When did You become a woman? Dolemite:Cool! Rate the actresses. Kunbee:Likewise . . . . She's good. I wonder where they all went. |
Please, Laho, Biko and [Insert the Yoruba version here], Let no one deceive You into thinking Love covers everything. Covers werrin? Leave matter Jo. You have a right to plain about a short and poor boyfriend. Place Your criterion as high as You want . . . .Just have something of equal value to give in return, that's all. |
On a scale of 1-10 Regina Askia - 7 Hilda Dokubo - 8 Liz Benson - 8 Sandra Achums - 6 Victoria Inyama - 7 |
•What they were and where they are Long before them, we had Funmilayo Ranco, Ogunde’s wives and the likes, but the emergence of the Nigerian movie industry otherwise known as Nollywood ushered in this new set of actresses who ruled the screen, sold millions of movies with their acts and got us all glued to the TV screen. They were the stars long before the Omotolas and Genevieves of Nigeria. Some of them have continued to feature in movies since with present days stars and some simply stepped aside. Others took to other interests. Here is Sunday Sun’s 10 Nollywood actresses of yester years. Barbara Soky In her days, Barbara was like Omotola and Genevieve rolled into one. She was young, hot, savvy, and had an aura which made her the toast of viewers. She dined with the rich and famous and was always in gossip columns. She started acting in the ‘80s after getting a role in Inside Out and went on to team up with Lola Fani- Kayode in Mirror in the Sun and then much later Zeb Ejiro’s Ripples. Her acting was not the only thing making headlines. Her relationship with Danladi Bako, her daughter Maxine were also subjects of news. She took a break when fame became a burden for several years and sought the limelight again in early 2000 with Amaka Igwe’s Solitaire but by then, her magnetic aura had vanished and the new generation knew no Barbie, the new stars were the in-thing. Liz Benson She could best be described as the altar ego of Regina Askia and until they both bowed out of the ambience of stardom , their rivalry was on the front burner of news. Liz Benson made us look forward to movies and her face sold millions of movies. The 44 years old Liz started acting in 1993 featuring in Fortunes and remained the postal girl for many years before stepping aside to answer God’s calling into the vineyard. Yeah, you read it right, Liz Benson is now a pastor based in Port Harcourt. She remarried last year after being a widow for several years. For years to come, those old enough will still continue to talk about her role in Glamour Girls, True Confession and Izaga. Regina Askia Regina had many things working for her and the world was practically at her feet. She was beautiful, suave, and brainy. With a degree from University of Lagos (UNILAG) and her crown as Miss UNILAG, Askia had her path charted for her before graduation. She was meant for the showbiz world and that was where she headed. After emerging Miss Nigeria in 1989 (following the resignation of Bianca Onoh, the then queen) Askia followed-up with a role in Mega Fortunes and was the lead act in several movies. She left the world of showbiz and went to America in the early 2000s and settled with her husband, Radolph Rudy Williams and had since given birth to two children. She is currently a practicing nurse in America. Sandra Achums Call her the movie bad girl and you won’t be wrong. Sandra had her cup of fun filled to the brim and never give a hoot about what you thought. She was the leader of Team B after the likes of Liz Benson and Regina Askia. Once married, Sandra made the soft sell thrive in her days because many wanted to know what was happening in the life of their star who was set to take over from Liz and Regina. It never happened because Sandra relocated to Germany where she now resides and is raising a family with her husband. Victoria Inyama Not particularly the best when it comes to acting, Victoria Inyama made up for it with hard work and off the stage gossips for celebrity writers. She was the alternative for Sandra Achums and sometimes held her own like in Rejected Son. She never made the A-list but she made a lasting impression. She left Nigeria in early 2000 for UK where she now resides with her husband. Hilda Dokubo Hilda did not travel out . She isn’t ill , but she just seems tired of Nollywood. She was one of the front runners in the early days of Nollywood, with stellar performance in Evil Passion, Total Desire, and Goodbye Tomorrow and others. Hilda warmed her way into the hearts of many and she has made an enduring impression. She left the scene to take up activism and an unspecified contract job with Rivers State government. Hilda was one of those that made the industry tick but she now prefers life outside the limelight where there is more peace and perhaps more money. Omoladun Kenkelewu She was Baba Suwe’s wife and made many laugh with her sharp humour. In her days, no movie was complete without Omoladun’s face adoring the jacket. Her best came to the fore when she acted alongside her husband. She died last year from a complication arising from high blood pressure. Ameze Imariagbe Many still believe that Ameze should not have left the scene when she did because that was when her star was just blossoming. She left in the ‘90s when her career was just taking off. She later granted an interview saying she had other priorities in her life. Now residing in Europe, pretty Ameze was known then as the teary Ameze because she cried so easily in movies. Ego Boyo From Checkmate, Violated to Keeping Fate, Ego Boyo rocked our world. She was the fine girl with sexy eyes that made most husbands receive knocks from their wives whenever she is on TV. Her performance was so timeless that we thought she would be on forever but Ego had other thoughts. She wanted a world where she would be the one to call the shots. She is doing that right now with Temple Production , the production company that has been doing great producing movies, documentaries and commercials for corporate bodies. Funmi Martins Funmi Martins was the rave of the Yoruba genre of the movie industry. Without her , your movies might flop in the market. With her, you are sure of a sell-out as Funmi acted so well that she became a standard for good acting. She died in the late 90s but her daughter Made had since taken over from where she stopped.

