“I started acting before Nollywood was created in 1992. I first appeared in The Merchant of Venice in 1962 at the age of 15. I’m the only person who has done a film that made white people fly in to Nigeria just to interview me.” — Pete Edochie
Pete Edochie used oji Igbo (kola nut) to offer prayers and blessings for Bae U Barbie after their conversation.
More than an interview, it ended with a heartfelt traditional Igbo prayer and blessings through the sacred kola nut.

A few days ago, I received unsolicited offers of $3 million, along with an invitation to a confidential meeting in London, from a highly placed individual whom I have been informed is connected to #Nigerian President Bola #Tinubu. I believe these offers were an attempt to persuade my firm to end our campaign concerning President Tinubu's alleged #heroin-trafficking records.
I refused the offers, immediately preserved screenshots of the exchanges, and forwarded all the evidence to the U.S. Department of Justice (@TheJusticeDept). It remains shocking to me that, despite the @FBI and #DEA's heroin-trafficking allegations concerning Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, @CNN , the @washingtonpost, and the @nytimes have never reported on this shocking story.
It seems The Washington Post’s slogan, “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” applies only when The Washington Post is scrutinizing President @realDonaldTrump and @Republicans. When it concerns the @JoeBiden Administration blocking the release of drug-trafficking documents concerning an African president, there is silence. True journalism in America is dead.
