The Nations reports that filmmaker, Chris Ekejimbe has died. He was a prolific filmmaker and owner of 4Screams Production Company, a board member of the Association of Nollywood Core Producers (ANCOPS) and founder of notable Nollywood social media group, Film4Life.

News of his demise was broken to members of the group by founding President of ANCOPS, Mr. Alex Eyengho early Saturday.
“Folks! Sad day for Nollywood! Chris Ekejimbe just passed on a few moments ago at LUTH. Lord have mercy. I just spoke with the wife!” Eyengho stated.
The news has sent shivers round Nollywood camps, with condolence messages pouring in, even from Kigali, Rwanda, where filmmakers and actors are gathered for the 14th edition of the Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) holding tonight. The Nollywood producer, according to the credible online platform, died at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital on Saturday morning while undergoing treatment.

Ekejimbe was said to have been referred to LUTH when his condition became critical after he was allegedly given a wrong injection at another hospital.

Nollywood producer and screenwriter, Pascal Atuma, on Friday said that one has to be “a prostitute or semi-prostitute” to be successful in the Nigerian movie industry.

The screenwriter, who was speaking in an interview with TheCable, said that Nollywood is “controlled by pimps”. He further advised upcoming actors and filmmakers not to be deceived by the glamorous lifestyles they see on social media.
“If you are not a full-time or semi-prostitute, you will not make it in Nollywood.
“Our ladies are using what they have to get what they want. Even some of the guys who can use their a** are the ones making it in Nollywood.
“I am being very real here and they make it look as if they are doing well but they are not, they are suffering.
“Let’s stop deceiving the younger ones by keeping it real. We have to let the younger ones know how it is and what it is.”
Atuma dared anyone to challenge him on his disclosure, saying he’s ready to debate a contrary opinion.
“Pascal Atuma is my name and I am saying it the way it is and that’s the truth.
“If you want to challenge me on this, please come and do it on any national television in Nigeria or anywhere. I am even ready to pay for the challenge.
“The biggest boys in the industry know that I am saying the truth. I am saying the truth and there’s nothing anyone of them can do to affect my career, they can’t employ me,” he added.

So he who finds a wife finds a good thing, but what about she who finds a husband, does She finds a better thing?

Marriage has lost its purpose for bliss in union and has become more of a doctrine in this part of the world.

A society where one is termed as irresponsible when you still answer your maiden name at a certain age. Or to make it worse, you are termed to be possessed by a spirit bride or groom that has been tormenting you from having a husband or a wife.

Let's "WHY SHOULD I GET MARRIED" take you on a journey.