He spoke to OLUWOLE ADEBOYE after his arrest. Q: You were once a Supernumerary Police Corporal. How long were you at this job? A: I was at the job for 10 years. Later, I was sacked and told to go away. Q: What was your offence? A: It’s personal, not for your own consumption. Q: How long have you been parading yourself as a police inspector ? A: Just three years ago. Q: Why? A: Because I want to make money, of course. Q: What do you mean? A: What most people do not know is that as a policeman, it is easier to make quick money. Q: Can you tell us how to make money? A: There are many different ways one can implicate innocent souls. As for me, I put on the uniform to smuggle goods through the border in Ogun State and I also use the uniform to defraud people. It does not pay when you tell the truth. Q: But do you believe that if you tell the truth always, one day fortune will smile on you and you will become great? A: I can’t wait for that day.

I dunno why, but I dislike that M.I dude. So short!!! |

akwaowoudo:Apology accepted! ![]() |
akwaowoudo:Ssssh!!! You misconstrued ma post. |
Rocktation: Gbam!!! |
Carolece: Carolece:**Sighs** How much effect the enviroment has on us!!! |
IyaBasira:I'D like to connect this post with Your original post, by saying, someone can Love You and still cheat on You, hurt You or leave You. It boils down to what I talked about in the first part of ma former post on this thread - Actions and Motive. I just Love to understand why people do certain things. It's not always about what they do, but also about Why - For me. I think cheating is a weakness/flaw. Inability to handle responsibility or be satisfied and stick with what You have, Plus, lack of courage to leave a particular person [if You think You aren't coping] before bringing another person in. IyaBasira:If what You mean by ''help him'' is change him . . . . Girlfriend, forget it. No one can change anyone . . . .Change comes from within. |
I have come to understand the negative and selfish side of man, that almost nothing , shocks me anymore. Carolece:Talk about it. Hear her side of the story and probably, his too. This will help You understand the whole issue, from genesis to the end. If I were You, I'D love to know why she did it. Are they still together? |
Trivially, I must say, I understand exactly what Your point is. I've had personal reasons- which I cannot even begin to spew on a public forum- to ponder on this issue. My last decision was to, first, understand the difference between actions and motives. Since then, I've learnt to deal with the motive behind people's action and not the action itself. To be honest, it has helped me alot - anatha discussion. IyaBasira:Conditions/rules that should be kicked in the drain. Most times, it's people who haven't gotten into the room that try to deafen others with these 'rules'. When it comes to ''Love'', there are no laid down rules. . . .In fact, I'm of the opinion that, there are no fixed rules to any action - either as to its incitation or original intent. I'll exemplify, what I mean by that proposition . . . ''Assuming there are 100 people on earth, and 70 have cried when hurt. 30 have never cried, therefore, they've never been hurt . . . .In short, if You're hurt, You must cry''. False!!! I'll exemplify again, this time, as to intent . . . . ''If you hurt someone, it's because you hate them . . . . because it's not rational that You would hurt someone you care about. John says Mary hurt him, therefore Mary hates John''. Unless Mary verifies this conclusion, One can boldly say, it's false. For, Mary could have hurt John for his benefit [unknowingly to him] and not as a result of hate. IyaBasira:I concur!!! I opine that, human is incapable to Love, as supposed. We can't even love ourselves perfectly. Also, There's nothing like true or fake love. Love is love . . . . It's either love or not. Only God can love, and how he does that, I know not. What man feels, and calls 'Love', I can't explain. Iice made a comment on a thread, that made me reflect. . . . . I quote iice:So much truth in this comment. IyaBasira:You're on point. |
Una too deh huff and puff on Nland Jare. . . .Take a glass of Chilled Uju-Juice. |
[s]I can't remember distinctly, on what occasion, I had sum'n' to do with this User.[/s] ![]() I'm fine and I've been very much around, thanks! You aiight? |
