10 Things That Happen When You Die (According To Nollywood)

$

0

1. Your spirit will LITERALLY leave your body.

It will sit up, stand up, look at your body, look around and then walk off looking confused.

2. In some cases (Mount Zion movies) you will be given a tour of heaven and hell and then sent back to Earth because “it’s not your time”.

Even the Grim Reaper makes mistakes.

3. If it’s a really depressing movie, you’ll be insulted by an elderly angel and sent straight to hell immediately after the tour.

Because you were actually a terrible person when you were alive and the angel just really wanted to let you know this before sending you off to eternal torment.

4. You’ll be told the identity of the person that killed you.

Because in Nollywood, no one dies of natural causes. 99% percent of the people that die were definitely murdered.

5. Sometimes you’re given the chance to pick between going straight to heaven OR going back to Earth as a ghost to haunt the person that killed you.

Because gone are the days when vengeance was for the Lord.

6. If you choose to become a ghost, the clothes you died in will be taken from you and you’ll be given a white flowing gown.

The official Nollywood ghost uniform.

7. Also, you’ll be given a LOT of white powder for your face and cotton wool to stuff in your nostrils.

Because being a ghost isn’t scary enough. You also have to look like you have leprosy.

8. You’ll get the chance to torment the life of the person responsible for your early demise by appearing to them from time to time and turning the lights on and off in their house.

Nothing scarier (more annoying) than flickering lights.

9. You will torment this person until they confess to what they’ve done after which they’ll commit suicide. Only when this happens will you find peace.

Your work as a vengeful ghost is done.

10. You will then proceed to go to heaven.

Regardless of the fact that you just exacted revenge and that God said we shouldn’t.

4 Landmarks Familiar To Every Lagosian

1. The National Arts Theatre

Built during the military regime of Olusegun Obasanjo and designed with the exterior made to look like a military hat, the National Arts Theatre was completed in 1976 in preparation for the 1977 Festival of Arts And Culture (FESTAC). It has a 5000-seater main hall with a collapsible stage and 2 capacity cinema halls. In 2010, Olusegun Obasanjo announced that there were plans to privatize the theatre and on the 30th of December 2014, it had been sold to a Dubai-based conglomerate for $40 Million dollars. This caused much controversy but like pretty much all the outrageous stuff that has happened in this country in the last few years, people got over it.

2. The Welcome To Lagos Statue

Commissioned under the administration of Colonel Raji Rasaki and designed by Bodun Shodeinde in 1991, the sculpted three chiefs was built to welcome people coming into Lagos state and stood over 12 ft tall. It stood until Nigerians burnt it down in 2004 because they insisted that the statue was full of juju and was the cause of the accidents that were happening around it. It was rehabilitated and moved to it’s present location along Epe only for people to burn it down AGAIN during the fuel subsidy sage in 2012. I am tired of Nigerians.

3. Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS)

Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) is a 35.8- acre ceremonial ground (originally called Race Course). It was constructed over the site of an abandoned race rack (which is why it was called race course). The entrance to the square has giant sculptures of 4 white horses above the gate and 7 red eagles. The square has a capacity of 50,000 which has housed a lot of historical events like Nigeria’s independence celebration which took place on the 1st of October 1960 at which the prime minister Tafawa Balewa gave a speech.

4. The Third Mainland Bridge

Opened in 1990 by the then president Ibrahim Babangida, The Third Mainland bridge is the longest of the 3 bridges (Eko and Carter) connecting Lagos island to the mainland. It was the longest bridge in Africa until 1996 until the 6th October bridge in Cairo, Egypt was completed. It measures about 11.8 km in length. If you live on the Island and work on the mainland or vice versa, then you’ve definitely passed this bridge and experienced the insane traffic on it.

1. “You’re so skinny, do you even eat?”

No. I survive on water and oxygen.

Just…shut up. Like, shut up.

5. “Your stomach is so flat it’s like a table”

Come and draw on it now. Oya, come.

