Joseph Benjamin who played a lead role in the movie said no better words other than ‘biggest miss of the year’ could be used to describe the experience of anyone who misses out on the thrilling and educative movie which is scheduled to hit the cinemas come January 23, 2015 .
The popular actor said “First Cut is a great movie. I could not believe it is Omorodion’s first attempt at production; the outcome is a great product. So much work was put into it and having Chico Ejiro direct it, and people like Bobby Obodo makes it a great mix’.
First Cut is a theatrical blend of morals, fashion, education, information and professionalism in film-making and production directed by Chico Ejiro; featuring plots with collections of suspense, emotions, neglect, sex, insecurity, parenting, abuse, trauma and other psychological elements.
The movie narrates the story of KC Morgan, the central character, played by the producer herself, Lisa Omorodion; a character respected by many yet suppressed by trauma. Her own painful secret which threatens to shatter the new life she has created for herself; the central character’s woes were multiplied by her loved ones who continue to inflict pains on her.
First Cut embodies Nollywood stars of exemplified competence, mastery, class and real professionalism like Monalisa Chinda and Bobby Obodo.
Joseph Benjamin, said ‘We need good movies like First Cut to give us reality check. There are many deeper things to talk about other than love; yes, we need love but our being isn’t just about love’.
A #FirstCutMovieCelebrityHangout by Actors of The First Cut Movie will be coming soon at the Silverbird cinemas VI when the movie opens.

How much do they pay Nigerian video vixens these days?
I used to run a modeling agency and I used to provide girls for music videos. In fact, the first time I did it was as far as as 2000 when I brought some friends and school mates for Plantashun Boiz 'Don't You Know' music video (yeah, I've been around for that long ..lol). Those days, nobody really paid, we just did it as friends. But by 2004/5, artists started paying a stipend. The last one I did was in 2009 and my models were paid N10k each if I recollect correctly but nobody was showing off booty and getting near naked back then. But it's a little different these days...the amount of nakedness I see on Nigerian music videos is astounding and every time I see these girls in bikinis and short shorts, shaking their booty, I wonder if they get paid to be in these videos. If so, how much? Or are they just doing it to be on TV?

Why Jonathan Must Listen To Reverend Father Mbaka
Popular Enugu-based Catholic Priest, Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka, is reputed for his forthrightness and dedication to the service of God. He is a priest that South-Easterners, especially Nigerian Catholic Community and Christians have come to trust and respect, owing to the credibility and integrity of his priestly life and prophecies.
He is also known for his philanthropy and care for the downtrodden in society. Many indigent members of his parish currently enjoy full scholarships courtesy of the social crusader priest.
He said during his New Year message at the Adoration Prayer Ground in Enugu that President Goodluck Jonathan has no business seeking reelection in 2015.
Continuity of Jonathan means disaster to Nigeria
Most people will recall that I have continued to emphasise the fact that this country needs change if it must survive as a nation. I had presented facts and figures to underscore my assertion that President Jonathan’s administration has been overtaken by corruption and therefore we need someone with the political will and necessary discipline to clean the Augean stables and place her on the path of development again. Moreover, I had called on the suffering masses of this country to see the 2015 election as their finest hour to vote out a thieving and corrupt government and vote in a true reformer that would place this country on the much progressive trajectory once more.
Mbaka’s New Year revelation is a sure sign that God has rejected this government owing to its unpardonable transgressions and anti-people undertakings. I believe that Mr. President and his cronies have read Mbaka’s treaties and soon, his goons and attack lions will launch a blitzkrieg campaign to discredit him. But love Mbaka or hate him, he has spoken the truth and the truth will endure. For the purpose of emphasis, I hereby include part of excerpts from Mbaka’s sermon and humbly urge Mr. President to take heed because Vox Populi Vox Dei.
What Mbaka said about Jonathan and 2015
In the year 2014, we had a lot of bloodshed in this country. People were dying like rats without anybody asking about them. This country suffered a lot of blood experience. Many of us witnessed that people were in tears. Just like the ancient world, the year 2014, the four in it had the queen in it, which had to do with death. Our leaders failed us with reckless abandon and nobody asked them questions.
