Don pedro-Obaseki wrote an open letter to Rita Dominic concerning her recent cinema movies statement
As some supports Rita Dominic and her #noteverymoviesshouldbeincinemas# discuss, some don’t think it’s the right thing to say. One of these people is Don Pedro-Obaseki a movie producer, who thinks Rita is on an ego trip. Read his open letter to the actress:
“AN APPEAL TO #RITA_DOMINIC – From Don Pedro Obaseki.
My dear star, sister & colleague’, Rita Nwaturocha (aka Rita Dominic & once upon a time, Rita Lamb), I’ve had the inglorious privilege of reading about your “Table Shakings” and the reactions they’ve elicited.
Ma, humility is a virtue, and caution ain’t cowardice! I remember a few times around 2003-2006, when you used to “sweat” at Chico’s in Bank Olemoh, roaming from one set to the other, while recording TWO or THREE movies at the same Time!
Don’t be like Chichidodo, the proverbial Ghanaian bird in Ayi kwe Armah’s novel. Chichidodo was the bird that hated shit, but feeds only on the maggots from Shit.
Please dearie. Leave that Table alone. It is fragile and you are right atop it dressed in your Sunday Best! But the table floats on the Lagoon of filth and jaded black trash. You may slip headlong into the murky lagoon, and because you’ve maligned all that may be willing to lend you a helping hand, you may be left to drown with no one to help pull you ashore.
Life is a trickster. Let it not prank you. Learn that there’s nobility in humility. No be beans, my dear. As a free-spirited “young man”, I offer this ” small advice”, albeit with NO PREJUDICES. Your journey from Choba & Delta Park in Uniport to where you are now is worthy of commendation. Don’t waste it on an ego-trip.
Please remain assured of my most esteemed regards.
Rita Dominic, AY and Lancelot on the right movies for cinemas
The trend in Nollywood now is taking all movies to the cinemas, whether cinema worthy or not. But despite might be because there is no understanding on the qualities of a cinema movie or, the economic of Nollywood movies in the hand of piracy and low patronage of CD. Rita Dominic, AY and Lancelot Imasuen have all spoken about the cinema trend.
Rita Dominic who was the first to speak out in a post said: “Nobody sets out to make a bad film, but so many of those compromises are made and often they’re made because of vanity, pride and ego.” Following the post was her comment which read: “Let the quality of work match the hype!! #nollywood #noteverymovieshouldbeincinemas”.
She was met with different response with people, who mostly agreed with her.
CINEMA MOVIE DISCUSSION
In response to this, AY and Lancelot also stated their own opinion. AY said to LIB that:
“Rita Dominic actually made her point. I had a chat with her on other issues barely 24 hours before her post. I guess it was just a general statement to better the industry. I am only a baby producer in the industry with 3 movies that made it to the cinemas with good box office records/Guinness world records. Judging from where we are coming from, I’m impressed with the growth of Nollywood. The Cinema owners have their criteria and standards for screening any movie they show to the public. All i do is stay in my lane and do what i am supposed to do. Anyone have the right to say Timi Dakolo is a better singer than Davido, but they are both appreciated seperately in the showbiz world based on their different markets. So the seriousness and technicalities you expect from the movie 76 by Izu Ojukwu, should be different from an Ay’ 30 Days in Atlanta that is designed to make you laugh”.
Lancelot Imasuen the filmmaker also had this to say: ”In our closet we also talk about it that the cinemas should also be mindful of what they take from Nollywood because we are having a problem. Everybody is talking about Black Panther. Even Atiku is went to watch Black Panther but I have asked people when they come out of the cinemas, if they understand the foreign film they went to watch? Many people are just following trend. A lot of people do not understand the movie, they just went to watch because their friend went to watch.
He continued by saying:
It is not all kinds of films that should really make the cinemas. There are films that are deliberately made for home viewing, internet viewing, private view. Cinema films should have a lot of high pitch, entertainment. I am strongly with Rita Dominic that it is not all fims that should be taken to the cinemas. The cinema operators should also have an internal mechanism to identify the movies that should be taken to the cinemas. The question will now be what are the yardstick for measuring films that should cinematically viewed? We should leave the audience to determine the fims that should be cinematically viewed 99.9% of movies that get to the cinemas fail because they cannot make back their returns. They use hype, Instagram and social media razzmattazz to cover it up. Did you the advert of Black Panther on Nigerian tv? The actors are not doing meet and greet in the cinemas. Howcome, for three weeks now, the cinemas are being flooded? Who advertised the film. Several of Nollywood movies are failing because they cannot meet the small budgets that was used to make them. No Nigerian film has ever made movie in the cinemas. Most of the movies end up in the red carpet. People just go to the premiere to take selfies and that is the end. What Rita said is not out of place. She did not put it well. There is no yardstick for measuring movies that should make the cinema”
These five Nigerian actresses have managed to remain ever young.
The Nigerian Entertainment industry has been blessed with a good number of fertile talents, accompanied with remarkable beauty as seen in several Nollywood actresses.
Nollywood, as an arm in the industry has had a lot of actors and actresses over the years. Some of these actors have retired due to old age, while some remain strong in the industry. Some of them, since their advent into the movie scene have remained as they were, in ages past. They have refused to age.
Here is a list of some of those actresses whom we think have remained beautiful and young looking, despite their ages.
Kate Henshaw is one of the actresses that keeps one wondering with her looks. The actress who made her debut into the movie scene in 1993 majored in Medical Microbiology at the School of Medical Lab Science, LUTH (Lagos University Teaching Hospital) in Lagos. She is blessed with a son and has featured in over 45 movies since her first major role. If one was asked to guess, one would easily make the innocent mistake of placing Kate’s age at 30. Well, Kate Henshaw was born on the 19th of July, 1971. This places her age at 46. Who would imagine?
Kate Henshaw
The task of guessing Rita Uchenna Nkem Dominic’s age would never be an easy one as the actress’ looks never makes it easy for anyone. In 1998, Rita made her debut into the Nigerian Movie industry and has acted in over 100 films since then. The award winning actress has remained dazzling and beautiful for ages. Her unique dress sense however, sets her on another level. Born on the 12th of July, Rita would be 43 years old soon. She was born in 1975.

