Reno Omokri has stated that most Caribbean and African countries becomes wary of Nigerians because of the fetish depiction that Nollywood projects in it’s movies.
He stated that most people actually see Nigerians as being fetish and also disclosed what happened when he traveled with actor Kanayo O. Kanayo.
He wrote, “I have been to many African and Caribbean countries. Once they know you are Nigerian, many become wary. Not because of 419. But because of juju. Nollywood has conditioned them to see all Nigerians as fetish juju people. We did this to ourselves!”
“True story: in 2011, Kanayo O Kanayo and I were walking in San Francisco. An American lady recognised him. I brought out my camera, thinking she wanted a photo. She screamed and said ‘you want to use my photo for juju’! That is what Nollywood has done to us!

Remember that Nollywood has progressed so much now and has used it’s medium to address so many ills done in the society.
It didn’t stop at that but have progressed to join forces with Hollywood, Bollywood and other movie industries to produce good movies.
