"Oluwa mi, kin se ejo mi. eyin na e wo oo".
meaning, "My lord, it is not my fault. see for yourself". den he/she look 2wards d camera angle, face bcom blurred & a clip is shown proving d innocence of d accused, & wen dey return 2d court scene, evry1 shouts "Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!"
and he/she is freed.
very common in yoruba films.

When Emeka Ike (& co) as old as he is, is always a uni student with back pack chasing girls around. Emeka Ike is 40 from my guess, why must he be featuring in campus scenes as student!

when some is shot through the window without the glass shattering.
When every problem is been caused by someone in the village.
When couples always cover themselves wih thick blanket while kpecusing.
When all mother-in-law are always wicked.
When a gun is fired with torn paper scattering in the air.
When Aki and Pawpaw are always regarded as kids despite having to kiss an oversize chick on set.
To be continued....
