FOR THE RECORD….

It never ceases to amaze me how people who are not in an industry can stand and speak as ‘authorities’ of the same; usually condemning it. Its kind of like the case of the White man that came to Africa for a few months and then goes back to speak as an ‘expert’ or authority on Africa . Pray, tell, can you know all about Africa or Nigeria in three months? Which brings me to the topic at hand and that is the case of Nollywood. I am writing not in defence of the industry but to state the facts and allow you to judge and make your own conclusions. I read the article in the July 2008 edition of Creativiti titled ‘The Film Industry: A documentation of the African Experience’ by Parselelo Kantai and in as much as what he said was true to some extent, I couldn’t help but shake my head.

The premiere of Ayo Makun's (popularly known as A.Y) premiere held on Sunday at the Imax Cinema, Lekki and what an eventit was. Im talking about the event surrounding the movie.

GENEVIEVE NNAJI'S 'LION HEART' SNAPPED UP BY NETFLIX!

Image
Nollywood actress Genevieve Nnaji's directorial debut  'Lion Heart' has been snapped up by Netflix who own the international rights. This is  Netflix’s first film from Nigeria, and I must say I am mighty proud of her and for Netflix to do this is huge.. both for her and for the industry!  Over the last few years even though we have had our films on the platform, it was never as a Netflix Original. I believe now practitioners in the industry know it is possible and hopefully we see more movies from Nigeria on the platform. Then why am I not surprised that Genevieve has achieved this? Over the years, while having the opportunity to speak with her,
