Meet The Nollywood Director That Casts Mostly Yorubas In His Movies by Infolenka: 6:29pm On Jan 23, 2021
Kunle Afolayan must really love his fellow Yoruba actors and actresses, or maybe he thinks they are more talented that the rest. Probably it's because he finds them more easy to communicate with. Either way, I'll post proof of his casting reputation in 3 of his most successful movies.

His movies are now forbidden anywhere in my town.

I think he has problems with Igbos that he really needs to let go off his chest. Even though the Igbos now know who he is, they just pretend like he doesn't exist

Stop sounding like Fulani herdsmen. Is ini Edo Igbo? She's from Cross River if not Akwa Ibom.

Nigerian and bigotry are like garri and water.
Business and success doesn't mind the tribe and religion.
Why is op calling the actor cum director out?

Ibrahim Chatta is a Yorubanized Nupe with a Yoruba mother. He is from Kwara state and we consider him one of us.
