The movies is Predominant in Igbo Language and Hausa Language which are the two major languages in Nigeria.I will say Genevie was the only one that Always bring back the English Communication in the movie,I will not blame her because she does not know how to speak Igbo Language Fluently.
The Others actors ,Like Pet Edochie etc,used the Nigeria Native Igbo and Hausa Language even till the end.
I will say the Oscar Academy did not watch the movie before taken judgment on it.Is very bad judgement to consider,because Nigeria is made up of many ethics Group,English is needed to bring back the audience Attention.Using Hausa and all Igbo Language will make the movie boring and unpopular,I will say is not too late for OSCAR ACADEMY TO RETHINK ABOUT THAT DECISION.
