Femi Branch Shines in Netflix’s “House of Ga’a”
Ace Nollywood actor Femi Branch is currently in the spotlight for his standout performance in the Netflix original “House of Ga’a.” Branch’s portrayal of the main character, Bashorun Ga’a, has garnered reactions from colleagues, friends, and Nigerians alike. In an interview with Sunday Scoop, Branch discussed his role in the movie, the evolution of Nollywood, and the influx of new talent in the industry. He emphasized the need to prioritize talent and skill over appearance in casting decisions, stating, “The growth of Nollywood over the last few years has been exponential. The influx of new talents has been on a steady rise. But there is the need to pick talents over good looks.”
Branch also shared the challenges of playing Bashorun Ga’a, a real-life figure whose family and friends would be watching his performance. He described the rigorous preparation required, saying, “I had to die for two months so Ga’a could come alive.” His dedication to the role has been widely recognized, with various celebrities praising his work.
Among those who reacted to Branch’s performance was singer Adekunle Gold, who expressed his admiration in a post on X. Additionally, Grammy award winner Burna Boy created a buzz after endorsing Femi Adebayo’s movie “Jagun Jagun” in a viral video. While hanging out with Asake, Burna Boy revealed his love for the movie, humorously explaining that this was why he emulated the character Ogundiji.
Nigerian actor Tobi Makinde has reacted to rumours circulating about his relationship with Funke Akindele.
It can be noted that reports claimed the two were no longer on speaking terms and had grown apart.
However, the actor has dismissed the rumours, stating that nothing has changed between them and that social media is making assumptions.
“Nothing really happened between me and Madam Funke, and I am not aware of any fallout. Social media likes constructing their own script, and when they are done, they start looking for people to fill in the character they want.”
Nigerian singer Ayra Starr has shared her views on faith and religion. She explained that her relationship with God is personal and not solely based on church attendance, but something she works on daily.
“I can only try to be as perfect as Jesus is. I am not there yet, but I’m trying my best. I have a very close relationship with God and the Holy Spirit, and it doesn’t come with me only being in church.”
She added “Everything that comes with religion can feel limiting. I have found a way that works for me, and I am fine with it for now.”
Popular rapper Cardi B has issued a strong warning to individuals who stole and used her credit card.
It can be noted that the rapper had earlier expressed her frustration on social media after discovering her card was stolen and used before it could be frozen.
She later revealed that the stores where the transactions occurred captured clear images of the suspects, and she intends to pursue justice.
“I got clear pictures of you all in Saks and in Apple. One thing about me is that I don’t play with my money. You all are going to jail,”.
