That one don loss.. I give it to stars like John boyega, akunuoye agbaje for alwys showcasing naija at every slight opportunity, sometimes they even flip the script so that anything Naija can be in a movie... Worthy mention is kae kazeem and Sam of the dynasty series.

I read that that guy lost his father in a road accident when he was ten or twelve. I don't know how true it is, but the cause of the accident and how he was raised/treated after could explain why he doesn't seem as proud.
It could also be that he is just an introvert.
