Niorte:
Prof sir, you may have to go for refresher's course except you are being economical with the truth.

Lol. A Nobel laureate? He will comfortably lecture you and your generation yet unborn.

By the way, go and listen to the full clip rather than the yeye excerpts Reno posted for you wailers.

Afamed:
They said travelling is part of experience. If any of the Mugus above has travelled to know more about other people ways of lives and cultures. All of you above wouldn't be talking rubbish. In the core Northern states, a grown up man does not share the same chairs/ seats with the same grown women in the public . Just like a man does not remain standing while either talking with someone old enough to be either his Mum or dad.

Most nairalanders are annoyingly dull.

The bigwigs are already seeing the clear handwriting on the wall. But trust our brothers with the least votes to keep on supporting an international fugitive cum loser

Lionheart isn’t just another Nigerian movie. It’s Genevieve Nnaji’s beautiful answer to Nollywood’s attempt to break into today’s globalized movie industry. And who else can do it better if not Nollywood’s own Angelina Jolie?

If you haven’t seen the movie yet, here are 10 reasons why Lionheart is a must-watch.

1. Netflix’s First Nollywood Movie

Lionheart is the first ever original film from Nigeria to be streamed on Netflix. The giant streaming service bought the movie in a multimillion dollar deal in September, 2018. The big deal about this is that the film which debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival in September, 2018, can be accessed by anyone, anywhere around the world.

2. Genevieve at her directorial best

For more than two decades, we’ve been used to Genevieve Nnaji, the actress. Lionheart presents to us, Genevieve Nnaji – the movie director. The perfection in her debut behind the camera is better seen than imagined.

3. The All-Star Appearance

Lionheart brought together the Nollywood titans and the afro-pop stars. Nkem Owoh, Pete Edochie, Onyeka Onwenu, Sani Mua’zu Kanayo O Kanayo, Jemima Osunde, Yakubu Mohammed and Kalu Ikeagwu excelled perfectly in their various roles. We bet you wouldn’t also want to miss Phyno and Mr P’s attempts at acting!

4. The Life and Travails of a “working woman”

Lionheart perfectly illustrate what it’s like to be a young woman trying to make it in a business world dominated by men. You will marvel at how the message was passed across in a light-hearted and warm environment. If you a young woman trying to push through amidst men, this movie is for you.

5. Nkem Owoh at his unusual best

Many of us grew up to the height of Nkem Owoh’s melodramatic theatrics. In Lionheart, our favourite Nollywood comedian is curtailed to a brilliant and strategic business man. You should nonetheless expect occasional Igbo jokes transliterated into English.

6. Enugu to the world

It is an unforgivable sin for you not to watch Lionheart if you’re from the coal city. The wonderful drone shots brought to live the flavour, color and beauty of Enugu.

7. The Beauty of Kano

The short trip to Kano state was a beauty. The beautiful scenes felt like a city in Dubai. If you haven’t been to Kano before, we assure you the charming imagery of the city would make you long for there.

8. The Amaka Igwe Effects

Even in her death, Uzoamaka Audrey Igwe has few matches when it comes to movie directing in Nigeria. It’s not surprising to know that Lionheart was Genevieve’s homage to Rattle Snake, Igwe’s award-winning film.

9. The Igbo-Hausa connection

The idea that Igbos and Hausas are sworn enemies has stayed with a lot of Nigerians over the years. Lionheart makes a unique attempt at defying the unpleasant stereotype. You will surely enjoy the seamless mix of Igbo and Hausa by Sani Mua’zu and Pete Edochie.

10. The many lessons

Beyond the awesomely directed scenes are a bunch of lifelong lessons. The later merger between Mikano and Lionheart Transport companies rifts the importance of negotiation and alliances in business. The movie also gives credence to the idea of doing good to strangers and respecting an elderly person’s decision.

Brilliant movie!

If you haven't watched the movie, here are 10 reasons to do so immediately.

MightySparrow:
You are either an illiterate or you don't know what good music is. almost all fuji musicians are illetrates and crude and music noisy lack what you could call professionalism. I think only KWAM makes a little sense though he mentions his name more than other reasonale phrases in his songs.All of them are touts joor.

You obviously haven't listened to KSO

HaileSelassie:
he isn't s snitching. He's only re echoing the sentiments of Majority of Nigerians who have been denied good governance due to this nepotist and reclusive govt.

Seems you read Reno's caption rather than listen to the audio. Reno has fans afterall

I was actually expecting an audio where Amaechi would call out or snitch on Buhari. If this really is the full transcript of the supposed audio tape, then there's nothing surprising or damning there. Reno should go ahead and release part 3 to drive home his propangada properly. For a man that could play "the Wendell Smellin" card, there's no stupid level he can't go to.

