Sept 24, 2015 – Where Is Nollywood In Nigeria? – Yoruba Actor Dele Odule Pokes Fun At Nollywood
In a recent chat with Sahara TV, Nollywood actor Dele Odule declined to be associated with Nollywood.
The veteran movie star said there is a loophole in the adoption of the name Nollywood.
In his words:
“I don’t see myself as a Nollywood artiste, I am just a Yoruba actor from Nigeria. If we must copy the ‘wood’, we must do it correctly.
“Bollywood is in Bombay, Hollywood is in California, there is need for me to know where Nollywood is in Nigeria. That is why i don’t see myself as a Nollywood actor.”
