good!! But Yoruba don't give Igbos run for thier money cos Yorubas are not in competition with anyone. Why will Yorubas give Igbos run for thier money it's Igbos that will give Yoruba run for thier money cos other tribe can only compete with or try to be like Yorubas not other way round.

Accept its all healthy competition
No tribe is more superior than the other
Some excel in this and others in that
The areas left undecided springs up competition
That's what I call healthy competition
We must understand this.

So no single title of film they acted, the best you can do is to go and list a random names for us right?? And I now that because someone talked about Yoruba good people now, that has given you guys unnecessary homeworks, no rest for you again, your next assignments now is to go and be searching internet like a mad man looking for Igbo next rated actors without one movie title.

Stop being too jealous whenever other tribes are metioned doing good. No one said your tribe men don't live overseas, everyone has one or two things doing over there. Every tribe is good. Hausa/Fulani has good people over there, Ijaw, Itshekiri, Benin, Calabas, Benue, Akwa Iboms, Yorubas, Igbos etc, Nigeria is doing good. But the problem of superiority mindsets is very synonymous to you guys trying to claim or prove it's only your igbo tribe that's good in everything.
You can do better by just reading, applauding without bringing your people into it but you won't. SMH
You are the biggest clown on planet Earth! It's your type that not only fails examination repeatedly but fail with answers given. Can't you see that I'm replying someone who said that Igbos have no Hollywood actors? Or were you blind when someone used this platform to degrade Igbos?? And you want the movies they acted? Then Google it! Most of them are very popular and big actors and actresses known all over the UK and US Entertainment industry, so if you follow those industries you should know them merely by looking at their names. Yes, all Nigerian tribes are represented in the United States, but some are overrepresented! So you can go and cry elsewhere.

you are a confirmed werey if not you won't be telling me to go and be searching for film's your people acted while your mate posted a very simple and analysed post showing Yoruba actors with the movies they acted. Your own imaginary actors don't have designation or movies?? It's like Mkpuru Mmirin is disturbing your dotted flattened head abi??

I am not jobless like the person who opened the thread; I barely even have time to reply you so....Imagine me going online to copy and paste the list of movies people who don't give me money acted. You think everyone is thoughtless?? If you can't use your Google, then don't disturb me. BTW, no Nigerian male in Hollywood is as influential as Chiwetel Ejiofor and no Nigerian female as Carmen Ejogo, so if you don't know them then we shouldn't even be having this conversation.

But did the OP said yamirin are not doing well?? Why are you guys so bad and hateful like this?? It's high time you people stop being too wicked and face front in addressing how to create a good name for yourself in the minds of every other tribes instead of always engaging in irrelevant issues on nairaland.
You people second name is hate... What on earth will make a brain roof person tag another tribe "hateful" are you kidding me..


Obviously they hate the truth

There are upcoming ones that also need to be reckoned with.
Because you don't know them yet, doesn't mean they are not great or star worthy
Never underestimate the underdog
