Pics: Nollywood stars, VP Sambo, OBJ in Gambia for the country's 50th Independence celebrations

Nollywood stars including Patience Ozokwor, Chinedu Ikedieze, Segun Arinze, Kanayo. O. Kanayo, Chief Chika Okpala (Zebrudaya), Monalisa Chinda and Francis Duru were invited to Gambia by the country's President, Sheikh Prof Dr. Yahya A JJ Jaameeh for their 50th Independence anniversary celebrations. Former president Olusegun Obasanjo, VP Namadi Sambo and Governor Suswam of Benue were also in attendance.

According to people who were in attendance, Obasanjo sat next to Sambo at the ceremony and other than greeting him when he sat down, Obasanjo didn't say a word to VP Sambo throughout the ceremony. Nollywood stars also snubbed him as no one went to greet him. Lol. Francis Duru led the Nollywood delegation. See the photos after the cut...

    That the Nollywood people refused to greet OBJ is because they are presently fighting for their stomach with their support for GEJ. Anyway OBJ did not need their respect after all he did not decide to dash them money as GEJ is doing. Our money is been dashed to this guys for free and they think we are foolish right. The fact that most of them no longer command viewers respect rather new acts have taken over is an evidence that they are the one loosing in their profession. Having said that the yoruba and hausa actors will continue to be relevant because they are yet to sell their soul for money.

If you are not known by box office please you are still a local champion and you remain so. With my in road into Hollywood am so disappointed Nollywood is just a local Nigerian hype.

    If it was is true dat d so called nollywood hungry actors,did not show courtesy to Obasanjo,then it is another low for them.Imagine d nollywood guys have bn carrying themselves lately as if dey are politicians.Most of dem from eastern part of Nigerians should conduct themselves properly and not spoil d names of others.It is a shame 2 hear such thing happen.Obasanjo is quarrelsome no doubt,but even GEJ will never see him and not give me is honour as his benefactor.
