Our book club, WeREAD prefers  reading more books by Nigerian authors than foreign authors. 

My younger sister, Mrs. Stella Unah is the Numero Uno of reading with over 100 books read so far. She reads novels like she is watching movies, relating with the characters in the stories. She is the Chief Librarian of WeREAD Book Club.

Unlike many of the women in Nigeria, she prefers reading to gossiping.
She can read four books within 30 days.

If everyone in Nigeria can read like her, majority of Nigerian authors will be giving thanks to Almighty God for our books will be selling like books in America, Britain, Japan and other countries with highly literate people who love 💕 to read.

I started WeREAD in 2022 as an affiliate of Bookshop.org to support local bookstores in America and I am happy to say that over US$40 million have been raised so far.

Raised For Local Bookstores

Last month of August, the novels we chose to read included "Influence of A King" by Titi Horsfall; multiple award winning novel, "Purple Hibiscus" by the famous Chimamanda Ngozi-Adichie and "Yellow-Yellow" by Kaine Agary that won the Nigeria Prize for Literature in 2008. The first debut novel to do so in the history of the biggest prize for literature in Africa.

https://www.thenigeriaprizes.org/profile/kaine-agary

The exciting romantic novel about the impressionable and vulnerable biracial teenage girl,  Zilayefa, aka "Yellow-Yellow", daughter of a young Ijaw woman Ina Binaebi and a Greek sailor, Plato Papadopoulos in the Niger Delta of Nigeria during the dictatorship of a sadistic military Head of State is highly entertaining. It is one the best coming-of-age novels I have read so far. 

It is a romantic drama in prose waiting for a good film adaptation that will be a box office success and it is the kind of movie Netflix should commission.

Wale Ojo

I see the accomplished multiple award winning actor Wale Ojo playing the romantic role of the retired Naval Admiral Kenneth Alaowei Amalayefa, the sugar daddy of Zilayefa; excellent beautiful Nollywood diva, Iretiola Doyle as Sisi and the fast rising young pretty Uche Montana as Lolo.

Iretiola Doyle

Uche Montana

I don't know any biracial Nigerian actress under 20 that can play the leading role of Yellow-Yellow. We have to do international casting call for her. 

WeREAD powered by Bookshop, https://bookshop.org/shop/Weread. 

WeREAD is for the revival of the reading culture in Nigeria and the rest of Africa for the appreciation of literature with special focus on books by African authors.

Women Disgracing Women

Women Disgracing Women

Believe it or not, women are their own worst enemies online and offline.

Every day I receive requests mostly from Caucasian women on Instagram and once I open them to view to accept or reject their requests, I am facing naked women showing me vaginas. And asking for sex.

Of course inviting you to sex cams. I have deleted and reported dozens of them. 

On Facebook, majority of them are  shameless Nigerian girls and women who are online prostitutes. 

Now, it is no longer decent to watch the music videos of Nigerian #Afrobeats singers, because they are fully engaged in the Sexploitation of young women dancing half naked in different simulations of sex.

Video vixens are prostitutes.

Of course, anyone displaying and portraying herself as a sex object is a PROSTITUTE or COMMERCIAL SEX WORKER.

Any younger or older woman in.relationshop for the financial benefits is a PROSTITUTE.

These debased and shameless women online and offline are Disgracing Women and Womanhood.

That is why Men don't respect Women.

Nigerian women are selling for $800 as sex slaves in Libya.

I paid $800 for the release of a 16 - year old secondary school girl trafficked to Libya from Benin in Edo State of Nigeria after 90 days in captivity in 2016 whilst I was still busy with the principal photography of my documentary film, "Lagos in Motion". 

A beautiful decent young woman told me that she will not join  Nollywood, because majority of the actresses are prostitutes using Nollywood as their camouflage. 

The UN Women should declare a global campaign against the Sexploitation of Women in movies, TV series and music videos.

Women must understand that they have more to offer the society than their sexuality. 

The power of Woman is in her brains and not in her loins.

I broke up with two beautiful young women, because they could not abstain from sex for one month. 

WOMEN MUST STOP DISGRACING AND DEGRADING WOMEN.

I have been creating NFT #series on #women showing their challenges in life from the V for Vivian series to THE MATRIX WOMAN series and today I started the Brave Girls of the Night series.

I call them Storytelling NFTs.
The "Scars of Vivian" on the true life cases of women in abusive relationships, failed marriages and domestic violence is most likely going to have a film adaptation for international release. An art collector of NFT artworks has selected it with four othes which are among my most special NFTs, including "Ethereum Rising".
I am creating these NFTs with the film adaptations on my mind.

Sex, Netflix and Showmax

Sex, Netflix and Showmax 💕💋💥

Every Nigerian man who can afford to buy condoms monthly can afford paying for Netflix and Showmax

I have done marketing family planning methods, including selling condoms for two years when I did on the spot market surveys of all the major markets in Lagos State, including the Mile 12 market on the mainland.

Do you know that majority of Nigerian men spend more than N20, 000 monthly on condoms? 

I mean each one spends more than N20, 000 on condoms monthly.

How much is the monthly subscriptions for Netflix and Showmax in Nigeria?

Oh! I forgot, Nigerian men need more sex than watching Netflix or Showmax? 

Seriously?

Wrong.

Nigerian men watch more TV than having sex.

How many hours do they spend on sex every day?

Of course, majority of us spend more hours watching movies and series than having sex weekly.

Netflix, Showmax and Amazon Prime Video can have more than 40 million subscribers in Nigeria by 2025 if they use social marketing strategies for their advertising and marketing campaigns. 

Static billboards and banners on the streets are not the best methods of advertising in Nigeria. And using celebrities have failed in several cases for the promotion of movies at the box office. 

Several movies featuring Nollywood stars with millions of followers on Instagram have bombed. 

Netflix acquired a movie by a popular celebrity with over 50 million followers on Instagram, but I doubt if even 100, 000 of her followers subscribed to Netflix to watch her movie.

If you can sell condoms, then you can sell subscriptions for Netflix and Showmax.
