I have discovered that contrary to what some Nollywood top shots will have the public believe, there still exists a huge disparity between the Yoruba actors and their English speaking colleagues. Sadly, this has gone on for a long time and may continue, especially as the present generation, most of whom are educated, aren’t making efforts to bridge the gap but would rather continue to lag behind their English speaking colleagues, who continue to rake in mouth watering contracts, get featured in TIME magazine and chat with CNN, Oprah and other well known media houses.
