geezyk: It's your own opinion though, which is valid to you alone. There's no planet that succession is greater than GOT. And I'm a fan of Succession too. I never said it was greater. 1 Like |

Whizkay:
Comparing Succession to GOT isn't horrifying?
You tried to make a point but then lost it.
But thanks still I would pick ‘Succession over GOT’ succession as an equal masterpiece as GOT. |

oyaskii: lol oh yes 😀..Billie Eilish made magic with that, but my context of the "serious awards" is the big 4, Best actor, Best actress, Best Picture, best director. It was submitted for best adapted screenplay i think, it might get that too, for the latter i mentioned, there are movies far superior in quality to it in that regard. win best adapted screenplay over killer of the flower moon and Oppenheimer? |

Xavier5: SHE MUST BE OBEYED --- 3.5/10
A series that was destined to have a lot of goodness going for it but unfortunately, all that was shattered thanks in whole to being boring, uninteresting, having some senseless plot elements, and lacking a cohesive storyline... the plot was loosed, flying all over the place like smokes released into the atmosphere.
Well, despite its "Tragicness", it had some good elements that tried in their restricted capacities to at least make it watchable. Elements like;
* The actings of Funke Akindele, Bishop Imeh Umoh (Etim) and Akah Nnani (Sisqo). Their actings were impressive. They brought life to the series.
* The bringing back of classic actors in the name of Mike Ezeruonye and Chiwetalu Agu. Seeing them after a long time was thrilling.
* The comic performance of one of my favorite comic actors in Nollywood, Imeh Bishop Umoh. His acting was amazing. He really cracked my rips.
* The good musical scores. It got that one right.
* Showcasing the dirty shenanigans that goes on in the Nigerian Music Industry --- the social media dramas, trolls, fake lives, fake philanthropy, image smearing, sextape scandals etc. To be candid, a film like this would have done way better as R-rated, but unfortunately it wasn't. Stories like this needs to be told raw, without any form of censorship.
Aside these, the series was a disaster in storytelling. It, unfortunately, will always be in "Potential Hell", leaving us wondering how it would have been if done well. This motion picture has the potential of being the Nigerian Music Industry version of Succession and Empire, but unfortunately that isn't the reality.
I sincerely hope its sequel will be well done in other to rectify this trauma of a series.

NB: when it comes to best written series ever... everything is based on opinion... Even IMDB too...
It's always hard to pick the best among the goated ... And there are quite a few series on that goated level...from there on its opinion based...that's what I believe Rolling stone and IMDB isn’t based on just opinions, it takes a lot of reviews from professional critics. You just to see the series for yourself to believe lol |

Baddestguyp: So updated... THE BEST WRITTEN SHOWS I'VE EVER SEEN:
in no particular order :
Breaking Bad Mr Robot Attack on Titan Game of Thrones (except seasons 6-8 )
Note, this list is entirely my opinion... especially for those GOT ending town criers...and also...
I haven't seen The Supranos or The Wire...
Maybe they'll make my list if I watch them...but no time for that now Breaking bad”, “the sopranos” and “the wire” are best series of all time, and that’s a known fact. check “Rolling stone 100 greatest series of all” IMDB most rated series of all time” GOT doesn’t make top 10. You should check them especially, the Sopranos. 1 Like |

Education / Re: Yoruba Language: South-West, Kogi, Kwara Commissioners Meet March 3 by pepemendy(m): 10:37pm On Feb 18, 2022 |
Eastlink: What? Some of you open mouth waa. Are you aware many of us did our NYSC in Kwara state? Let me even break it down so that people understand the make up of Kwara state and not get deceived. Kwara has there senatorial zones. 1. Kwara Central 2. Kwara North 3. Kwara South.
In the real sense, the true Yoruba enclave is Kwara south. Why? No much blood mixture. And here, you get to see strong Yoruba culture in dressing, festivals and outlook.
For Kwara north, it's dominated by the Baruba and Nupe tribes with Edu LGA the biggest in the whole of Kwara followed by Baruten. Edu by right is a Nupe LGA while Baruten is Baruba. Although they are pockets of Yoruba villages here especially in Edu LGA, but they are surrounded by the Nupe & Baruba tribes.
For Kwara central, it's a fusion of many ethnic groups like the Fulani, Hausa, Yoruba, Nupe, Baruba and Kanuri. This is where the problem lies. While Kwara central in reality should be called a Yoruba enclave thanks to the language, the people themselves align with the north. The only celebrated festival here is the typical Islamic occasion like Salah. You will see someone bearing Abdullahi Adekunle Hakeem and you ask if he's Yoruba, dude will gladly warn you not to call him a Yoruba but Fulani. Dude will tell you that his great grandfather is Fulani or Kanuri who migrated from Katsina or Borno and so has no business being called Yoruba. The only time they claim Yoruba is when they migrate to the SW inorder to partake in the largesse of the Yoruba rights like Agbero, Omonile, Alfa, but the moment they return back home you go fear them. Infact at home in Ilorin, there is no difference between them and the typical Aboki in dressing, outlook and attitude. In Ilorin, they attend madrasas, wash prick like Aboki, greet like Aboki and act like Aboki. The only difference is that while Aboki speaks Hausa and eats Tuwo, these ones speak Yoruba and eat Amala .
However still in the outskirts of Ilorin, like Oke Oyi you see true indigenes with pure Yoruba ancestry. They fall under Asa LGA, and Ilorin East both under Kwara central. But the problem is that their position in Ilorin township has killed every form of identifying as Yorubas. These ones are at the mercy of the Fulani with their Balogun stool in the Emir’s palace. it’s only dumb people who can’t make their point without throwing insult. 1 Like |

ShenTeh:
While I get your point, I think the LGs that are actually Yoruba are 12. Kaiama, Barutein, Patigi, and Edu are the non_Yoruba LGs.
Again thank you for helping to correct the ignorance on this thread.
It shows how much of ourselves we know little about, and it is the ignoramuses that speak with such authority and confidence.
that’s very accurate, thank you. 1 Like |
