Nigeria turned sixty earlier this month, and although it can sometimes be tasking to find reasons to celebrate, we cannot ignore how our food, music or film industries have given us products to be proud of. Interestingly, since Netflix launched in Nigeria, movies previously accessible only in cinemas are now available for streaming. We decided to make a movie list you should look forward to, or if you like, watch them on weekends. This set of movies are deeply reflect our society, they are important and informative. Hope you enjoy them.

Journey of an African Colony

This is a docuseries about the creation of Nigeria. It is a very important film, I think every Nigerian should watch it because our history is not taught in schools. The producers of this docuseries did their homework. You’ll learn a lot from watching this one.

Oloture

This film is generating lots of conversation on social media. Some say the ending was horrible, others have said it was amazing. I am not going to form an opinion on it, all I can say is that you should watch it and tell us what you think.

Joy

I am always ringing a bell about this movie. Joy is a very raw movie that shows us what we do not want to see but is our reality. Add Joy to your movie list. It will be hard to watch but you will come out of it a better person.

Coming from Insanity

This is another movie that pushes the problems of our society in our faces. I like that Nigerian movies have shifted from romance and extreme comedies to movies that tackle our problems as a society. You won’t regret watching this one

Lara and the Beat

This movie is much lighter than the others above but still a very interesting movie to watch. What happens when girls try to save their parents legacy in Nigeria? Are they going to be hit with forces of the patriarchy? Will they succeed?

Diamonds in the Sky

This one hit close to home for me. It is a situation my family has had to do deal with. What happens when cancer strikes a close family member? How do Nigerians cope with it, seeing as our health care system is nothing to write home about? This movie will tug at your heart strings.

"My 10-year-old self always imagined friendships i "My 10-year-old self always imagined friendships in my 20s being this never-ending sleep over and back-to-back vacations with my uber cool friends. Help me laugh. Well, turns out making or keeping friends isn’t always that easy. I am gradually more aware that to keep a friend, you have to try to be there. I am 100% guilty of not being the best friend sometimes and I am always trying to work on it. I shared a few pointers on how to achieve this." @ellapinkette Link in bio

Mr. O was emotionally abusing me, yet I couldn’t leave him, I thought I couldn’t live without him. And that, is a classic example of a toxic relationship. Anyone can be a victim of toxic relationships because it isn’t limited to romantic relationships only. It can also be with friends & family members. The signs of toxic relationships are broad, but it always involves certain things." Lizzy Temisan

#Repost @milly_aku So, sometime in February 2008, #Repost @milly_aku So, sometime in February 2008, Dr. Priye Iyalla-Amadi sought for a replacement of her international passport and was told by the immigration officials in Port Harcourt that she needed a written permission from her husband first.
What this means is that before a Nigerian married woman can be issued her international passport, she needs to get a letter of consent from her husband.
Apparently irked by this administrative policy that tramples on her right, Dr. Priye Iyalla-Amadi headed straight to court and sued the Nigerian Immigration services (NIS).
NIS justified the requirement by arguing that:
"Married women are classified alongside with minors by the government as persons who require consent from the head of the family".
NIS further argued that the requirement for consent of the husband was put in place to "perpetuate the authority of the man over his wife, no matter the status she had attained in the society".
They also stated that the requirement was set to
"avoid unnecessary breakdown of the marriage institution in the country."
SMH
Anyway, Justice G.K. Olotu, the presiding judge of the Federal High court gave a judgment that has remained a source of exhilaration to every Nigerian woman.
The court threw out as unconstitutional the entrenched age-old oddity that required married women to obtain their husband's consent before acquiring or renewing their international passports.
In her verdict, Justice G.K. Olotu reportedly said,
“This kind of policy has no place in 21st century Nigeria.”
On June 1st 2009, NIS lost the case made against them by Dr. Priye Iyalla-Amadi, a woman who decided to speak up for herself and other women in Nigeria.
This is a gentle reminder to all girls and women, that we are the most important advocates for ourselves.