Kaetoh:
Oga stay in your lane please, I'm imploring a sister on the right path to follow, I can't be referring to a heartless Afonja beast without a single conscience or human feelings. Dino has presented evidence of his Mercedes G class pierced with bullets insisting the police on the contrary fired shots at his convoy on his way to kogi about six months ago. I know you will remain blind to that but please before condemning him to death why not pretend you're unbiased by waiting patiently until a court verdict is passed after due investigation. I keep warning the south west to stop feeding that monster in aso Rock cos it will someday soon swallow your tinubu. God is watching.

Blablabla. So you're actually panting nd ranting because of a politician that gives no hoot about you right? Your case is surely beyond redemption. If Dino is innocent, the court of law will decide, not your God-forsaken igbotic opinion.

Kaetoh:
you might need to delete this cos it's never easy to be rounded up by arch enemies, especially from this demonic APC heartless and lawless oppressors. Posterity will judge APC, Buhari and the tinubus .

The policeman the foolish dramatist shot is no human being right? I guess posterity is no judge of such.

zlantanfan:
I really laugh at those still struggling to grasp that APC has moved beyond next year in full preparation for 2023, it is no coicedence that buhari is just waiting for the official ceremony from inec.


I do hope yemi doesn't choose elrufai though because elrufai is ambitious and can be unruly for a meek osinbanjo. A nuhu ribadu or a gentle person from the CPC group should be preferred

I would prefer a nuhu ribadu too, but elrufai seems to have a larger fan base up north compared to ribadu.

BiafraBushBoy:
My picture is on my profile.

You are average by standards. That's not even the issue here, post the pic of ur papa and let's compare him with Buhari. Even at 76, PMB remains the most handsome president Nigeria has ever had after IBB.

BiafraBushBoy:
Buhari is lifeless... That one isn't tall...

He looks sick and old...

Post your picture and let's see who looks more attractive between u nd the so called lifeless Buhari. Or better still show the picture of your 60 year old father

Righteousness89:
Are u Nigeria? Bonbing had been at its Peak! And u asking what about bombing!

Aba made rhetorics

Righteousness89:
Nigerians had the best time of No que in December during GEJ tenure!!

This time last year and the year befor were Horror! And you know it!

This year looks better!


It should not be an Election tool because Elections is by the corner and if there was any form of Que it will be a grave Disater

Okay sir. What about the improved roads? The bombings?

haryomikun:
people who live there don't go abroad to become rich. They simply love there because of the increased standard of living.

There's a standard of living someone earning 2 million a month here won't attain compared to someone earning 3k$ disposable income

I hope you know if you get shot in Nigeria, your chances of survival is low... That's how bad Nigeria has gotten to be

You can get shot anywhere bro. The number of violence-based killings are higher in USA than Nigeria.

This is becoming stale abeg

duni04:
This is the popular Jennifer that helped Atiku launder $40million in the US. She and Atiku are fugitives from the US.
I really wonder if Nigerians are daft or just plain stupid. Everything is online! How she and her husband cornered bribes and bought houses in the US with laundered money! Its all online! It baffles me how these same people can raise their heads again! Are Nigerians stupid ni?

Na today u dey Sabi Especially those from the eastside.

ZombieTAMER:
Atiku is Educated.. While Buhari just bought his waec yesterday... Atiku supports ranching... While Buhari does not.. He believes in cows moving into farmlands and helping themselves with crops

Buhari is evil

Please kindly tell us your definition of educated? If buying a National Diploma is your own definition of educated, you've serious issues with your head.

Avedonn:
I was there live.

PDP completely short down Gombe township road leading to Gombe stadium from government house was completely close due to crowd.

With I saw today, PDP is in complete control of Northeast because people came all the way from Bauchi, Yobe, Borno, Adamawa, and Taraba just to participate in the rally.

Atiku was looking so presidential even the police stationed along the highway were hailing him.

For the first time I saw Hausa, Fulani, Igbo and Yoruba and other tribes relating as one people. I was so expressed.

One thing I admire about PDP is they are detribalised and void of religious division.

It'll be a miracle if Buhari defeat Atiku in the entire north east.

Lmao. Isokay. Don't worry, wait till Buhari comes to town

hisexcellency34:
Will Buhari come for debate?

Did Jonathan come? If Buhari comes, will it cures your hatred for him? These are sensible questions you should ask your inverted brain

BillGoldberg:
Story of my life. Igbos are 100% in support of Atiku! We voted against Buhari in 2015 and we will vote against him again come 2019. You know why? Buhari was an imbeccile prior 2015 and became a worse imbeccile post 2015! We do not need any presidency come 2023 as far as it is from Buhari. Nothing good can ever come out of an accursed and cursed fellow from birth like Buhari. We Igbos won't even mind mortgaging our turn to run for Presidency by 2023 all to make sure the Northerners remain in Power! Even if Atiku looses now, we will still give him the support he needs come 2023. We will keep on supporting him till he becomes a President. Who presidency help? Shey Yorubas think they have sense? Lets see a Yoruba man then compete agains a Northerner and see how he wins!