6. “Why are you exercising? Do you want to disappear?”

Because they told you exercise is for only fat people abi?

You should just keep quiet. So because I am skinny means I have a career in modelling abi?

8. “But why are you so skinny?”

Like, why? Just answer me.

9. “You should be eating more”

You should be minding your business.

10. For women: “Don’t worry, when you get pregnant you’ll become fatter”

Who asked you?

11. For men: “Don’t worry, when you get married you’ll become fatter”

Can you mind your business?

We Decided To Ask About Your Favorite Nigerian Actors From The 90’s And Here’s What We Found

$
0
0

1. Regina Askia

One time Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria, Regina Askia successfully transitioned from modelling to acting and gave us breath taking performances in movies like Full Moon and Most Wanted. We found out that she got married, moved to America with her family and is now a registered nurse.

2. Susan Patrick

Susan Patrick lit our screens up when she played the title role in “Sakobi the Girl”. She was one of the Nollywood A-listers in her day but her career kind of went off track when her husband died in 2006. She tried breaking back into the industry later on but just couldn’t. Sad.

3. Sandra Achums

Sandra was a legit leading lady in the 1990’s starring in hits like Domitilla, Deadly Affair and Ashanti (LOL!). We found out that she gave up the up the life of fame for matrimony and now only pops up in the news when she’s having a new baby.

4. Ernest Obi

Ernest Obi was an actor and sometimes director known for movies like Love Crime, Daytime Lovers and Italian Deal. He suddenly vanished from the public eye and we found out that things haven’t been so rosy for him. APPARENTLY, his ex-wife accused him of impregnating his step-daughter several times and subjecting her to countless abortions. WHAT THE HELL FAM?!!!!!!!!!!!

5. Saint Obi

The dictionary definition of Nollywood leading man, Saint Obi was on all our screens playing leading roles in movies like Candle Light and Sakobi the Snake Girl. We all thought he quit the business when he stopped showing up in movies but he said himself that he was still active. When asked why he wasn’t in anything recent, he said that even though he gets a lot of movie role offers, he turns them down because of their quality. We’re not saying that it’s a lie but we’re saying that it sounds LIKE a lie.

6. Charles Okafor

Known for movies like Sting, World of Riches and End of The Wicked, Charles Okafor was a major presence in Nollywood but has been in anything in recent times. When asked why, he said that he has found Jesus and therefore can’t just be in any script that doesn’t give a positive message. We hope he’s happy.

7. Shan George

Light skinned beauty, Shan George was known for movies like Outkast (that was really infamous for all its nudity), Thorns of Rose and Welcome to Nollywood. After an attempt at a music career (remember that her abomination of a song? LOL!) she attempted to make a comeback by starring in a terrible movie named “Prada” about female footballers that was so terrible NO ONE saw it in cinemas so they sold it to Silverbird who broke it down into episodes and tried to pass it off as a series. It was still terrible.

8. Eucharia Anunobi

Who could possibly forget fabulous Eucharia and her batshit crazy fashion sense (remember her makeup and eyebrows?! LOL)? She was fabulous in movies like Abuja Connection, Dorathy My Love and Glamour Girls. Eucharia left the movie business to become an Evangelist. The only thing funny about this is that she still makes up like an ancient chinese demon. LOL!

9. Hanks Anuku

Hanks Anuku was Nollywood’s bad boy. No literally, he played the role of the ‘bad boy’ in EVERY movie. He also almost always played a Nigerian who went to school in America and just got back. Nollywood stereotypes are the worst. He was in movies like Men on the hard way, Wanted Alive and Bitter Honey. Last we heard of him, he had relocated to Ghana and become an official Ghanaian. When asked why, he cited Nigeria’s seemingly eternal economic crisis as the reason. We feel your pain, Hanks. Also there was that time he was accused of giving his wife AIDS though he said that wasn’t true sha.