On the 7th of February, Omotola Jolade Ekehinde clocked 40. In grand style the actress celebrated her new age with a five day event which culminated in a Grand Ball. The actress came into the movie industry in 1995 when she landed her major role as an actress. The award winning actress has since then, acted in over 300 movies. She has remained sexy and beautiful, despite the fact that has birthed four kids.

Born on the 22nd of April, 1978, Omoni Oboli is a mother of four handsome boys. She made her debut into the silver screen in 1996 and has since then, won several awards, including the award for Best Actress Narrative Feature at the Los Angeles Movie Awards. Omoni is not just an actress, she is a script writer, director and producer. Merely looking at her picture, one would think that the actress is just a young actress, going about her life in her 20s. Well, Omoni Oboli will join the group of ‘fortified’ (she’ll be 40) actresses in April. Whoop! Whoop!!
Omoni Oboli
Born on the 3rd on May 1979, Genevieve Nnaji has been in the movie industry since she was 8 years old. She began her full fledged career at the age of 19. Since then, the actress has been an active part of the Nigerian movie industry. Having won several awards, including the first ever Best Actress Award in the City People Awards, 2001. Genevieve is blessed with a daughter and has remained single. Come May 2018, she will be 39 years old, even though she continues to look like she is in her early 20s.

These actresses have over the years won the love of fans all over the world. Which of them is your favorite?
Ever wondered why she has chosen to remain single?
Have you ever given thoughts to reasons why actress, Rita Dominic has remained single all along? Well, wonder no more as she has answered the question in this one.
Rita Dominic in a reported interview gave reasons why she has chosen to remain single even at Forty Two.
She said she is going to have to live with ‘the man’, she is going to get married because she wants to, not because the society wants her to.
“I will live with the man, so it is very important that I do it because I want to, not because society wants it for me. I believe that God is in control of my life and will present the right man to me at the right time.
She further stated that she dates often and likes all the things couples do. Her fears however are liers and bullies, she said.
“I do date sometimes when someone comes around. I love being totally drawn to someone and doing all the loving things couples do, but I am wary of liars and bullies.
Recall that the actress was once in a romantic relationship with actor, Jim Iyke.
She is no doubt one of the screen divas that fans can’t wait to see take a walk down the isle.
They are single, rich, old enough and oh! by all means, good looking so here’s the big question, why have they refused to put a ring on it?
Some of these five Nigerian celebrities have in the past, sparked rumours of impending marriages, some just leave us with speculations of relationships that never lead to the isle while others just choose to remain single parents. Some of them have even chosen to result in making light their single status by constantly making jokes of it.
Today, we have decided to put together, a list of Nigerian celebrities that are yet to feel the taste of marriage.
I guess you already know who the first on our list is but let’s not leave you guessing…
In case you guessed DON JAZZY, the prize of the ‘quesser’ of the year goes to you. Now termed Nigeria’s most eligible bachelor, Don Jazzy is one that has become too comfortable with his bachelor’s status that nothing seems to get to him anymore when it comes to the call to marry. With an estimated net worth of $35 Million, Micheal Colins Ajereh is certainly one of those guys that any lady will be thrilled to walk down the isle with.