At the bolded, Osibanjo-Elrufai combo would defeat your any of your yeye northern candidate fair and square in the north come 2023. Northerners love PYO for his unshaking loyalty to their small god, Pmb. And he would benefit from that massively in 2023. Your zone will remain in political wilderness till Jesus resurrect.

monkautos:
APC zombies just they jump up and down.. They will like you to do right thing and they themselves do the wrong thing at will.. If it was them now, you go dey hear all sort excuses like they don't trust the APC to organize a peaceful elections.. PDP accepted the blame and is already probing it.. Can we please move on.

When the president refused to sign the electoral amendment bill APC supporters were jumping up and down, so what is the essence of signing a peace accord when police and army would be used to intimidate people during the elections.

[No APC organized elections has been peaceful, so we don't expect to see any peace at all.. It is better we are all prepared for the outcome of the elections than signing a false document promoting peace

Don't die yet bro. Cos if you do, even Satan would reject reject you in in hell fire for this satanic lie.

magoo10:
There is also a reduced number of people using cars this year due to hunger created by buhari.

Na person wey chop belle full go fit afford fuel money.

Yes sure, in your potopoto village.

Nice one. Oyedepo should do the same too.

TreasureJunky:
Considering #3, Buhari must be a very poor man,, even though he's a president.. He's very poor when it comes to creating wealth.. No wonder his cattle doesn't grow more than 150, year in year out

See who dey talk o. U wey sleep, breathe, live and work Buhari every single minute on nairaland. If you have a meaningful life, I bet you wouldn't even have the time to vent your frustrations on a man that's more successful than your entire generation from time immemorial

Congrats to all the real Nigerians that believed in the team till the very end. And to those that wanted a South Africa win, congrats for being worthless bastards.

BabaOwen:
For a professional player like osoala to play a penalty in such a way, she is a shitty player.

Why is oparanozie not playing sef?

It happens bro. Every great player experiences off-periods. Even as awesome as Messi is, he has had worst pks in finals. No be say this girl never do us good before na

jmaine:
You owe people 7 years earned allowances and you expect them not to complain. Some of you act plain stupid simply because you support the govt in power and most of you are hungry.

Shut up abeg! Was that the basis for the strike in the first place? Go check the memo released by ASUU and tell us where the 7 years earned allowance suddenly became the bone of contention.

I don't understand why you people insist on wasting money consistently when it's so visible to even the blind that America is no longer interested in giving Nigerians visas any more. There are so many countries that are equally great and would willingly accept you as an international student. But rather than expend your efforts towards those countries, una keep wasting your efforts, money and emotions on a country that seemingly doesn't want Nigerians anymore!

Majidmuhammad:
i can pay you for this comment. What business does a pastor have with building factorie? Does he make soap?

shut the Bleep up abeg. Was the building his personal money? No be the same politician wey dey destroy the country go give am the funds?

deepchocolate:
Ok. I can elaborate on this a little bit . And probably give you some concrete exemples .

First of all , I suggest you go on YouTube and search for . " cowboy capitalist " .
it is about some white guys going to Africa to make money. Listen to The first 10 MN intro, That will help you understand why Africa is the last frontier .

1- Do you know that 6 or 7 out of 10 world fastest growing economies are in Africa as we speak ?
I was not aware of this myself until a friend who is risk manager at Goldman Sachs investment bank told me this . And I went to Google it.

2- As The world population keep growing exponentially , there is a pending food crisis pending .
Climate change is not a helping matter either because many land are becoming unfavorable and over used .
According to many expert , the solution is in Africa . We have the biggest , largest almost virgin lands for agriculture anywhere in the world. ( Please go listen to Ted radio hour . The big 5 challenges awaiting the world ) . Now ask yourself why the Chinese are all over the continent now trying to grab as many land as the can .

3- less competition , fewer regulation more relax environment. Etc..

I know this Lebanese guy who told me that he used to live in Nigeria when he was young.
His dad opened a candy factory and this is how he started making his fortune .
The Chinese , the Lebanese comes with nothing , and leave our shores millionaires .
When Donald Trump received African leaders he told them how he has many friends who became very rich doing businesses in Africa . Go see that video .

Now to be concrete . Just think outside the box . Don't try to copy what everyone is doing . Try to create solutions in your enviroments. Think big . Always be one step ahead . Money is all around you.

- don't sell that family acres of land just to travel abroad and do manual jobs.
Buy 2 or 3 tractors ( you don't have to farm like your grandfather did ) , build that autonomous irrigation system . Try to be like those rich American farmers .

- solar is another big thing . With all the sun we have you can create a little cooperative , install and supply electricity for your people for a monthly fee.

- you want to do poultry business ? Why not create your own small brand of fast food or KFC type at the side ?

- All those trash you see everywhere , do you know that there are system nowadays to transform it to home cooking gas ?

I can go on and on. If Nigeria is not working for the moment . U can choose another African country . Abide by their law. Mingle with the right people to get some connection. Prayer and some luck , you are good to go.

Easy on paper sir. Come to Nigeria and face the bitter realities.
