Water, electricity and good roads didn't get to your area/town, but election materials will get there.
They didn't forget you, they just don't care about your existence. 😝
My spirit was down this morning.
I read the account of two girls kidnapped along the Okene Abuja road and the terrible things done to them in captivity and it broke me.
One told her dad not to bother paying her ransom as she would kill her self when eventually released, that they have been r*pping her continuously for three days. They got angry and shot her while the dad was still listening.
The other was released after her ransom was paid but the trauma she faced (I can't bring myself to write about it) even psychiatrists are struggling to bring her around. She is in FCMC Kaduna now.
Are these stories not being told to Tinubu?
What about Remi that is a mother? Is she not hearing about it?
140-something people kidnapped in Kwara in February are still missing o 😢
My unpopular opinion is that Nigeria needs to stop! We need to pause and acknowledge the trauma we are living through. Unions need to go on strike. Everyone needs to take a week long moment of silence. Going on like nothing is happening, is inhumane and insane. Phew!
The success of COML and TBWG is mostly word of mouth.
Producers will have to become more strategic about their films.
And word of mouth is not the same thing as influencer marketing.
You need to identify your audience, make films for them, & target your marketing accordingly
Fans love to tell filmmakers that they're lazy with marketing, but the truth is that the audience will watch what they want to watch.
Your best bet is to make a good movie and beat the odds of the time slots alloted to you.
Good, valid points! But I'd argue that Kalu never communicated how he would've wanted to be loved. Maybe she would've made space cos she was quite drawn to him anyway.
Yes, she's flawed too. That babe, an empath, made Ezekiel lose his job, but she didn't flinch. Surprising.
My one wahala with how everyone looks at soluchi in “call of my life” is that she’s no saint.
She wanted to be loved the way she wanted to be loved I don’t think she showed love to at least Kalu the way Kalu would’ve have wanted to be loved.
I’m FOREVERRRRRRRR praying that I get my fairytale ending.. the dream career. the financial freedom. the friends. the family. the peace. the love... just everything that I truly & genuinely deserve
The idea or belief that a Nigerian filmmaker should have a (solid) fan base before making a movie or screening at the cinema is a great disservice to the art of filmmaking & Nollywood in general.
I love being a ray of sunshine. I don’t want to be in anybody’s life making it harder. If I ever am, cut me off. I’d rather be remembered for bringing peace, kindness, and good energy than for adding weight to someone’s shoulders.
We Remember Our Fallen Heroes Today.
Dear Igbo Nation, today marks 56 years since we tragically lost over 4.5 million Igbo brothers and sisters to the Nigerian–Biafran War. They gallantly fought and died so that we might live. 🕊️
Let's Retweet in their memory. 🙏
The worst reputation you can ever have is being someone who over promises and under delivers. Whether at work, in friendships, relationships or any situation where character comes into question. Your word needs to mean something.
I'm the same. I'm very sentimental. I do not feel shame nor am I afraid of vulnerability. But I've learned it's important to pay attention when the next person consistently shows you lack of reciprocity. As a person with depth you will be fundamentally unhappy in shallow waters and you are doing yourself a disservice by overstaying in those situations. I lingered for far too long in limerance with half assed lovers. It was when I completely released everyone who couldn't meet me where I was that I met my current boyfriend. We clicked instantly and he pursued me in a way I've never been pursued. He's incredibly attentive and expressive. There isn't a single emotional, spiritual, or physical need he does not meet for me.
Yes it's rare to find but you have to make space for it.
