I'm really annoyed at the way you've been broadcasting all the Nollywood films you've been showing recently.

I've been watching 'TOBILIOBA' for the past two weeks and you still haven't show us the remaining part of the film. I mean, I got so angry when you showed the final part of the film before you even show us what happened in between yesterday, and I've even missed out on some parts, which you haven't shown or I just didn't know when you were showing it!!! Its all now confusing and I don't even know whether you are coming or going . Its really appalling and I think that something should be done about it. If you are going to show us a film, I think you should put the title in front of the Nollywood so we know what you are showing, i.e Nollywood: Tobiloba, instead of just writing Nollywood on the screen.

And today, when I thought you will be showing the remainder of the film, you now started a Mike Bamiloye film instead, while Tobiloba hasn't even been completed!!! What in God's name is going and who is controlling the way you are showing programs on your TV station? I'm not happy at all!!

I've been living in the UK for a long time now, I thought watching your station and programs like this will give me a chance to catch up, if you like, on all the interesting things about Nigerian culture and arts that I have missed out on, only to find that you don't want that to happen!!!

Can you please rectify this problem please. Thanks.
Ranti.

I would like to commend all your work in the 'Nollywood' department of PassionTv. I think you guys are really doing a good job.

I must say that I visited your website purposely for what Olakit and cashu have said before me and I am very happy for a forum like this, I think this, as well, is commendable effort.

I am not relly sure that Keji addressed the question rised by cashu. I do not think the issue here is about delivering new programmes but being orgnised in the way progrmmes are delivered, I mean, something like being proffesional?????

Firstly, consider when you put Nollywood on the title of the programmes, I understnd Nollywood to be Nigerian films, but there has been times that I check it and what I watch is African music both indigenous and diaspora, or sometimes it is Deya's preaching. I think this is mis-presentation. I must say that things like this have cease to happen even in some parts of Africa. It is less than acceptable for it to be happening in the UK.

Secondly, the TOBILOBA issue, I thought I was the only person, and believe me as I am typing this mail, my wife is still awaiting the end bit of it. I have not been a fan of nollywood from time but my wife persuaded me to start watching them and they are not bad but showing them bits and pieces and giving us the extra job of piecing up the jigsaw. I too second the suggestion of putting the name of individual films on the slots rather than just putting the generic nollywood. I mean what it seems to me you are doing is you do not really care about your viewers, 'just dish it out to them they won't know the difference' we are not a bunch of buffons you know?

I would be happy if you consider the views of your viewers, remember not all of them are on this forum to express their views. So, do not give us a blanket answer, let your answer reflect that you understand what we mean and that you would address the issue, I mean it doen't take more that 3 button presses to change to any of your rivals. Please show some professionalism. WE ARE IN THE UK not in my local village.

I hope the issues raised are addressed.

Thnk you

Just in support of what a couple of people have said, it's nice that u're showing Nigerian movies, but I can't remember watching the end of suru logba and we keep checking to find out when Tobiloba will be concluded. Can someone please let us know what is happening in terms of programs and times and why u start a movie w/o finishing it.

It would also be nice to be able to watch a movie from start to finish and even if u can't finish the movie, please let us know by telling us when we can catch up with the concluding part.

Thanks!

Hi,

I noticed that it seems you have started listening to us, just finished watching a Mt Zion film and while you were about to finish you wrote 'To be continue(d)...'

I apprecite it that you are now making some changes but next time please remember to put the 'd' after the continue - To be continued. It would also be very helpful if you could say when it would be continued. I would also appreciate it if you could still consider our suggestion of putting the name of the movie in front of Nollywood, like: Nollywood - The Forgotten, Nollywood - Tobiloba, etc.

Let the improvements continue, Well Done!!!!
