Popular activist VeryDarkMan has reacted to reports that Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has returned to her husband, Ned Nwoko, following their marital crisis. He recently had his say via his social media page, and fans have been reacting.
Questioning claims that Regina returned mainly because of her children, VDM argued that the movie star would not have left in the first place if it were all about her kids.
He added that Regina‘s mother is to blame for taking advantage of her young daughter for money.
His words, “Regina Daniels has gone back to the husband. I’m very happy. Somebody said Regina Daniels only went back because of her children. She no see the children when she go before? Why she no care much about the children to stay before? If na poor man she go come back?
They said she was so young, he took advantage of the girl. Bro the person that took advantage of the girl was the mother. And I’ll still say it. The mother is still that girl’s problem until this world will end. Regina has no blame in all of this. Two adults took advantage of the girl, simple.
The mother engineered the whole thing even without her father’s consent. She no allow the girl explore. You know how old Ned dey? Their generations are far apart. Him generation dey far. Regina Daniels generation dey even below our own.”
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.
