10 Lies Nollywood Film Makers Sells to Us......!!!!

Nollywood films satisfy their fans through entertainment, education and motivation; but most of their scenes seem to be fake. Most of what they present to us in some of the scenes are mostly unrealistic and sometimes too predictable. For example, will a Yoruba movie be completed without the visit to any Baba?

All we watch is all about money rituals, witches, and wizards. Some of the films don’t portray the truth people want and that is why some people lost their interest of watching Nollywood movies and switch to foreign movies.

The education aspects in film are not featured nowadays. Anybody can just sit down and form a story line then put it in acting without proper editing. In fact, some of the popular songs by musicians are used as story line, which has no message for the viewers. The story line of the past seems better than this present one. The video quality is another problem the Nollywood films are facing. Some of these movies are not clear enough to watch due to the picture quality and recording.

Here are some of the things which we watch on Nollywood film that are not true.

1. Recently, I watched a film where the armed robbers 

attacked a chief’s house.

The armed robbers just appeared in the room. Nobody knows how they entered through the gate. If we have to relate that with what is happening in real life, the armed robbers will have to ask the victim to open the door and if he refuses then they will break in. Another thing that surprises me is that they will have to cock the modern gun two to three times before shooting and after the shot which is always at the chest, there is no sign of blood stain on the victim.

2. The accident scene is also a part which is very funny to me.

Imagine, a man was just driving then a spirit appeared on the road and the man was unable to control the steering then park at the side of the road. The next thing we are going to see is blood all over his body.

3. Witches run mad or die when confessing.

Why is it that any time the witches in Nollywood films are confessing they either run mad or die? This is very common in the Nollywood film, when you see a witch confessing and after the confession they either die or run mad. We have heard about so many wicked ones who confess their wicked act and nothing happened to them in our society. Even after the confession some of them work for God. So, what message are they passing across to us? After confession is death? These are some of the untrue scenes in Nollywood films.

4. If the police in Nollywood film want to arrest a suspect, why are they so aggressive and more efficient?

There is a common saying “police are your friend”. But that is not the case in Nollywood. When they want to arrest, they take it as if they want to arrest a criminal by pointing the gun to the suspect and treat him badly before getting to the station.

5. I will also mention the aspect of flash back in Nollywood movies.

Flashbacks are always in black and white. It is only in Nollywood movies that will show Yinka Quadri ten years ago making phone call at the side of the road and a bill board close to him inscribe “Vote Buhari 2015”. And their future scenes are always between 2 to 15 years after.

6. Also, the hospital scene aspect in Nollywood film looks unprofessional.

They will just find a small room and a small bed nothing more. Then, the only thing the doctors in Nollywood movies will use to treat a patient with heart failure, typhoid, malaria etc is placing the stethoscope on their chest and that’s all. It is also common in a police station scene whereby just one room and a desk is used as office.

7. Grandmothers are wicked.

Nollywood movies also make us believe in most of their films that grandmothers are wicked, in particularly the husband’s mother. In Nollywood movies, the grandmothers are always the ones that do evil to their son’s wife if he refuses to marry the wife of choice. So, they have made it known to the female youth that are yet to marry, that their husbands’ mothers are wicked. This is not true.

 

8. Traditional idol worshippers are evil.

80% of the Nollywood movies that I have watched, the traditional idol worshippers are the only ones who carry out evil act. They condemn this particular religion in most of their films. In Nigeria, we have three major types of religion, the Christian, Muslim, and the traditional worshippers. So, they should not condemn any of them, because they all have their way of worship

9. Illness are caused by curses.

Barrenness, mental, malaria etc illnesses are caused by curses in Nollywood films. So, they advise people not to seek medical attention but rather visit the native doctors for help. This has polluted so many minds that they don’t believe in going to the hospital for medical if they have any type of these illness because they watch it on their home video.

10. The only way to get rich is through rituals.

In most of the Nollywood films, the only way to get rich in life is through rituals. 99% of people who are poor in their movies later end up doing rituals in order to get rich.

In conclusion, Nollywood industry in Nigeria should work on their storylines. Script writers should improve on their research and they should provide enough funding for their movies. Also, genuine talented actors should be made use of in their films in order to provide better production for their fans. They should also give more suspense to their movies so as to hold the interest of the viewers.

10 Signs That You Are Not The Only Woman In His Life.........

We’d all like to be the only woman in the man of our dream’s life. We’d all like to enjoy our relationship without the niggling worry that we might not actually be the only woman. A lot of the time it sounds ridiculous to even entertain the idea that our man might be juggling us with someone else. Unfortunately, sometimes he is; sometimes we fall into the trap set by a player who has juggled women and relationships before. If you’re worried that you aren’t the only girl who has stolen your man’s heart, let’s take a look at the top 10 signs that you are not the only girl in his life.

He Doesn’t Like Committing To Plans In Advance

Each time you suggest doing something or going somewhere, he gives you a maybe answer.

“Hey! Do you fancy going to the cinema next Friday?”

“Maybe.”

“Hey! Do you fancy going to the ball game next Monday?”

