Bisola is here to stay @NdaniTv abg🤲🤲🤲 shes such an amazing presenter🔥 first time following realtalk religiously 🤗 always looking forward to the next episode and I come back to rewatch before the next episode premier 😂 like! damn🥂

[@Nkem_O]

I think they deliberately switch up the host each season. Others prior haven’t done badly too. I guess if she doesn’t host the next one then we’ll know for sure

Efa is always a delight to listen to...Jemjem the stallion loovvvveeee the confidence...Eso is so cool. Bisola of course is a steady fave...thanks for an awesome episode 🥰🥰❤

[@Dems413]

My first time watching Eso Dike outside of him acting. He’s such a calm, suave and well spoken man. 👌🏾

[@titoabumere]

”MY LOYALTY IS TO MY CAREER.” 💯 -Jemima Osunde (2022)

[@gloriaeze6157]

Jemima is so intelligent ehh .... honestly her life looks so perfect like beauty +brains ....I am low-key jealous.....she speaks so well...I enjoyed this particular episode ...bisola and efa all love❤️❤️

[@chinubi103]

Now I see why Efa is really doing well. His closing remarks are words live by

[@KSuave-um9yq]

Eso like Mawuli needs to be pushed. They’ve been in their comfort zone for long. They can be great if they go beyond the fine boy roles they play.

[@preciousolajumoke4619]

Thissssss

[@olaakinfolarin2515]

Factssssss

[@jenniejennie7836]

Especially Mawuli whenever I see him as a cast, I already have an idea what type of role he'll be playing......

[@ATvee]

Totally agree with you.

[@biatgallery8525]

Can we hang this somewhere so everyone can see🤷‍♀️

[@Priscilla_Taiwo]

Seeing Eso outside the screen is killing me. Never knew he's so calm... love Jemima, always looking sweet. It's d way Efa started taking that ice cream for me😋..love y'all❤️❤️

[@owoeyejesulobagrace5092]

Beautiful people 😍 Jemima ! A queen I stan! Efa is thriving and I love to see it 🥵 And this is the first time I’m seeing Eso outside a screen and I’m impressed, he’s super chilled! Weldone Bisola 🥰

[@chiomaagwuncha801]

I like Efa’s vibe and he has cleaned up so nicely. Growth is all I pray for🤗🤗🤗

[@genevievearmah]

Jemima Osunde is so outspoken. I love it

[@nechefavour9332]

Jemima is eloquent and she knows her craft very well. Eso looks like he doesn't belong, Efa dey play safe, Bisola is good

[@olagbegidebby4376]

Efa has been consistent on this show. We viewers don't know what goes before the production. This is actually an eye-opener. Jemima is so confident and Eso is calm. Honestly, these are some of the challenges we love to see in Nollywood to be discussed. Thanks Ndani tv

[@JoSih]

I love Efa and Jemima. They are great actors with amazing personalities and are smart. Now hearing them again confirms why i love them. I am just getting to know Eso but he seems really cool. Bisola, what’s there not to love about Bisola?😊. This conversation was even more interesting cos 3 of them actually seem close. Now about Nollywood, all this inside info, hhhmm, i can’t even imagine what its like but they are doing really well despite their shortcomings.

[@udompetra4483]

Immediately I saw Efa Iwara,🥰😍😍😘 I knew this is a must watch 💯💯

[@priscillayeboah1718]

I sometimes come on to KZbin to see if there's a new video of him. Lol I love him

[@cestmoi6721]

Good stuff..One my main issues is that once an actor makes good in Nigeria they tend to be type cast in that breakthrough role..fine boy, thug, politician...etc..The casting needs to get better so that actors can display their full range. .. .and move away from the cliques ...

[@omolaralateefat131]

Pls bring kunle remi and bimbo adeyemo on the show plssss we love. See them...

[@kvng_neefah]

Just realized I can be a better presenter by studying Bisola all night long. Ise ya✊🏾✨ PS: Anty Bisola, thank you ohh🌚💃🏾💃🏾

[@Busybisi]

Here for Efa (my guy !!!!!!). Eso is also cool, we want more from him though. Bisola my ever beautiful mama 🥰❤❤

[@sose9601]

Eso Dike really worked on himself till he got this good. In Forbidden, he was still rusty.. Now he is on fire.

[@olajumokeodunayo5744]

Love y’all so much🥰❤️ please bring Sharon Ooja to the show🥺

[@blessingchira4897]

My loyalty is my career💯 Jemima. Efa abegg when mens club dey come out abegg I love bisola our host. Nice one eso.. Nice one Guys.

