“This is a warning to you. It has come to our notice that you have produced a video about the problem in the Niger-Delta without proper consultations regarding the true state of affairs in the area. You are hereby warned not to release that video or be faced with grave consequences.

We are very well informed about your daily routine and that of your child. Your address is 35 Colorado Close, Maitama, Minister’s Hill and your child schools at Ecole Francais Marcel-Pagnol d’Abuja, Durumi district,Abuja. Be warned”!

Those who have watched the movie said it amy have revealed some uncomfortable secrets behind the struggle of the Niger-Delta and how some disgruntled leaders are playing politics with the lives of the citizens.
These and more are what the said group does not want to be a public knowledge.

The Niger Delta region of Nigeria has 606 Oil-fields and exports 50% of all its oil resources to the United States and is the world’s capital of oil pollution.

Corrupt government officials, greedy oil companies and violent rebels go on a war path over oil spills and the degradation of the land caused by oil exploration

The film x-rays fifty years of uncorrected oil spills and lack of clean-up which has destroyed the environment and ecosystems leaving the area almost uninhabitable while obliterating the livelihood of its residents costing them basic human rights such as health, access to food, clean water, and an ability to work.

Black Gold was to be premiered on February 24th at the Silverbird Galleria in Lagos but the latest developments may have distrupted the plans of the movie producers.

The film has an impressive casts, starring Mbong Amata, Tom Sizemore, Vivica Fox, Billy Zane, Hakeem Kae-Kazim, Sarah Wayne Callies, Razaaq Adoti, Dede Mabiaku, Eric Roberts, Larry Manetti and Michael Madsen.

The film produced by Starkid productions owned by American based Nigeria, Ori Ayomike, was directed by Jeta Amata in collaboration with Suzanne DeLaurentiis was shot in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria and in Los Angeles, California.

Full Stop.

There should be Police notices about this incident, otherwise my native neighbors will be hunting for producers of movies that present occult and blood money rituals as well as yahoo-yahoo boys. I think it is a publicity stunt. I saw the trailer and a bit of the acting, I was not impressed save for the quality of the production/sound. I fear the acting/script won't hold me in suspense at all. but who am i to judge. Jeta, better contact the GEJ's special adviser on Nigeri-Delta, Emperor, Alhaji, Sultan Mujahid Asari Dokubo for immediate assistance  

WOW!! Naija don dey try sha. I guess I was a little too hard on Nollywood.
Jeta Amata is doing great!

The truth is bitter. The Niger-deltans who have benefitted from the oil issues in the country cannot stand being exposed. The threat is very callous and unnecessary. To those people who keep saying the Northerners are the most violent and insensitive, could you explain to me what's happening now?

I hope its not true otherwise make the guy run oooo!

is the film out? i need to watch. this may win awards ooooo. like the graphics and production

Would he reveal his address and that of his child's school for a marketing stunt? Except they don't check out. And @OP, I don't see where it says he has skipped Nigeria.

This one, I jump am Pass.

This is Nigeria for us. Truth they say is always bitter. they handy work of the devil is being exposed like this, their territory is always in trouble.

I guess u aint reading with yoiur "jigi oju" probably u would have known that those who posed the treat did not praise the film nor spoke about the cast.

I am reporting live from seychelles, as am writing this, Jeta amata is rocking in a so-called club - name witheld - with two beautiful ladies. Indeed, he has flown out of naija.

Lovely cast, should be a nice movie. I will def be at the Cinema's when it comes out.

i hope the stunts in the movie are better than this one, because this is pretty lame.

I'll rather die by the noose than watch a movie directed by a nigerian. You can tell it's just a wanna be , something towing the line of blood diamond. Mscheww
