ReplyDeleteI haven't seen it so I won't know if she did a good job or not..
ReplyDeleteSince it had 11 nominees..
C'mon na...
She must have done a good job..
Everybody makes mistakes, nobody is perfect, she can always improve on her abilities, and if she is being criticised, its to make her a better director

ReplyDeleteIf there are no critics,many people would probably never get better at what they do.
ReplyDeleteI hate pretentious women! Unfaithful women! Why marry if you know you will cheat! I have no respect for omoni oboli ,na she carry God pass for head, na she they form good wife and mother but na she dey cheat pass. How can you be sleeping with a married men and your governor .he sponsored all your projects and even your new house you moved into from VGC. I pity your house boy husband who you deceive all the time. God in heaven will expose you soon ,that scandal with Gilda Amata and your governor is small compared to what he will do to you soon. Shameless woman!
ReplyDeleteAre u sure of what ur saying? Anyway if its true,it doesnt make us like her anyless,she wont be the first, many nollywood married mothers cheat on their husbands,and bedsides this isnt even confirmed,it may be just wickrd people peddling such hateful rumours!!! Team Omoni Oboli all the way
DeleteTerrible actress. I can't stand her movies .Always buying awards. 11 nominations and we have not even seen the movie. There is God o
ReplyDeleteHater, u don follow am reach here abi? Wonder wat u ave ever directed in ur miserable boring life.
DeleteI must really say that u are one hell of an anonymous fool smh
DeleteThe movie sounds interesting! But I hate the fact that everybody now wants to act, direct and produce; which isn't a bad thing but the thing I suspect is that they aren't doing it for the right reasons. Why are all the budding producers and directors in the industry female? I do suspect is them wanting to compete! Women you see are always in competition with one another! Wanting to outdo the other!
ReplyDeleteU ar nice gal but u jus dey collect award. Frnds add up. 4private chat. Bbm 25fc1101. Whatsp. +2348141791567

ReplyDeleteHmmm! OK!!! chekwasmichael86gmail.com
ReplyDeleteMay Ebola Virus scatter all their mouths, she is an amazing actor, and pretty too.Nigerians are fond of criticising their fellow colleagues in the job
ReplyDeleteIf the governor was the only person this cow has slept with while forming and prasing Omotola, it would be okay. God that will judge her. The fact that she calls God is the one that amazes me the most. I pity all those prayer warrior women forming friends with her.
ReplyDeleteHater who r u to judge and rubbish her? Show ur face coward,he who is without sin shld cast the first stone,idiot.did she sleep with u?
DeleteAll of you saying terrible things about others here, why don't u comment with your real identity and not as anonymous. People would always think they've got an opinion in other peoples lives and endeavours but they forget to pay attention to themselves and improve on their own paths. Thereis always room for imimprovements. Stop the hate!
ReplyDeleteEvn me self fit direct films
ReplyDeleteI see hate everywhere! However, it won't stop God from blessing Omoni! Who made u a judge over her? The God I presumed you called, is a merciful one. If not, you sinful haters won't be alive to write trash about people. I'm not her fan, but I'm allergic to haters!
ReplyDeleteI think she is amazing but it would have been nice if she wore something decent while visiting president Jonathan at ASo villa. these politicians are sometimes pervertuous. From the picture I saw, she appeared uncomfortable shaking Jonathan with that cleavage baring dress. Such a distraction
