ezeagu: Aye omo y1bo ti baje, wallahi. So, all those producers of 10 films in 5 minutes are the ones y1bos are calling legends. Well we are used to it, you always have an opposing meaning for words in alaigbo --- the coward ojukwu was described as brave, the stupidity of fighting fighter jets and T72 tanks with cassava sticks was termed as bravery, treasonable felony is being seen as freedom of speech. So, if you call those categories of producers legends, i will definitely not be surprised, you are simply keeping up with your genetic traits. 1 Like |

But even your Yoriwood actors recognize that your industry is different from Nollywood now. You don't seem to be proud of your Yoriwood, why? By the way, I don't appreciate the way you bastardize the name of my tribe, calling us 'yiibo.' That's not nice. superstar1: 2 Likes |

IlekeHD: That's a disagreement over strategy, not disunity. Disunity is fighting an internal war. Igboland wouldn't be as developed after the war if there was disunity. Disunity is for Niggerian politicians. Hope you're not confusing them with everyday people. 2 Likes |

nwanlecha: I apologise for that because you are not like those stup1d e-warriors. You are very funny. I am sure one thing Yorubas are well known for is their pride in their language, culture and heritage, no matter how westernised we grow. We are proud of our film industry and that was while we could pioneer a local language film station on DSTV, because the audience was there. But, we will not allow some people to lay claim to an industry that belong to the whole country. Therefore, Nollywood comprises of all the films produced in Nigeria. If igbos want an exclusive igbo dominated industry, they need to create Igboplank of Biafraudwood. 1 Like |
