"I only want to see a better Nigeria. It doesn't have to be Peter Obi. I'm not looking for someone from my tribe, but for a candidate who has Nigerians at heart and can move the country forward, not one step forward and ten steps backward. So far, I haven't seen any better candidate than Peter Obi in this election. The truth is that governance doesn't affect only one tribe or region, it affects everyone." - Nollywood actor, Stan Nze.

“One of men’s responsibilities in this life is to take care of women. When you take care of your woman, you prosper. I am not against equality or a woman being richer than me but if my wife had an estate I would still prefer us living in the house I built, pay the children school fees and buy foodstuffs” - Nollywood Actor Ibrahim Chatta

“I’m angry because of you Nigerians, not because of our politicians, because they have already shown us that they do not care about us. As Nigerians, go and collect your PVCs, that is the only noise we need right now.” — Nollywood Actor Emeka Ike.

"Life is generally easier for female than it is for male. It's not that Nollywood doesn't pay, but actors have a lot of bills to settle. It pained me when John Okafor (Mr Ibu) fell ill before he eventually passed away. While we were trying to raise funds for his treatment, some people on social media kept asking, 'Where is all the money he made from acting?' They didn't understand the realities of the profession. I didn't even know he had married more than one wife then." — Veteran Nollywood actor, Bob-Manuel Udokwu.

Veteran Nollywood Actor, Chief Chiwetalu Agu turns 70 today. His professional career began not in film but on television, where he appeared in NTA Channel 8 Enugu's soap opera 'Ikoro' and later in 'Ripples', playing the memorable character 'Chief Abunna'. His usage of specific language slangs, phrases or clichés in many films has made him uniquely a household name in Nigeria and among Nollywood fans in general.

HILARIOUS: President Trump on his malfunctioning teleprompter: “And that was not part of the script because I don’t really have a script because this thing doesn’t work. It’s appropriate, the one on my right is slightly better than the one on my left. The one on my left is a waste of time. It’s a little bit like politics.”

“If Nigeria Were Divided Today, Northern Nigeria Would Become The Poorest Region. Poverty And Hunger Would Destroy Us In The North. That Is Why, They Do Not Want Biafra To Emerge And Continue To Insist On One Nigeria. Yet, Even With One Nigeria, The North Is Still Destroying The Country Back. Across Northern Nigeria, You Can Hardly Find a Single Company Employing More Than 500 People. The Same Applies To My Home State Of Borno.” ~ Northern Content Creator IB Maiva

Odunlade Adekola didn’t entertain people for years just to be downplayed because of one popping actor. When many people were obsessed with American movies, he was one of the pioneers who helped change the mindset toward Nollywood. He put in the work, built the audience, and carried the industry on his back at a time when it wasn’t as respected. Odunlade walked so Ibrahim Chatta could run.

Nigeria govt keeps proving Ojukwu & Nnamdi kanu right always. Today they excluded Igbos from history book. Reason some of us will never carry one Nigeria on our head. No one can ever be more one Nigeria than Nnamdi Azikiwe yet Nigeria paid him back with genocide of his people.
