someone asked an important question that I think got deleted.
I saw it quoted.
here it is in a different way.
Olabowale,since you have many wives,which one is your legal wife in the USA and which one is your "sister"
secondly when you're invited to a function how do you select whom to take
the one that makes a tastier efo?

where's aloy emeka.
I need more evidence.
you're right laudate and tpia could be the same.
very vague as usual.
you call it balanced,I call it undercover tribalist.
It's obvious where he leans in discussions.

vicade is some idiot from last year who lives in scotland or so
his anti Igbo rhetorics are legendary.I just looked at the old threads where he had the war pictures of starving children just like his new self did.
Exact same style

KarmaMod:
Where's your proof that she's Texcee?

none.
But It's pretty obvious that texcee and arnold1 are one and the same
I remember you saying texcee was naijachild back then
don't you see the similarity with stalking queenisha and style of writing
I also figured out that the bufoon that started that igbo hatred thread with biafran photos was none other than that alaye boy called vicade.

This thread is an eyeopener.
so TPIA na you be the slowpoke texcee that pops up to post nasty news about Igbos whenever crime news about Yorubas surface?.
This all makes sense now
If you are the female Texcee,you are also arnold1
Because they're the same persons.
This all adds up now.

EVERYONE,

Lets say am in a r/ship with a guy that is an Ogboni member [but i don't know]
What signs can i look for that will convince me that he cld be a memb

please this is important

Look in his closet,I hear they have a wierd looking garment they wear for meetings.
Secondly I hear they don't attend funerals of non members.
Thirdly I hear they have a box or closet or room that's offlimits to anyone.

KarmaMod:
Would you like a list of them because I can give it to you.

As long as the person can speak Yoruba, no one is barred from Yoruba movies.

It's funny how the people who don't even WATCH these movies or know anything about them are the ones barking the most. So obvious that they lack the knowledge of the suvbject. Just want to act like everyone is against them

This is a legitimate arguement. Take your "why is everyone after us" whining else where.

Yes TOH get a list of Igbos in Yoruba movies and a list of Yorubas and non Igbos in Nollywood.
I'm sure you were referring to me in the highlighted part
For the barking bit,let me hold my comments.
It's true I'm not a big fan of these movies but it 's difficult not to respond to all these accusations of tribalism especially from Yorubas for the millionth time
Please produce that list for us to see.
I double dare you

DeepZone:
I've said this before remember but my point now as a nollywood lover is that there should be diversification. Yorubas make up about 40% of ibo movies fan base so they can't afford to lose that audience for real. They can afford to lose their Liberian, Ugandan, Carribean, Ghananian etc fans but not home fans. Yorubas already have a stake in the ibo movie industry by the virtue of fan base and it's in the best interest of the movie makers to mark down the proportion of ibo actors and actresses in order to accommodate others. As a matter of fact, Nollywood should be casting indigenous Liberians or Ugandans in their movies by now. Even NBA signed Yao Ming mainly because they want to sell the NBA to Asians. Beckham came to the galaxies because MLS wants to increase it's viewership. So, don't think that the future success of Nollywood relies on the ibos alone, without the yoruba support, they may be back to square one. If major Yoruba actors and actresses continue to complain like this, people may start taking them more serious. Personally, i used to see the complaints as a mere ranting from a frustrated man/woman but not the established actors too. Nollywood employs one or two hausas in their movies which may be okay considering that their northern fans are not as large as the western fans. One word is enough for the wise.

and who tells you there are no Yorubas  and non Igbos in Nollywood?
This thread is a repetition.
someone actually posted names.
If a Yoruba man would not watch a nollywood movie because there are no Yorubas in it,let him keep his money.
There are Yoruba movies with 100% Yorubas abi?
that's an alternative
I doubt if the folks at 51 Iweka road Onitsha are complaining

who are these major actresses complaining?
if she refused to act, do you think anyone would miss her?
when our universities are churning out tons of girls willing to work?

