My Wife Knows That I’m Sorry For Prioritising Work During Our Vacation – Ayo Olaiya

Nollywood actor Ayo Olaiya has come out to apologize to his wife for prioritizing work during their vacation in the UK.

He recently had his say via his social media page, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, rather than concentrating on his family during their recent holiday in a foreign land, he got carried away with yet another movie project.

Ayo added that he is fully aware that he has wronged his wife by doing that, hence his public apology.

His words, “When you find it difficult to apologize when you’re wrong or the word SORRY seems the hardest to say, then you have a blotch in your character.

As for me, I will not justify my shortcomings. Instead, I will use this moment to apologize to my beautiful wife for allowing my work to deny her the pleasure of my presence when she came to the UK to enjoy my holiday with me. Adunni mi, I am sorry.

Babe, please forgive me. Ise aje lo so omo nu bi oko. Holiday pada di movie premiere.”

WOW.

Nollywood is a sobriquet that originally referred to the Nigerian film industry. The origin of the term dates back to the early 2000s, traced to an article in The New York Times. Due to the history of evolving meanings and contexts, there is no clear or agreed-upon definition for the term, which has made it a subject to several controversies.

The origin of the term “Nollywood” remains unclear; Jonathan Haynes traced the earliest usage of the word to a 2002 article by Matt Steinglass in the New York Times, where it was used to describe Nigerian cinema.

Charles Igwe noted that Norimitsu Onishi also used the name in a September 2002 article he wrote for the New York Times. The term continues to be used in the media to refer to the Nigerian film industry, with its definition later assumed to be a portmanteau of the words “Nigeria” and “Hollywood”, the American major film hub.

Film-making in Nigeria is divided largely along regional, and marginally ethnic and religious lines. Thus, there are distinct film industries – each seeking to portray the concern of the particular section and ethnicity it represents. However, there is the English-language film industry which is a melting pot for filmmaking and filmmakers from most of the regional industries.