Next Up is our beautiful Genevivve Nnaji. one keeps wondering how the beautiful mother of one manages to remain single. It wont be a surprise to know that the beautiful actress gets tons of suitors on a daily basis, why she is yet to take a walk with one of them however remains a puzzle.

Jim Iyke is that one person that always seem to be able to effortlessly wear being single like an accolade. Having had series of relationship rumours sorounding him, James Ikechukwu Esomugha was at a point rumoured to be planning to take his Jamaican fiancee, Keturah Hamilton to the alter. Obviously, that was just a rumour.
Jim Iyke
Timaya is still that plantain boy that has refused to give his (typical African) mum joy by presenting her with a daughter in-law. I mean, what’s wrong with taking the bold step and popping the question; “will you?” with the assurance that any woman of his choice will say yes. 37 year old Inetimi Alfred Odon A.K.A Timaya is a proud father to two lovely daughters from his baby mama.

It seem to beat my imagination to think that a woman adorned with the beauty that can douse the tension of two feuding camps just by appearing in a war scene as Rita Dominic has never been married. I mean guys, what have you all been waiting for. One will easily think that guys will do whatever it takes to have the honour of being Rita Dominic’s husband. We’ll keep hoping that the dauntless guy will show up soon enough and break the barriers to Rita’s heart.
Rita Dominic
These celebrities certainly have all it takes and even more to have a happy home and we certainly can’t wait to hear the wedding bell ring.
Both actors starred in several movies together and could easily pass for the face of Nollywood at the time.
In a recent interview with Broadway TV, Jim Iyke opened up on why his relationship with Rita Dominic didn’t last. He said that there were deep into each other but he was just a kid trying to explore so Rita who was looking at a longivity couldn’t cope with his lifestyle. He said…
”Rita and I met when I was just beginning to embrace fame ,the comforts that came with it.The laurels and the distraction,even the destruction. And Rita is not the kind of woman that hangs around a groth. We were very deep with eachother.We still are great friends.As a matter of fact,it may surprise you thar we haven’t spoken to each other in over two years. But when we meet,we are cordial ,respectful .
There is that deep rooted thing of a man or woman you shared something with .I don’t think Rita at that time was looking at longevity, truthfully .Don’t forget,I was the kid with the crazy afro,ready to start a fight. My life was around having a good time and as many conquests as possible .So,who wants that kind of guy?So this question is futuristic in a sense .Fastforward peharps 10 years from now ,that question may have had dept or hold water .
But then,what was there to hold on to?I mean,seriously ?I was partying like a crazy person.She tried to show me another life and say listen ‘there is so much more to you ” I promise you that Rita will not hang around with a lay about .I was uncontrollable. I think we have outgrown each other now .I would not see Rita as son one I wantto get involved with because so much layers of growth and evolvement have gone on in her life and so is mine .So place the same place and situation now,it may have worked .
Rita Dominic and Jim Iyke featured in movies like ‘Love Will Change Him’, ‘My Matrimonial Home,’ ‘Waterloo’ and many others.
The 42 year old screen goddess who is certainly loved by so many is obviously one whose awesome personality can keep one mortified just by the sight of her presence but to think that a total stranger will go as far as planting a kiss on her lips as a show of love can be described as being a bit over the bar.
In an interview with this day, the actress recounts how she encountered a fan who shocked her by planting a kiss on her lips the moment he set his eyes on her.
She said:
“Some guy many years ago, I was trying to pass and I tapped him, just trying to say ‘excuse me’ and the next thing, he does a double take when he turned his back seeing it’s me and grabs me and just plant a kiss up my lips and then he screams my name Rita Dominic! I was in shock…what was that? Then my friend just took me away from there. I’m human, I wouldn’t know, she responded laughing. The thing is, first and foremost I’m quite a polite person. It takes me a while to be pushed. It’s possible that I would have just ignored and smiled since it’s a fan and it was a reflex action. He was just excited to see me. I could have ignored it I’m sure. I found it unexpected and was in shock. I wasn’t angry. It just happened in a split of seconds and I was just out of that place. But when I think about it I actually laugh.”
On how she has managed to stay relevant in the movie industry for decades, the A’list actress said:
“What I do is I try to be better than I was last year, I try to be better than I was two years ago and I try to be better than I was at the start of my career in terms of my acting. I look at my work from way back and I say okay maybe these are the things I’m going to do. I just constantly look for ways of immersing myself in a role. I feel like over the years when people have seen that this person has constantly been growing, automatically your relevance is there because people believe in your ability to bring a character to light. So because they believe in that your ability, they constantly want to work with you.”
