker. The name speaks for itself. I didn’t like this too much also. It felt unrealistic. I don’t know how gay people operate but I don’t believe someone can be a stalker like that.

The last one; exposing kitos, this was also one of my best storylines and I loved the title. I have heard of a group in Nigeria that uses its platform to expose people who harm gay people. Was refreshing to see this in a movie.

So like I said earlier, over all, it was an above average movie. The production company, Funfor10k did a great job. Kudos to everyone involved. If you would like to go see the movie, google it or watch on febztv.

Steve who has been in touch with this chick for some time now decide to take a very long and adventures trip to the city of Kano to see the girl he fell in love with ONLINE. And somehow in his magnanimity Steve deiced to share the experience and excitement of his jolly ride to Kano for all to see.

Ask77:
By Abdulwasiu Hassan

Insurgent group, Jama'atu AhlisSunnah Lidda'awati Waljahad, popularly known as Boko Haram has launched a new Public Relation campaign via twitter meant to win people over to its side.

The twitter handle,Alurwa Alwuthqa, which claim to be the mouthpiece of the group, announced the sect's capture of Monguno while also showing pictures of child soldiers in training.

The account communicating in Arabic which started twitting on the 18th of January with a message about Baga attack has over 3,000 followers.

Though there is no video of the group's leader Abubakar Shekau on the account, there is a video of an interview with one Abu Mus'ab Albarnawi who is said to be the spokesman of the group.

Both the interviewer and interviewee in the video had their faces blurred.

The Nigerian Defence Headquarters has not issued any comment on the twitter account and its content as at the time of filing this report.

Adelaide2:
Given the recent accusation and counter-accusation between these above-named individuals, I wanted us to have some fun comparing them.

So folks let's set the ball rolling:

Between Charles and Ngozi who is more accomplished, personally, academically and professionally?
Both are economists
Both have PhDs, one was from Nsukka (local champion, like all Naija unis), the other from Harvard (almighty, world over)
Both have been in govt in Nigeria, one as CBN Gov and the other as Minister (several times)
Both have worked in the international sphere, one as Consultant, the other as MD of the World Bank
One is female, the other is male (obvious, duh!!)
Both have children, but what are the statuses of their different kinds?
Both are married (one to a popular US Neurosurgeon, the other to who?)
Both are Igbo, one from Anambra, the other from Delta (but now Abia by marriage)

What do you think of them? If these two giants served together under one govt (Obasanjo's) and yet could not find common grounds, who else can?

I am just wondering what Obasanjo would be thinking about them now. They were among his most beloved hires back then.
