Why I christened my twins Nollywood and Hollywood — Femi Ogedengbe on june 13, 2014 at 2:50 am in home video people
Lanky and heavily built Nollywood producer, Femi
Ogedengbe is back in the news again and this time,the
guy is furious over reported criticisms coming his way over
naming his twins Nollywood and Hollywood. The producer
vent his anger on his Facebook page, saying the level of
hypocrisy in Nigeria is just too high. "
How do I explain the attack I and my wife have received on
the internet for adding Nollywood and Hollywood among
the names we gave our bundles of Joy: King Praise Micheal
Victor Tochukwu Jesuogbo Iyinoluwa Hollywood & Queen
Grace Michelle Victoria Peculiar Chimamaka Jesukomeh
Opeoluwa Nollywood.
I guess all those who condemned us have been so blinded
by hatred that they couldn't see all other names but just
the Hollywood and Nollywood. Anyway thanks for noticing
me my wife and our children but what is really bad in those
two names?
Here in Nigerian there is a town called Umuagwo and
Umueke (descendants of snakes) and you don't think that
is weird enough but some of you whose family names are
something around the neighborhood of Esubiyi,Sango
these and Ogun that join in condemning a name that has
its origin in such a vibrant industry as Nollywood that has
engaged more Nigerian youth in one way or the other and
have helped in no small measure in putting smile on our
collective faces" he said.
