Popular media personality Do2dtun has reacted to Tonto Dikeh’s open apology to her ex, Olakunle Churchill. He recently had his say via his social media page, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Tonto Dikeh isn’t the victim despite her forgiving Churchill, and Olakunle should be the one forgiving the Nollywood actress instead.
The former OAP added that despite the reconciliation, the stigma and reputation that Tonto set for her ex-husband will never be erased.
His words, “In my opinion, Tonto is not the victim here. Yes, she forgave, but I think if anyone needs to forgive anyone here, it’s Churchill. She might have been in the marriage, but I wished her forgiveness note was fully detailed; addressing the labels & tags cos you see that stigma & reputation she set for that man will never ever be erased.
Tonto’s latest post about Churchill is the hardest thing to do. My respect for her just rose. Forgiveness is a hard road to ply. I hope we all get there. Ah! This one shock me.”
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.
