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.

ORAH is the Opening Film of the 12th Annual Africa International Film Festival in Nigeria


Announcing the Opening Film: ORAH Opens AFRIFF 2023🎥

AFRIFF to open 12th Edition with Lonzo Nzekwe’s Powerful Crime Thriller ORAH  in keeping with the Festival’s Theme on “Indigenous 2.0 Global



October 26, 2023

The Africa International Film Festival (AFRIFF) has announced its 12th edition, happening from the 5th to the 11th of 2023, in Lagos, Nigeria. In keeping with the festival's tradition, AFRIFF’s Founder and Festival Director, Chioma Ude, has announced the film ORAH as its opening night movie, a bold step to drive home its theme for the 2023 edition of Indigenous 2.0 Global before the participating Nigerian and international movie enthusiasts who will grace the festival’s annual opening gala night.

ORAH is written and directed by acclaimed Nigerian/Canadian filmmaker Lonzo Nzekwe (Anchor Baby). Produced by Nzekwe, Floyd Kane (Diggstown), and Amos Adetuyi (The Boathouse), the film was shot in Canada and the Federal Republic of Nigeria in late 2022. Speaking in anticipation of the Festival,  Chioma Ude said,

“Filmmaking is evolving rapidly in Africa, with Nigeria at the forefront of the renaissance, and this year’s edition is designed to continue to reiterate the opportunities for African films and storytelling to reflect ‘global’ perspectives for the sustained success of more local films globally. We intend to continue to empower our storytellers to explore ideologies and techniques that connect with a larger global audience. ORAH is positioned as the open-night movie to drive this expectation.” 

A character-driven crime thriller, Orah showcases the story of a female taxi driver in Toronto embarking on a revenge tour to avenge the death of her son, who is brutally murdered by a high-profile Nigerian criminal in a drug trafficking operation. Starring Oyin Oladejo as Orah Madukaku (Star Trek: Discovery), additional cast members include Lucky Onyekachi Ejim (Kim’s Convenience) as Bami Hazar; Agape Mngomezulu as Tariq Hazar (The Parker Andersons); Morgan Bedard (Hard Rock Medical) as Eli Pope; Somkele Iyamah-Idhalama (Titans) as Lace; Oris Erhuero (We Were Once) as Agent Garuba; O.C. Ukeje (Brotherhood) as Agent Uche Odi; Femi Lawson (Because We Are) as Jimoh Sholola; and Christopher Seivright (Take Note) as Vincent Bailey.

Developed over the course of 11 years, director and screenwriter Lonzo Nzekwe was “very grateful to finally begin shooting with the talented cast and crew assembled and honoured to be able to shoot part of the film in Nigeria, which plays such a key role,” he shared during principal photography. In Nzekwe’s words, I set out to create a tragically gripping and gratifying crime thriller with a gritty look that gives the audience a visceral, authentic experience of the life of our hero and her journey to avenge the death of her son. The exceptional talent of the actors cast in each role truly brings the story to life.

Not only does the script offer a strong and smart female role model in the lead role, but the supporting characters are well-rounded with traits of real, everyday people drawn from diverse ethnic backgrounds and walks of life. I hope that ORAH’s themes of justice versus revenge, redemption, freedom, corruption, and family separation will have a lasting impact on its viewers and inspire them in a positive way. As a Nigerian-born Canadian filmmaker, I felt I was uniquely qualified to tell this story of an illegal immigrant who was smuggled into Canada and sold into sex trafficking at age 15 by her uncle.

The film was shot in and around Sudbury, Ontario, in the fall of 2022, with additional principal photography taking place in Lagos, Nigeria, in December 2022. With cinematography for ORAH by Ricardo Diaz (Subjects of Desire), production design by Mark Kowalsky (Frat Pack), costume design by Chantel Bedward (Stupid For You), editing by Marc Roussel (Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities), and music by Felipe Téllez (Tomorrow).

ORAH is produced by Circle Blue Entertainment and Freddie Films in association with IronFlix Inc., with the participation of Telefilm Canada, the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation (NOHFC), and ONCreates Film Fund. Level Film is the Canadian distributor.

Memories Are Forever


Memories Are Forever

When all have been said and done.

When they have come and gone.

As they always come and go every day.

Their footprints are always washed away.

But my memories of them linger longer 

And I will remember them forever.
