Attach
Their
Bounds

You have bigger issues to worry about than what these "desperate people" are up to.

You desperate lots already got the message. So quit looking for issues where their are none.

Some people are desperately trying so hard to attache there failed Yorubawood industry to Nollywood

According to the initial article there it was Out of bound with Richard Mofe Damijo in 1996 that shot her to Limelight.

So before it gets to FP, they desperately ran to Wikipedia and updated there OWO blow abi wetin with some unknown actor and backdated that Wiki page as well.
This shows how desperate this people are to reap where they never sowed.

Well It's only on nairaland you get to see all this Z-list unknown actresses. Totally Bleached up Yoruba actresses with their dark daughters.

MikeB3:
Good for her and good for Nollywood Yoruba sector. I am always happy seeing the Yoruba guys doing great stuffs because it leaps them above their peers in the other Nollywood sector! #mytake

There is nothing like Nollywood Yoruba sector Yorubawood is not Nollywood.

JustCurious:
You haven't mentioned the one for Igbo/Ibo? Is it IboWood? Mtshew. :|

Just stop the discrimination, already and learn to appreciate every actor/actress' contributions to the movie industry -Nollywood.

Same Successful Nollywood industry were pioneered by Igbos but has always accomodated all Nigerians. Its no one's fault Yorubawood couldn't grow their Yorubawood industry hence the desperate Attache by force to Nollywood. Yorubawood is not and has never been part of Nollywood.

skysailor:
nothing like Yorubawood

lol
all nollywood... maybe just Yoruba movie category

They are not all Nollywood. Yorubawood movies ain't part of Nollywood.
Even Hausa/Fulani/Kanuri movie industry are known as Kanny wood. Yoruba movies are known as Yorubawood.

Stop ranting, Africa magic has series, it's you people that want to hijack Nollywood, Yoruba films had been existing long before you people came to infuse your juju and blood money films to make it appealing in your way which has made the industry so proliferated.


Read this to learn, an Igbo author wrote this;

The appearance of video films in Nigeria, plus its popularity, point to its importance as a new medium for the production, dissemination and consumption of film as a form of popular culture, with its ideology and aesthetics [Ekwueme,2002]

The idea of video films was inspired by Yoruba Travelling Theatre. The idea was later introduced by Babatunde Adelusi (Adamson) publisher of a now rested photo-play Magazine who said that the production of video films will not only save cost of production but will be a good alternative to Indian and Chinese films. This idea was later actualised by Ade Ajiboye (Big Abass) who produced SOSO MEJI, the first Nigerian Video film in 1988. It was shown publicly at Tinuade Cinema in Oworonshoki, Lagos for a token fee and it was successful. Subsequently, Alade Aromire produced EKUN in 1989 which he screened at the National Theatre, Iganmu, Lagos. The success of the movies was an eye opener for other producers. Hence many Yoruba movie actors and enthusiasts mostly based in Meiran, a Lagos suburb sought assistance from film promoters like Kenneth Nnebue of Nek Video Link, Lagos and Sulaimon Aweda who were both important film distributors and exhibitors. Kenneth Nnebue, capitalising on the gains of the industry, decided to invest in a lot of low budget video films. Such video films include AJE NI IYA MI, IJA ELEYE, OSA ELEYE etc.

The development did not go down well with the new school of “video filmmakers” who termed his investments as peanuts. They left and organise themselves. Jide Kosoko, Adebayo Salami, Gbenga Adewusi and Alade Aromire led them, [Ekwueme, 2002:34] this regrouping resulted in the appearance of different production companies including Bayowa Films International, Aromire Films, Jide Kosoko Production and many others. Films began to be produced in large volumes and with film marketers and distributors setting up offices and distribution outlets in Idumota, Lagos, the industry took off.

Video film in Igbo language was silent until the latter part of 1992, when Kenneth Nnebue produced the first Igbo Video film in the country, LIVING IN BONDAGE which became a major hit among the Igbo audience and was also well accepted by non-Igbo speaking audience. Other Igbo video films followed, Igbo films were produced in either Igbo or English languages. Video films like TABOO I and II by Dan Oluigbo of Sage Production. JEZEBEL by Francis Agu, Amaka Igwe-Isaac’s RATTLESNAKE I and II, VIOLATED I and II and many others were produced. By the 1992, a new crop of professional filmmakers have emerged from the Eastern and other parts of the country. Virtually unknown on stage before their début into the Nigerian film industry most of them have produced or acted in serials for television notably Zeb Ejiro, Kenneth Okonkwo and Amaka Igwe-Isaac. With the massive entry of Igbo and English video films, the producers of Yoruba video films who had hitherto monopolised the business faced a though competition and as a result a vibrant industry was created.