“Maybe.”

“Hey! Do you want to come shopping with me on Saturday? I’ll make it fun!”

“Possibly.”

If you press him, it’s likely that he doesn’t even have an excuse why he can’t commit to a date. He’s just “not sure” and “can’t remember” when he’s busy and when he isn’t. It basically means that he’s keeping his options open.

He’s A Mystery Wrapped In An Enigma

 Sure, the brooding, mysterious types are attractive at first. But once you get to know a guy and start dating him, the mystery should fall away as he opens up to you and tells you his name, his age and where he lives. Et cetera.

If your man is still a mystery to you even after several dates, you should take this as a warning sign. You should by now have found certain things about him; certain things he was only too happy to reveal. If he’s keeping his cards close to his chest, be careful.

He Has LOTS Of Female Friends

Of course, your man is allowed to have friends of the opposite sex and you certainly shouldn’t tell him to abandon them now that you’re in his life. It isn’t right for anyone to suddenly abandon their friends just because they’ve entered a relationship.

But if he has TONNES of female friends who are constantly draped around his arms in Facebook photographs, you should probably be a little bit concerned. The more women he knows, the more likely it is that you aren’t the only one close to him.

You’re His Friend To Everyone Else

To you, you’re his girlfriend and he’s your boyfriend. Privately, he possibly acknowledges this and agrees with it.

But when he’s referring to you to other people, he says that you’re just a friend.

This is a huge telltale sign that a man is playing with your heart and stringing you along. If he can’t bring himself to admit to the world that you’re an item, it usually means that it’s because he’s got a few other women in his life who are “just friends.”

There Is A Lack Of Public Intimacy

If you’re the only woman in his life, he would surely have no problems kissing and touching you in public. In fact, he’d probably initiate it all.

But if he’s got you and someone else in his love life, the chances are that he isn’t too keen on getting it on in full view of everyone. If he bristles at public affection and never initiates even a peck on the cheek, you’re right to be concerned that he’s trying to make sure he doesn’t get caught out.

He Does Weird Things

When somebody is having an affair, they can become agitated and do weird things. This might include refusing to answer their cell phone or keeping it switched off whenever they’re around you. It might mean refusing to let you use their laptop or go through their phone. And when you ask him how his day went, he might shrug and just say “it was okay” without going into any details. None of this is normal behaviour and should be seen as a red flag.

He Comes To See You …

… But rarely lets you go to see him.

The fact that his place seems to always be out of bounds could be down to the fact that it’s being decorated, as he says; or it could be down to the fact that he has a woman living there who he naturally doesn’t want you to see!

If he still hasn’t given you his home address, he clearly doesn’t want you in his neighbourhood where you could be seen … or where you might see someone who upsets you.

You Still Haven’t Met His Mom

Normally, guys love introducing their girlfriends to their mothers. And naturally, a mother is always desperate to meet the latest girl their son is dating.If you’ve been seeing your man for a few weeks and he still hasn’t suggested that you meet his mom (and dad), it’s time to make the suggestion yourself. If he stalls and says it’s too soon, you should definitely start to worry.

He Flirts With His Friends

Some guys are naturally flirtatious. But when a man is in a relationship, it’s his duty to flirt with you and youonly.

If you catch him flirting with his female friends often, you should be a little bit cautious. It could be a sign that he flirts with anyone who he is attracted to, and it could mean that it isn’t just you he’s gone a little bit further with.

His Friend Is Not Gender-Specific

If he mentions that he’s going to see “a friend” today but doesn’t specify who it is – or that it’s a male – you should be a little bit suspicious. Guys who have nothing to hide will come out and tell you which friend they are seeing. But if a guy is trying to hide another girl from you, he won’t tell you that he’s going to see her; and he won’t even tell you that the person he’s going to meet is ashe.

5 things that happen to your body when you stop having sex................

Going from having regular sex to having no sex can come with a few side effects. Sex is like a muscle and if you don’t exercise it then it can lead to long-term issues.

Because there are so much amazing benefits to having sex, there will, no doubt, be adverse effects when you do stop.

Here are five of them below.

1. Erectile Dysfunction

Studies have shown that regular sex is a great way to improve erectile prowess in men. So, suddenly taking a sex break will cause erectile dysfunctions to crop up.

2. Immune system suffers

If you’re having a break from getting down and dirty then you may be more prone to illness and infections as your immune system becomes more vulnerable. That’s because sex triggers the body’s natural defences and boosts the functioning of the immune system.

3. Lower libido

This might not happen for everyone, but choosing to say ‘no’ to sex can very likely cause your libido to drop. The longer you go without it, the less your body yearns for it.

4. More stress

Sex does a lot to relax and calm you, so when you stop getting it on, you might feel a bit more stressed out and unable to find an outlet.

5. You might get dumber

Some people believe that abstinence can help you focus, become more productive and generally more clever but there’s no scientific evidence to back that up. However researchers have found that sex can actually make you smarter. Some time spent in the sack helps to boost the growth of brain cells in the hippocampus. So, quitting sex can cause you to lose that extra intelligence boost.
