Luchy added that despite Appiah being her senior in the industry, she remains one of the most humble people she has ever met.
Her words, “@jackieappiah My very own QUEEN, the absolute love of my life,
My gossip partner in a good way oo
My very own big sister who has loved me like her own,
From the very first time we met years ago, you have been so sweet. You are my friend, but I see you more like a big sister. We may talk every day, but I hate that I don’t get to see you every day.
She is Rich, my senior colleague and my elder, yet the most humble person I have ever known.
I’m proud to call you my friend and Big sister,
I love you so much, and that will come with all my respect forever.
I didn’t want to write an epistle this year, but I just couldn’t help it.
Happy birthday and welcome to your best year yet.”
WOW.
Nollywood is a sobriquet that originally referred to the Nigerian film industry. The origin of the term dates back to the early 2000s, traced to an article in The New York Times. Due to the history of evolving meanings and contexts, there is no clear or agreed-upon definition for the term, which has made it a subject to several controversies.
The origin of the term “Nollywood” remains unclear; Jonathan Haynes traced the earliest usage of the word to a 2002 article by Matt Steinglass in the New York Times, where it was used to describe Nigerian cinema.
Charles Igwe noted that Norimitsu Onishi also used the name in a September 2002 article he wrote for the New York Times. The term continues to be used in the media to refer to the Nigerian film industry, with its definition later assumed to be a portmanteau of the words “Nigeria” and “Hollywood”, the American major film hub.
Film-making in Nigeria is divided largely along regional, and marginally ethnic and religious lines. Thus, there are distinct film industries – each seeking to portray the concern of the particular section and ethnicity it represents. However, there is the English-language film industry which is a melting pot for filmmaking and filmmakers from most of the regional industries.
