Iya Awero, Ogogo, Oga Bello support Aisha Lawal

Meanwhile, some time ago, there was an argument on social media where Nollywood actress Aisha Lawal declared that Yorubas owned Nollywood.

In reaction to Aisha’s comment, many persons of Igbo extraction have kicked, saying Igbos started the home video business and one tribe can’t lay claim to Nollywood.

However, a clip of veteran Yoruba and Nollywood practitioners like Iya Awero, Ogogo, Oga Bello, and many more has revealed the industry’s supposed owners and how it started.
