i don’t even want to imagine the emotional torture their family members and friends are going through.
“Are they still alive?” “How are they faring?” “Are they eating?” “How are they surviving? sleeping?”
The fear of not knowing what’s really happening and if they’re even still alive
Ah omo, T*nubu you’re the biggest failure this country has seen
This is now their 28th Night in the den of terrorists!! 28 Nights! That’s 4 weeks! One Month!!! Ahhh!!!!!!!!!! God!!!!!! No shelter, no change of clothes, poor feeding, no safety, anxiety, molestation and abuse and different forms of emotional torture! God!!!😭😭
You have a special needs child and it alters EVERY aspect of your family life. Everything and everyone will make adjustments throughout their lives for that child.
The men are ALWAYS the first to shut down and even leave the woman with the kid. I have seen well over 50 cases. I have seen a bit of life in these not-so-few years on earth. I find it laughable that it is mostly men who are shouting against abortion from a moral high ground that they don’t understand.
I know of a neighbour then in Ikoyi, who yelled at his daughter who kept having crisis from Sickle Cell Disease saying “If you want to die, just die!”.
That’s sickle cell o, not to now talk of down syndrome, cerebral palsy, etc.
Approach these matters with humility o! Be careful!
@PHEDconnect@PHEDconnect isn’t Nvuigwe in band A. Why has the light been unstable for the past few days? Today, there’s hardly been any light, not since 11am, up till now. Can’t be buying 4.77 units for 1,000NGN and still experiencing this.
6pm(wat) on YouTube this evening, join me for the premiere of ONLY YOU
There’s no need searching, No one like our GOD!
Kindly spread the news and see you there!
After the premiere of The Trade, I got chatting with producers. I asked them why they didn’t just let Eric get away? He was the perfect villain. You’re rooting for him.
Guess what they replied? Nigeria and Nigerian board restrictions.
Another time, I was cast for a movie that ended being cancelled because the NPF refused to approve how the script portrayed them. It was either they shot it without NPF which was the soul of the plot (ie use any other uniform that doesn’t suggest the NPF, what’ll be the point?), or not shoot at all. They canceled.
The Nigerian creative industry is not just restricted by “obvious” factors… there’re things that go on behind the scenes that greatly stifle ideation.
In the movie Top Gun, the US Navy provided them access to the Ranger aircraft carriers, fighter jets, and ACTIVE-DUTY military pilots to perform the aerial stunts.
In Transformers, the production received massive logistical support. They provided them with helicopters, Raptors, and actual military bases to use as filming locations.
In Ironman, Marvel Studios was granted access an air force base and actual military aircraft to film the scenes where Tony Stark's experimental suit clashes with the US Air Force.
To mention but a few.
But in Nigeria, if you wear Camo as a civilian, you’ll witness wonders.
The state of this nation affects EVERYTHING. It ruins things in ways you can’t begin to imagine until you have skin in it.
You go outside to shoot, you have to deal with street louts. You have a script that touches major sectors, and you’ll have to seek approvals upon approvals, or risk your movie been banned after release.
If this series even remotely refers to a particular national body, and the plot becomes too real, it’ll only take one person who feels attacked to can it.
These people are not stupid. They’re also navigating Nigeria like everyone else.
Let’s be kinder with our criticism.
Don’t let APC media propaganda fool you oo!! APC doesn’t have the numbers ooo!! All na propaganda! Get your PVCs. We are kicking them out in the elections! Come out and vote!