10. Ndidi Obi

Remember her? How could you not?! She was the lead in one of the most iconic Nollywood movies of all time, Nneka the Pretty Serpent. Problem is that since then, she hasn’t been in much stuff. We did some digging and found out that in 2013, she became an official in her church. Good for you, Ndidi.

11. Francis Duru

Star of the epic movie, Rattlesnake, he vanished from the public eye. We know he’s married happily with kids but we don’t know exactly what he’s up to.

12. Ernest Asuzu

Having been in movies like Royal War and Campus Queen,  Ernest Asuzu disappeared from the public eye while being involved in a lot of controversies that led to rumours about his sanity. We heard that he found Jesus. Good for him.

13. Obot Etuk

It has been said that that Obot Etuk was the queen of supporting roles that played supporting roles long enough to convince people that she was leading lady material. Rumor has it that she gave up on the movie business when she realized she would never be among the A-listers. No one has seen her since.

14. Hilda Dokubo

Hilda Dokubo could cry!Jesus! She was damn good at it too. If you need proof, checkout this screenshot of her official Wikipedia photo.

HER OFFICIAL WIKIPEDIA PHOTO IS OF HER CRYING! LMAO! Anyways, she was in awesome movies like End of the wicked and Light and Darkness. She hasn’t been in much over the last decade but we did find out that she played a supporting role in the 2015 movie, Stigma and this role won her an Africa Movie Academy Award.

2. Cameras with film

Remember when you would take a couple of pictures and then wait weeks to find out if they were fine or not? LOL

3. The Disc Man

These things were so bulky ehn. They couldn’t even fit in your pocket. You had to hold them in your hand. Chai.

4. VHS Cassette Tapes

Remember how the tape would get dirty and you would have to literally clean it with spirit. Remember how, when you rent a tape, you would have to rewind it to the beginning and you would close your eyes so you don’t see any part of the movie that would spoil it for you. We suffered sha oh.

5. When there was no Netflix

To watch your favorite show, you had to catch it on TV. If you missed it, it was gone forever.

6. When there were no smart phones and you had to record songs from the speaker of radios.

If someone talks by mistake during your ‘recording session’, the whole thing is ruined.

7. When TVs didn’t have remote controls.

Every time you wanted to change the channel or raise the volume, you had to walk to the TV.

8. When phones didn’t have QWERTY keyboards.

Seriously. If a Nigerian woman likes you ehn, she can be as obvious and shameless as Oga Dino Melaye showing off his musical skills.

“A je kun iya ni…” Okay, you get the point sha.

Oya sit down and take notes.

When a Nigerian woman is sending you signals, you should see all or some of these things:

1. When you’re talking about sports and she’s looking at you like this:

If she’s NOT normally into sports, odds are she’s not really interested in what you’re saying but just the fact that you’re talking.

2. If she calls you “big head”, “mumu boy” a couple times a day, it’s really reverse psychology.

It’s not an insult, it’s more of an endearment. Just insert “my” before the “big head” and “mumu boy”.

3. She’ll do funny things at you with her eyes.

She’ll try not to be too obvious with the winking thing. She’ll fail woefully at it.

4. She’ll laugh at everything you say.

Like, not AT you sha. More of with you. Or because of you. But she’ll really find everything you say HI.LA.RI.O.US!

5. She’ll sha be touching you.

But not like in a creepy way. More like in a “ooo, let me see your watch. The strap is sooo smoooth” kind of way.

6. She’ll lean on your shoulders, play with your face, poke your stomach…

…you sha get. Think: Winnie the Pooh and his good friend Christopher Robin, where she is Christopher Robin. She’ll want to play with you like a teddy bear. Odds are she might have even named her teddy bear after you.

7. She’ll ask you, a hundred times a day, if you’ve eaten.

It is not only a Nigerian mother thing. Your physical welfare is her utmost concern.

8. She’ll give you a full frontal hug.

A complete full frontal hug with two arms around you, not just one.

9. However, if you find that you are not sure how to tell the signals she is giving you, then odds are she ISN’T. Abort Mission! Repeat: ABORT MISSION!
