I learnt they’ve torn the giant Gangs of Lagos advert that was on 3MB.

Well, na guilty conscience dey worry dem. How can they ascribe a work of fiction to their reality?

I saw Gang of Lagos banner being pulled down from the bill board beside third mainland bridge,
This is just a day after Isale Eko Descendants Union threatened legal action.
IDU protested violence & gangsterism portrayed of Eyo in the film.

But wetin concern you?
Or you want to play victim again

Agberos and touts....

Where is the picture of APC members tearing it?

Imagine that this movie was written,directed and produced by igbos,...four major markets for don dey burn.

Oohhh yawa

The movie truly described Lagos island life, their dirty environment and rough life, and touched also on their political godfather activities. It was not against our culture when they were using "oro ritual" to threaten people during just concluded elections! Yeye government 😂😂😂

Home of thugs

fake news.

There is no evidence presented and OP suddenly blame APC for this. Fake news should not be entertained on Nairaland.

So I can just find any picture and open a thread that LP or Ibo people did something without proof?

They are looking for the trouble again then now say Igbo and other non indigenes are being put in their place as visitors by their Yoruba hosts.

How this concerns APC or Igbo like OP beggars belief. The film makers have not even done as little as apologise and beg for understanding that they were not out to hurt the sensibilities of the heritage of the indigenes they disrespected.

There is nothing exceptional in asking for film be withdrawn. In the early 90s, there was a Yoruba film titled "Arugbo To Re Mecca" that generated uproar, it was stepped down with wisdom and re-edited . The lead actress is still active till date. Even about same time was KIng Wasiu Ayinde's song that denegrates the Yoruba sub ethnic Ogu people of Badagry but he stepped down the song and reworked it to remove the offensive lyric. K1 has gone on to achieve even greater milestones afterwards.

They are ignorant yet forming woke as if they are the first to act or script film that need to be reworked.

Those in the film and those behind it are now in real trouble. Just remove the offensive part and replace the real names of location used with fictional names then apologise to show your art connect with real people.
check my signature for free stuffs!

This could have been done by anyone.

They should sue LASG and get millions

Exactly. Jade Osiberu hasn’t yet responded to any of the request from the Eyo holders except maybe I missed it.

Even Vector who is obviously not APC has been trying to call out the producer of the movie for bastardizing the Eyo heritage and you have lot of people coming out to vent their anger on that.

The producer of the movie need to at least come out and clear the air and try to make amends so this can cool down.

You still want evidence that Tinubu is suffering from dementia while you can't say what Balablu bulabu is..

By the time...all these EL-Pee people.deal.with docile Lagosian who are always reactive instead of to be proactive....then you could have seen Emeka Chinassa as the new governor of Lagos state....

Do you think they have a good mind toward you ruling Lagos State....after all the rumor of who owns Lagos state has finished...they came with another one....Sanwoolu is in problem......for this second...term.....


Omo.Ekko...it.is time to rise up for the evil agenda of some people masquerading as a legit people to hikack the control of your fatherland away from you.....or you will be substitute as Illorin Afonja children are facing it right now....

Lagos State will never make substantial progress as long as these folks are in charge. I learnt they’ve torn the giant Gangs of Lagos advert that was on 3MB.

After frowning at the movie, Lagos APC has torn the banner of the movie.

Well, na guilty conscience dey worry dem. How can they ascribe a work of fiction to their reality?

You learnt Lagos APC tore down the banner? Not Lagos PDP or LP? They tore down the banner cause it was displaying an opposition candidate or what? How many opposition banners and bill board did they bring down during the election? Please paste your evidence to show its APC that tore it down.

Who is una? I hope you are referring to producers of the movie

That guy Kazeem who was killing people like flies in the movie called himself Asiwaju. Hahahah... that movie is a true picture of Lagos. Na who never stay Lagos no know. I lived 4 years in those rough parts of Lagos before moving my beautiful life away from such terror. Thank you Lord Jesus!

why? Because you don't want the truth to come out? You may hid the fire but you cannot hid the smoke.

This is what we should expect if tinubu is sworn in.

AGBEROCRACY IS THEIR WAY OF LIFE.....

Frank688915:

I also watched it last night and see no reason why is should be banned or why should it be banned? In fact, many people have already downloaded the movie?!

In an interview, Jade Osiberu said she co-wrote the movie with Kayode Jegede who is from Isale-Eko and they where there in Isale-Eko after 'meeting those who facilitated " the go ahead, shooting the movie there for 50 days!