omoge:

by the way, osisi, can one freeze joloff and shrimp fried rice?

yes you can.
I've done it a few times when I run out of space in the refrigerator.
You can freeze virtually anything.
You can put jollof rice in freezer bags/I Quart ziplock bags and seal them well and freeze.
They can stay for a long time and as long as they're well sealed,when they defrost and you warm it up,it tastes like new.
I haven't tried it in a deep freezer though.

exactly!
and what happens if she gets pregnant 2 months after?
abort again?
when it's cheap to get a pack of condoms or insert an IUD
Our people can be very daft
How can people chop unprotected and "pray" not to be pregnant,worse still vacuum off the embryo
that's the definition of stupidity.

this is what the poster said.

i have posted this on the family section. if your husband tells you to abort a pregnancy, even when you have few kids, like 2 or 3, what would you do? what does he feel 4 you? and will you later have a baby for him if "he says he is ready now for another?"

people are coming up with scenarios out of "desperate housewives"
The husband is telling the wife to abort a baby because he's not ready to have a 4th child.
abortion as a contraceptive measure
I will choose my unborn child to the person,anyday
It's my choice not his.
@ the poster the man has no regard for you.
he only sees you as a sperm receptacle
this singular act should tell you how lowly he thinks of you.
a loving husband would never want to put his wife through this trauma of killing a baby in her womb
he would stand by her and support her believing that God will provide for them all
after all he had been stupid not to use contraceptive methods.
why should you bear the guilt and scar in your body?

KarmaMod:
Of course it does. ESPECIALLY when they don't even SOUND British. Halle Berry disgraced herself in XMen when she was asked to play the part of a Kenyan and sounded like a bloody Jamaican. don't know why they couldnt just get a pretty Kenyan lady to play the part

Yoruba movies that have stories involving other tribes USUALLY use a person from that particular tribe

Nollywood needs to get themselves together

To you she disgraced herself because you know Kenyan accent.To 99% of the movie goers she spoke Kenyan and they went to see her.
This is busines.
People paid to go see Halle Berry.
If it was some Ms Tumfulu Mandingo of the Massai tribe, they may not go.
That's business.

KarmaMod:
To be honest osisi, it's true.

The fact that in Nollywood movies, they feel the need to employ Igbos to play Yoruba parts bothers me.

I'm sure if they WANTED to, they can find a Yoruba person who can speak their 'wannabe Americana" English.

LOL
I'm not a big fan of nollywood.
Most of the movies are trash to me.
The only ones I watch are comedy especially Nkem Owoh or Patience Ozokwor.
I love to laugh.
But I love the enterprising spirit that drives that industry that has employed hundreds that otherwise would be jobless.

why do they have Americans acting like Britons , accents and all in Hollywood ?
does that bother you?
why does Beyonce have to pack on pounds to act a movie
are there no full figured actresses?

grafikdon no be you dey make "Igbo cartoons"?
Wait till you make it big and there'll be a thread wondering why your characters say chineke mee
and odikwa egwu when there are 666 tribes and tongues in Nigeria.

grafikdon:
In addition, a lot of Nigerians are so ignorant/nonchalant/unreasonable that they brand everyone across the Niger ''Ibo". In their delirious minds anything Produced by Amata, Ejiro, Imasuen, Isong is branded with the derogatory name "Engligbo film".

look at Deepzone typing "Ibo'' all over the place when she knows the real thing is "Igbo". . .

anyone passed Ondo state is Omo Ibo as far as many of the whiners are concerned.
Nigeria did not give this people shishi.
I won't mention names.
One of the producers at nollywood is good friends with one of our inlaws and they borrowed tons of money from him and shot several movies at his homes.
These people suffered and sweated and some sold everything they had to make it.
To hear people talk this kain nonsense is annoying.
Nigeria is big enough for edowood,calabarwood,riverswood ,and all the woods in between