The so-called democracy was a hidden autocracy. It was deceptive and questionable quagmire. Nigerians suffered hunger unnecessarily. We heard about oil subsidy being removed and added. Whatever the jargon was, nobody understood them. We heard about minimum wage, the civil servants suffered, the minimum wage was not paid and we were all calm. In 2015, Nigerians will not be calm again! We need change. Whatever it will be, let it be.
This is my golden message to my beloved country. What actually is happening (Ogini nne me)? The multitude of our youths, the quality young men, quality young women, brilliant youths, but nobody has plans for any of you. Our so-called leaders should come and apologize. In 2015, it shall not continue like that. By the grace of God, by the power of the Holy Spirit, we are announcing spiritually, change! 2015 should not be a year of any hooligan maneuvering to hijack power. This is our New Year message. Listen, when you go home, tell anybody you see that from the oracle of the Holy Spirit, we are announcing change. Can somebody help me to shout change in Jesus holy name!
Look at what it’s like, as I’m yet to bless your families, bless your industries, bless your destinies. Come 2015, your plans are blessed, your visions are blessed, your locomotion – I mean your going out and coming in – is blessed. I cover this year with the blood of Jesus. I seal this year with the blood of Jesus.
Continuity of Jonathan means disaster to Nigeria
By this time in few months to come, many are going to lose their jobs and there is no alternative. During election, Jonathan will answer Azikiwe, Ebele and become an Igbo man and after election, the Ebele, the Azikiwe and Goodluck will vanish from his identity. Who is fooling whom actually? Look at our federal roads, we are not even asking for new ones, roads built by Buhari and Babangida – the so called Hausa people- cannot be maintained. Follow Enugu here to Onitsha, children born some years ago do not know that there was a lane along the other side of Isiagwu and we are all saying continue. The continuity of Jonathan means disaster to Nigeria.
We need change. May the Holy Spirit help me to vocalize what he has shown to me while I was waiting on him to give me a message for my people. I’m worried about the future of you my children. Go to school, go to school. Mention any government school functioning in Nigeria now? Our schools are dilapidated. Nigeria is like an egg about to break in the hands of Jonathan Goodluck and we cannot allow it to happen. It is so unfortunate that pastors are becoming vultures around the president.
Pastors are becoming hawks around him, eating the porridge of Jacob and selling their prophetic rights. And anointing is being merchandised in Aso Rock, carrying our Naira, turning it to dollars and carrying it in jets moving out of the country. Listen, this is the voice on the pulpit: all these men of God, who are telling Jonathan to continue because they are benefiting one thing or the other, you should question your apostolic, prophetic anointing. What the Bible says is that Samson did not know that the Holy Spirit had left him. Let them watch if the Holy Spirit is still in them.
The office of Jonathan let another take
Listen, they will begin to tell us this one is a Christian the other one is a Muslim. I don’t believe in that. Who is a Christian more than Judas? Did Judas not betray Jesus? Judas was not just a Christian, he was not just a mere apostle, he was a super apostle like a cardinal but at a time he messed up and Bible says “His office, let another take.” That is the normal thing. The way Nigeria is going right now, the office of Goodluck Jonathan let another take. I’m not campaigning for anybody. I’m filled with tears over what is happening in Nigeria. Some of us who have non-governmental organizations – funding charity, I know what I’m suffering. The more they are looting our resources, the more they are rendering you unemployed, the more some of us suffer the more. If I have been paying for the school fees of 500 people, it would now jack up to 3000, or more.
Jonathan surrounds himself with hooligans
What the government should do, individuals are struggling to achieve. When there is no road, no power, all these fake promises… where is the power? That Onitsha Bridge, has it now been built? No. After six years, and Goodluck has what it takes to do whatever. He surrounded himself with hooligans. By the time he comes down, he won’t have anybody to work with. He played himself into the hands of hooligans.
My interest is about the wellness of this country. Nigeria must survive what we are passing through by the help of God. The same God who saved us from Ebola will save us from this bad luck season!
Look at it, there was a time there was an argument about pension fund – such billions. Who is talking about it now? Billions and we were hearing it… from excess crude oil money, where is the impact of the excess crude oil money? Now from oil boom, it has met bad luck; it’s now oil doom. If my father will be my leader and my siblings will all die, let a stranger be my leader and let my family be. All I’m trying to tell you is that we have not entered into any covenant with anybody.
