Not all actresses are considered controversial in the movie industry, Nollywood.

Aisha Lawal, would hardly cut the tag of controversy.

However, she was caught up in one recently when she was quoted as saying “Yorubas started Nollywood and they own the industry”

Lawal, who spoke during an interview with Tribune said;

“We own the industry. Go back to research. The industry belongs to the Yoruba people. If you go back to research, you will hear from people like Hubert Ogunde and Ade Love. I don’t want to go into details. But, if you go and research very well, you will discover that Yorubas own this industry, we started this industry. We messed up at some point, but we are not playing catch-up. We are there already. Now, everybody wants to shoot a Yoruba movie.”