Quit posting trash with your imaginary Igbo Author. it's no one's fault you lots couldn't grow una Yorubawood industry after so many decades hence the need to attach to Nollywood. How can we even Hijack our own Industry same Nollywood industry we pioneered.

This is also from Ramsey Nouah

It's been 23 years since living in Bondage kick started Nollywood, and the 1992 game changer is set for a massive reboot.

Entertainment/business mogul Charles Okpaleke of play Entertainment Network and award-winning Nollywood star, Ramsey Nouah, are collaborating to remake Kenneth Nnebue's 1992 classic.

Speaking on the Project, Ramsey says, there is no way you will mention Nollywood without talking about living in Bondage. It was the kick-starter for the Industry I work in today.

So WTF are you saying

skysailor:

Tanzania movie industry?

Not Yorubawood movies.

nephemmy:
she's a YOLLYWOOD actress not nollywood, and what the hell is pinkies..so dumb

That's the best name that Z-list unknown Yorubawood actress could come up with. All those women there look bleached up.

Aminat508:
The popular Nollywood actress and CEO of Fespris World, Iyabo Ojo, celebrated her NGO, Pinkies Foundation 5th anniversary on Sunday 1st of May, 2016, held at R&A City Hotel, Majekodunmi Street, Off Allen Avenue in Ikeja.

She's a Yorubawood actress not a Nollywood actress. Stop attaching this Z-list unknown Yoruba actresses to Nollywood.

Yorubanews:
He's good where he's at. Other Nigerians should make an attempt to learn Yoruba. English Nollywood is crap, we don't want them influencing our Oga at the top.

Yoruba producers need to get better technical writers for their subtitles sha.

Envy and jealousy is your problem. Even you hateful lots don't even watch those Crappy voodoo movies of una filled with illiterates and bleachers. Your Artiste don't wanna be called Yorubawood actors but Nollywood actors.
This article was written by one of your brothers

Let me also assert unequivocally that the Igbo youths are now becoming more prosperous in the entertainment industry than the Yoruba Youth. Today, the Yorubas hardly tune their DSTV to the Yoruba movie of the satellite television. Rather, they watch some other movie channel that show English movies with actors and actresses of Igbo extraction. Why? Because most Yoruba movies are short of creativity.
https://www.nairaland.com/2668808/opinion-todays-yoruba-youths-100

How then can others watch when you lots don't even watch those craps.

sugarboi52:
Because he doesn't do village films from the east..

See painment cos I said I don't know him. He's only popular amongst Yorubas and at SW. Well those Nollywood films are very Popular around Africa and in Diaspora.

Which film do all those Africa Magic channels show?
Which film do Africa movie channel show? Even Iroko TV which films do they show? Which films are know as Nollywood?

All those Actors and Actresses are very Popular around Africa and in Diaspora. Those Village films are all part of Nollywood films that generate huge income for the industry. but Yorubawood voodoo films ain't part of Nollywood.

ireneony:
nairaland pls stop making z-list celeb famous. I had never heard of her.



Make una kukuma change celebrities section to yoruba section

You are very correct, even so many popular celebrity threads hardly hit FP. But they keep putting so many unknown, Z-list people on FP. Nairaland has simply gone to the Dogs.

Yorubanews:

Which rest of Nigeria know him he's not known anywhere else apart from SW and amongst Yorubas.

Yorubanews:
Na you sabi. of unladen is the best actor in Nigeria. Continue wailing.

He's probably best Yoruba actor cos outside SW he's not known elsewhere.

Yorubanews:
Na you sabi. He's the best actor in Nigeria

Which best actor in Nigeria Who sabi am? He's not even a Nollywood actor but a Yorubawood actor. so he is probably Yoruba's best Actor.

Yorubanews:

demolinka:

domopps:

A no show Nigeria Superstar wizkid has sent Zambian revellers back home with frustration and flaring temper. By 21 hrs only 24 people had gathered at Heroes stadium the venue of the much publicised gig. Zambian musician Slapdee has also left the stage and he is currently in Kabwata.

What more Faz find it difficult to make the stadium full to capacity you might be an International Artist but to me you are not as big as Psquare.
