Olusola is Kevin's last name and as we all know last names are not that easily changed, first names are. I don't see that many options Kevin has to change his last name, Olusola. What I should be asking you is, why is he going by the name 'Kevin'? Why is he not going by his Yoruba native name 'Oluwole'?

Now i see where your handsomness and classiness come from. A typical yoruba man can never be like you that is why you see the only yorubas good enough to have national appeal are those with igbo blood like you and segun arinze.
I know you hate your father for that singular drop of yoruba blood he gave you that almost totally contaminated you.
Thank God you have purified your blood by further diluting it with the blood of our brothers from akwa ibom and calabar.....the greatest and truest friends of the igbos and our eternal allies.May God give you the ability to shed all yoruboid thing from your blood

You started what you can't finish, people like need to be treated like a fool. You finally got my attention so you are now happy abi. I'm sure you are my little cousin age mate. Just grow up, your life shouldn't depend on pettiness, I'm sure you are a man and you're acting like a lady. Only God knows if you are the gay among us... Only gays are so petty like you

You really do not expect me to bandy words with you, do you?

Anyways, this will be my last piece to you. I need to go cleanse myself, judging from the vituperations you have been spitting since, only God knows the volume of gay saliva you must have poured on my head.

Nollywood is a creation of Yoruba.

Television, film industry, home movies were all pioneered by Yoruba in Nigeria, before others joined..

You removed fine name like Olusola from your name because of one stupid Nollywood movies and Igbo producers. Why is he so fake like many of us? But now that you want to join Politics and need the help of the people, you quickly remember Olusola.


Why would a sane person replace Olusola with Desmond? I'm proud to have a yoruba name "Oluwatosin" I will never substitute it for anything in this world, I'm proud of my culture and where I'm coming from. Why should I be ashamed of my name because of Igbo producers? Too bad!!!

You lack the history. You need the history. It is so easy to claim Nollywood now because it is successful. I guess you need understanding. Let me make things clear to you.

Abiodun starts a company, ABC, in 1960 dealing with fruit production. However, his market outreach is within a particular zone.

In 1980 Emeka starts a company, DEF, dealing in fruit production as well as soft drinks within his zone. Later Emeka changes to food production proper seeing the greater demand for food nationwide and also the greater market coverage and business potential that lies in it. 20 years later, his company grows exponentially and expands into other zones and the country decides that it would be a good idea to merge ABC and DEF into one greater national comapny, ABDEF, that represents the entire country, however each company still maintains and runs its own affairs within.

It is very clear in the minds of Nigerians that Nollywood is an Igbo success story. Igbos gave Nollywood the life and spirit that it has today. Yorubawood can split out of Nollywood today and Nollywood will still remain strong as if nothing left. Yorubas know that Nollywood isn't Yoruba and often use it to refer to as an Igbo movie industry.

In life, it is not about who started first. One thing is constant in life - change. People worldwide know this. It is only amongst Yorubas that I see this idea of their being first in this or that means that they must own or control that thing forever. In the business environment, competition exists. You have to find what gives you that competitive advantage over your competitors else others will take over. That is life. The Igbos being naturally competitive and business minded grew their movie industry to overtake prior movie industries in Nigeria to build the number 2 largest movie industry in the world and number 3 in terms of gross annual revenue, ahead of the Chinese, Japanese, British, Australian, New Zealand, South African movie industries in little under 30 years. This feat attributed to the hardwork and success of the Igbos who made it possible. The switch from Igbo to English helped in expanding the Igbo movie industry while still maintaining the Igbo culture and traditions in the movies. The section of Nigeria's movie industry the world outside sees is the Igbo-acting part, and not the Yoruba acting part. Unlike the Yoruba-speaking industry, the Igbo movie industry is not limited to the SE and Igbo-speaking areas of SS. It is expansive and exclusive to all of Nigeria, Africa, the Caribbean (my Haitian colleague at work tells me how she and her sister love Nollywood movies and how she has picked up words such as 'nna anyi, 'Igwe' etc. you commonly hear in Nollywood movies). On the other hand, Yorubawood is limited to the South West with far lesser market or viewing audience compared to Nollywood proper. Left to the Yoruba-speaking industry, Nigeria's movie industry would not have been what it is today had we waited on the industry. Till today this industry still struggles to make profitable revenues and their actors and actresses are grossly underpaid compared to what those in the Nollywood industry earn. Yoruba actors and actresses in Nollywood are richer and more popular than their counterparts in the Yoruba-speaking industry. Of recent, we are now beginning to see more Yoruba movie stars crossing over into Nollywood proper such as Funke Akindele, Eniola Badmus etc.

Let us learn to give honour to whom it is due. Nigeria can only be great if we decide to leave the unnecessary tribal gimmicks and appreciate the efforts of others.

bigfrancis21:


LOL. The movie industry sector referred to as 'Nollywood' actually started out as an Igbo-speaking movie industry in the 80s with epic movies such as Ahanna, Nneka the Pretty Serpent etc. and then in the late 90s, the switch to the English movie industry was made and the movie industry has ever grown since then, merging with the Yoruba movie industry and also incorporating other minority movie industries such as the Ibibio/Efik and Bini/Ishan movie industries. The Yorubas did start acting theatrical plays and stage plays, however they did not give birth to what is known today as Nollywood. Nollywood started out as an Igbo-speaking movie industry. Please know your history.

Story.....


Omotola Jalade Ekeinde

Funke Akindele

Olu Jacob

Según Arinze


Among other, are all of the Yoruba tribe, they have all successfully worked with Igbo producers without changing their names.
I don't think segun arinze is a yoruba man ooo. If you say he is, what about rotimi amaechi is he also a yoruba?

Shut d fucck up loosers. Yorubas where d first set of people making movies before 1970s, or 60s long before igbo released their first movie. d ibos of then were only watching yoruba films.

Nolly wood was created by yorubas but some yorubas prefer yoruba movies also, to unite all d yoruba speaking nations accross d world who keep requesting 4 yoruba films like Togo, benin, ivory coast,cuba , Ghana, Nigeria e.tc.

Nollywood is not strictly igbo is both otherwise it will be founded up in d east.

It was d igbo producers that love to dominate dat brought abt bring more igbos especially cheap igbo women dat they want to take advantage off.
