NOLLYWOOD AT THE CINEMAS!

-
I went to the cinemas yesterday and was so proud to see over three Nollywood films on display for all to come watch and counting!  By the time I sat to watch the feature presentation, I saw more Nollywood trailers being run... on the pristine screens of Silverbird Cinemas!  Lol! For a long time, Silverbird Cinemas has had a, shoul d I say, love-hate relationship with films from the local industry.  When they first set up shop, it was all Hollywood all the way... the few local producers that tried to get their films on, where shown the door, for whatever reason! That was until Stephanie Okereke's 'Through the Glass' literally broke the glass ceiling! Since then, we have been seeing alot more local productions; several even out- selling (I am told!) the popular Hollywood releases!  The thing is Africans, Nigerians specifically like their own thing o! Well, you know what they say about 'When you go black...' Hahaha! Am I sounding politically incorrect? Right now, I really couldnt be bothered! lol! Let me revel in the fact that this month I'm going to be able to watch 'Black Gold', 'Tango with Me', 'Damage', 'Sinking Sands' 'Bent Arrows', 'Ghetto Dreams' and many other productions all on the big, hallowed, pristine screens of the S'Bird! Yes! *pumps fist! Are they annoyed I said this? They shouldnt be! Rather they should see this as free advert for them. Anyway na me get my mouth....Its been a long time coming, jor! Lol! Catcha lay-rrra!

I always say one thing... this is the wrong era to behave like a jerk. The time when you could misbehave and get away with it is over. Thanks to cell phones and social media, we have seen a slew of incidents in recent times where a person's bad behaviour has been recorded and they end up being shamed, sacked from their jobs or even arrested if the act is considered criminal. There is a particular family I came across earlier in the year on social media - The McClures. They consist of a White American Dad Justin , his Nigerian wife Ami and their adorable children; twins Ava & Alexis and little son Jersey . I actually became aware of them first because of the twins who have a burgeoning modeling career and a popular Youtube channel. I love them because the kids are cute and they as a family are quite funny and entertaining. So you can imagine my shock when I woke up a couple of days ago to see that the father had been accused of making racist tweets about Black peopl
