Finally the celebrity of the week section has been changed to celebrity of the month, so we announce the celebrity of the month at the beginning of every month.
NOLLYWOOD PART 1
Nollywood is the name of the nigerian movie industry. the story of
nollywood started in 1992 when "LIVING IN BONDAGE" was created the
movie sold more than 500,000 copies in its first week, because of its
incredible success many more movies have been created since then and
it has now established itself as a multibillion dollar industry.Nollywood is
notorious for making low quality movies, an average movie is made in 10
days and sells about 50,000 copies. Most Nigerians lament at the poor
quality of the movies, and sometimes make the mistake of comparing
Nollywood to Hollywood and Bollywood forgetting that both industries
are at least 50 years older than Nollywood. Nollywood is not run by
billionaires or by the government so critics should bear in mind that high
quality movies such as those made in Hollywood, it is just a matter of
time Hollywood didn't start at its present level.
