Well, another Nollywood flick is out &#8211; <i>Dirty Secret<\/i> (or about to be out), and this time, it&#8217;s Frank Artus (a Liberian guy whom many have mistaken to be Ghanaian), Muna Obiefuna, Jibola Dabo, and Tonto Dike. I have seen Tonto with her legs in the air so many times that I have become desensitized to it. I no fit shout. I can&#8217;t even complain anymore. As a matter of fact, not having her legs up in the air would be unusual.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">But what is this thing with Muna Obiefuna? I&#8217;m still trying to get over his gay role in <i>Men In Love<\/i> &#8211; not because Nigerian men are not gay (of course not), but because Muna&#8217;s portrayal of them was just laughable at its best. Now, I see him wearing a thong, which by the way is not how I have always pictured a man in thongs. He has completely ruined this for me! He&#8217;s kissing another man &#8212; an older guy this time (Jibola Dabo), and well, let&#8217;s just say I&#8217;m torn between being disgusted and amused.
