REUBEN ABATI: El Rufai called you a nollywood actor to make fun of you. How do you react?
Peter Obi: no problem. I'm part of nollywood and that's why I want to improve our entertainment industry. Please, my fellow nollywood actors, vote for me. Vote for Labour Party.

I like writers whom you read and feel convinced that you could be a better writer just by reading them.
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Lesley Nneka Arimah, Sally Rooney and Garth Greenwell fill me with that conviction.

The writers of this show are so unfair to Leonard. They never let him win.

No way the typically ‘unbanked’ trusts the banking system again after this. You force them to bring all their cash into the banks and now they’re crying in banking halls, sleeping at ATMs just to eat. The distrust will be very hard to recover from.

Who wants to pay for my writing software?
Quote Tweet
Ryan Coogler’s wife paid for his first movie writing software that costed $300 when he didn’t have the money to pay.
He now has the record highest grossing film by a black director ever

Penny and Leonard finally broke up. Thank you, lord.
I was six. I wandered off one evening after a church. Got lost. This was past 8pm. A kind stranger found me and because I knew the name of our street, he was able to bring me home.

Peter Obi go fly economy today, fly business class tomorrow, fly PJ another day. A flexible king.
you people that whip out your phones to record people who went naked to cry out their frustrations in banks are sick in the head.
If your first thought is to record someone in a vulnerable moment, you are sick and I am terrified of you.

Not a milestone per se, but I would love for her to get that AMVCA. She's been nominated too many times and each time she was more than deserving. We want a win.

New Month, new Three! I wrote about Eyimofe and A Japa Tale, two recent films depicting Nigerians who want to emigrate; the political work that romance does in our intimate spaces; and some awesome new music.

“Another striking thing about A Japa Tale is how sparse it is, and how much the story does with little. It is short, told entirely indoors, in two or three rooms, and with a small cast of three.”
Thank you! 🙏🏿

With writing. I have found that I cannot discipline my way into inspiration. When the words come, they come. Otherwise, I am just staring at the computer and pretending to write.
When my brain is blocked, it is blocked.
