Nigerian filmmaker,Niyi Akinolayan has called out Nigerian actors who give thanks to God during their award speeches, saying the votes are determined by human judges and not God.
The AMVCA 2017 awards got lots of celebrities thanking God for their award, but he feels it's unnecessary. Read what he posted after the cut...

Quote
"Nigerians and their obsession with "thanking God" at award ceremonies. That's a great platform to reach a lot of people and say really important stuff. Why do you think thanking and giving glory to god is the most important thing you can say at an award show determined by votes and human judges. Sigh! Which one is "it can only be God". It's a company recognizing great talent and largely protecting their interests too. It's not god!!!"


Do you agree with him?

I do not agree with him at all. The truth is that God is the ultimate determiner of who wins. He alone gives the skills, favour, mercy and opportunities. I take side with the celebrities giving thanks and glory to the one that own it. God only uses the judges to do His wills.

crazy Christians and their crazy religious believes. Nigerians work hard, hustle like a crazy person and when good things start to happen to them or when they succeed, its automatically an invisible God responsible for it..Its like Nigerians are almost embarrassed and ashamed to take the credit for their hard work, hustling and efforts. THIS IS THE DISEASE OF RELIGION AND RELIGIOUS INDOCTRINAION FROM CHILDHOOD....ABOLISH ALL FORMS OF ORGANIZED RELIGION TODAY AND LETS THINK AND DO THINGS WITH COMMON SENSE...