[@awhitfield6827]

First timer here. I came for Efa and Eso. 🥰 I also adore Bisola. This was great conversation and I really enjoyed hearing different experiences in Nollywood. Everyone has their own journey.

[@christolulope5915]

Efa's words and vibes.... Eso sweet calmness.... Jemima outspokenness... 👏👏👏

[@Xxx_OO907]

I can listen to Jemima for hours, I just love her

[@Iphie2019]

Eso and Efa are so calm and grounded. Good show. Bisola was splendid as always!!!!

[@chantelafamefuna4546]

Bisola is an amazing host honestly! Love Bisola, Jemima, Efa and Eso to the moon and back.

[@cestmoi6721]

From the outside(Kenya 🇰🇪)looking in this was a good, honest conversation.Bisola expertly navigated this topic.. asked the critical questions...highlighted the nuances of the Nigerian film industry.the issues .. There is a dearth of talent...in Nigeria.The knowing looks they all gave each other when talking about cliques...😉

[@ayandolaayanleke6900]

I'm not sure there is dearth of talent in Nigeria though. The reverse is actually the case. And I believe it's the same everywhere as well. It's just that as usual, there are a few at the top and many are still struggling to find their way.

[@cestmoi6721]

@@ayandolaayanleke6900 Agreed its like we only get to experience those few...

[@Dunos_Poetry]

This is one of the most interactive episode on this, that I have ever watched, maybe because you people are into the same profession.

[@juannieeee]

All my favorites,including Bisola in one Episode😩🥺😍I'm here for it

[@YaaDodouwa]

I just love Efa 😍😍

[@georgeoshoms3120]

Loved this episode, seeing as I am a fan of Nollywood. Conversations definitely flowed. Btw Efa iwara is a great guy, always enjoy his insights on different topics❤️❤️

[@oyedeleomolade2440]

Efa is definitely intelligent

[@TheKhayraGirl]

I think Efa is referring to that “Oga Pastor” series they stopped. Uzor too is so amazing, he kills every role. I love you guys at Ndani.👏👏 Always dishing out sense.😘 Thumbs up Miss B.👍

[@laureneze]

Jemima is so well spoken abeg 😌

[@titoabumere]

This is an interesting conversation seeing what Gideon Okeke has been posting recently on social media.

[@ayandolaayanleke6900]

What has he been saying? I hope you don't mind my asking.

[@FatitiGaila]

Jemima is so Eloquent ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@TKupes]

I must say this is probably my fav episode by far!! And I love how they asked Bisola for her own input at the end that was so cute lol, much love Ndani🤍

[@fyngrlbella]

Ahh when it comes to critique.... Chief daddy chop am😂😂 ommoooo I felt the gbas gbos on chief daddy but then some movie producers have wonderful actor's with a stupid script and sometimes a wonderful script with not making sense actor's....

[@tiaraboateng463]

I watched it some days ago and I enjoyed it. It could have been better

[@oladipogbemisola6]

I just love how Jemima talks

[@MuhibatZubbair]

I remember Efa from Mtv shuga too(Tobi's roommate). That was the first movie I saw him in. Much love😍

[@still.sophieee]

I love how relaxed everyone was fr💯 And I also love how there was a balance when it came to entertainment and education💯 Such a beautiful video, welldone guys🤍

[@chimdyekpemiro]

Ndani, biko let Bisola come back for another season because Omo🔥🔥

[@danieljones4299]

I love real conversations with real people...makes those of us aspiring to greatness know the struggles is for everyone and we all must face our battles without excuses, and that there is life beyond the camera and pictures. Great work u do, Bisola and the crew.

[@ibisobobmanuel2201]

It's obvious Bisola,jem jem and efa have connection outside the acting industry...Eso is just there but in between,they are all great people

[@bawoodjarenu7125]

Very true

[@temibillions_]

True. They have acted together. "That girl called Life" or something.

[@olufuwadeborah7246]

Yes there should be criticism!, constructive and destructive join... because we don't care about the work put in if the film is nonsense!. If the film has good storyline and even better execution, we then appreciate the behind the scenes, we even want to know the behind the scene.

[@pathwayuk]

Interesting conversation, I like this episode.

[@zikaden6549]

Now this is what a no-holds-barred conversation looks like. The panelists were vulnerable and spoke very real experiences especially when Jemima admitted to that cliques have helped her career. I love the line of questions and Bisola always kills it with her presenting skills. Did anyone else notice the subtle chemistry between Efa and Bisola? Could it be something? 🤔

[@cestmoi6721]

@@preciouscharles516 Agreed Efa has chemistry with everybody!!
