04:07she's always that fine babe dealing with a wicked mother-in-law or suspecting her billionaire husband

04:12of having a secret wife but this time it wasn't a movie real life while hollow entered the chart

04:18she was producing a film that involved a bold scene and before anyone could say cuts tragedy struck

04:25junior pope and some crew members lost their lives in the river and just like that nollywood's

04:30mourning turned into finger pointing before adama could even post her side of the story the actors

04:36guild of nigeria ag and moved like nigerian landlords when rent is overdue to issue the ban so

05:09storyline no longer made sense he was once the face of action-packed crime movies the goto villain who

05:15could pull off a menacing star without breaking a sweat but nollywood has a way of turning its back

05:23when things go south and before anyone knew it hanks anuku was banned from acting at first it

05:30didn't seem official there was no press conference no dramatic announcements but suddenly his name

05:35stopped appearing in movie credits producers stopped calling the man who once dominated the screen was

05:41now missing in action and the whispers started reports of erratic behavior substance abuse and mental

05:47hell struggles spread like wildfire people who once feared his on-screen characters now pitied the

05:54man himself then came the video in 2023 the one that sealed his fate hangs was seen roaming the street

06:01looking nothing like the smooth talking bad guy nollywood fans remembered the internet exploded was this

06:07real or was the just preparing for another tough role but nollywood had already made up his mind no one was

06:14willing to take the risk of casting him even when some colleagues like sean george defended him the

06:20industry had moved on by the time people realized that hanks anuku was truly banned from acting it was too

06:26late his legendary days were behind him and the nollywood that once embraced him had replaced him with new

06:33faces new villains new stories the cameras stopped running the script stopped coming and the action star who

06:41once ruled the industry was now just another name in nollywood's history books tonto dk tonto dk nearly

06:48received nollywood's version of a red card not for bath acting but for turning social media into a

06:54battlefield during her infamous 2017 divorce saga the agn wasn't ready for premium drama she was serving

07:01daily and decided it was time to put her on their watch list now divorce scandals in nollywood are nothing

07:40they issued a stern warning making it clear that if she didn't cool down she could be placed on an

07:46indefinite timeout in their eyes an actress should be known for her on-screen performances not for breaking

07:52the internet with daily buzz buzz but did tonto dk listen of course not she kept going to turn to tell

07:58her truth whether adrian liked it or not though the suspension never officially happened the tension

08:04was enough to make some filmmakers quietly back away or at least until the storm settled since the divorce

08:10tonto dk was not able to secure any significant role in the movie industry but as always told to

08:15bounce back nollywood or no nollywood she remained relevant expanding her brand taking over social media

08:21and proving that no matter what she wasn't going anywhere nkechi blessing nkechi blessing was banned

08:28from acting but let's be honest did she really care nollywood bands are supposed to humble people

08:34make them reflect and maybe even issue a teary apology video but nkechi she turned her ban into

08:41content in 2021 tampa decided they had had enough of nkechi's wala the actress known for her no filter

08:48attitude and back-to-back buzz buzz on social media was caught in a messy online fight with fellow actor

08:54lege miami the dragon was hotter than lego sun at 2 p.m insults were flying tables were shaking and

09:01before anyone could say cut tampa stepped in with a suspension nkechi blessing was officially banned from

09:08acting now in nollywood when they ban you you are supposed to go low-key maybe begs more or at least

09:14pretend to be remorseful and get a death of opposite instead of silence she gave them volume

09:22she continued her social media runs fired shots at tampa's leadership and let everyone know she

09:27wasn't going anywhere it was as if the ban filled her even more of course the ban had consequences some

09:34producers avoided working with her collaboration slowed down and her name wasn't showing up on posters

09:40as often but nkechi found a way to stay relevant g8 in 2010 8a least actors popularly known as g8

09:50which consists of genevive naji ramsi noah omotala jenadei candy jim ike and kemawa stella damasas

09:56richard moffordami joe and emeka ike were shown the red card by producers and marketers their crime

10:03wanting to cash out like premier league footballers at the time these actors were hotter than lego sun in

10:09march if a nollywood movie didn't have at least one of them was it even worth watching but their

10:15bank accounts were beginning to feel the impact of all those blockbuster performances and they decided

10:20it was time to increase their fees nollywood producers however reacted like nigerian parents

10:25when their child asked for a salary increase in their own father's business they said it was too much

10:31and promptly blacklisted them the ban shook nollywood like a bad network connection during a live stream

10:37how were producers going to survive without their biggest stars these were the faces that made

10:43people rush to buy v cds and traffic the controversy sparked plenty of debate some felt the actors

10:50were being greedy while others saw it as a battle for fair pay in an industry known for pain

10:55upcoming actors with exposure and bows of jollof rice but the g8 were not about to sit at home and

11:02start selling recharge cars they found ways to stay relevant some jumped into music others started

11:08businesses and a few crossed over to nollywood proving they were bigger than nollywood drama

11:14yabo ojo yabo was kicked out of nollywood's good books yes the industry's no-nonsense queen found

11:20herself blacklisted for speaking up when many wanted silence and in true yabo fashion she didn't just speak

11:26up she turned social media into a courtroom and went after anyone defending baba ijesha in his child

11:31molestation case morning afternoon and night she was online calling out to actors questioning the

11:36industry's silence and demanding justice as redentless activism made her a hero to many nigerians

11:42but to tampan the industry's governing body she had become a thorn in their side then came the

11:48decision tampa shut the door on her saying she was bringing disgrace to the industry not only was she

11:54blacklisted but the association also warned that any filmmaker who worked with her would face serious

12:00consequences to make things even more dramatic they extended the same punishments to inkechi

12:05blessing as if bunny one-up spoken actress wasn't enough yomi fabi yomi fabi the yoruba movie actor

12:13and filmmaker was banned from acting yes you read that right in fact if they could have banned him from

12:20holding a camera they probably would have the man woke up one morning decided to be the martin luther

12:25king june of nollywood and ended up being the most cancelled filmmaker of 2021 it all started when yomi

12:32in his infinite wisdom released a movie titled okoyabo nigerians took one look at the film and said ah

12:40this one don't pass also why because in the middle of a real life child molestation case that had the

12:47entire country in shock yumi thoughts you know what let's turn this into a movie real quick tampan and

12:53the actors guild of nigeria took one look at the script the cinematography and the audacity and

12:58immediately concluded this was a man that needed a break he was banned from acting of course yumi tried

13:05to explain himself he claimed okoyabo was all about human rights but nigerians weren't buying it lizzie

13:13adjoreen lizzie was kicked out of nollywood's vip section not for bad acting not for forgetting her lines

13:22but for doing what she does best shaking tables like a malfunctioning ceiling fan tampan had had

13:29enough of her wahala and decided to send her on an indefinite break lizzie had turned social media

13:35into her personal am radio station calling out colleagues dropping accusations like hot akara and

13:41generally turning nollywood into an episode of big brother niger without the prize money every week there

13:47was fresh drama one day she was dragging an actor but the next day she was throwing shade so sharp it

13:54could cut fufu tampan looked at all of this and decided enough is enough banning her faster than the

14:02lagos landlord increasing rent but banning lizzie adjoreen from nollywood is like banning jollof rice

14:07from nigerian parties it won't last even with the suspension she kept living large promoting her

14:14businesses and reminding everyone that she didn't need nollywood to shine this is the time to like
