Forget Thanos and Killmonger these are the greatest villains we’ll ever know, as presented to you by Nollywood.
Patience Ozokwor
There was no greater female villain in Nollywood history than Patience Ozokwor. She played the recurring role of the evil mother-in-law so well it was hard to disassociate her from it whenever she played any other role.
Pete Edochie
Three out of four Pete Edochie movies had him portraying an evil king or chief or cult member willing to do anything for money and power. He became so synonymous with those roles that you only had to see a picture of him pop up on a movie poster for you to know what the movie was all about.
Segun Arinze
No one was better at bringing scary characters to life than Segun Arinze. He is most popular for his role as Black Arrow in the movie Silent Night.
Hanks Anuku
You know we can’t leave out the ultimate IJGB bad boy. The Igwe Tupac before Igwe Tupac. We don’t think we’ve ever come across a Hanks Anuku movie in which he was not playing the role of a gangster or villain.
Kanayo O. Kanayo
Cult member or ritualist, Kanayo O. Kanayo portrayed his character so well we’d need little or no convincing if a story ever came out about him taking on this role in real life.
Jim Iyke
King of baby boys and breaker of hearts no matter what role Jim Iyke takes on it’s next to impossible to imagine him as anything other than a play boy.
Emeka Ani
If you were casting for the role of cult leader in a Nollywood movie no one will be better suited for the role than Emeka Ani. Like, imagine him as Pastor, and tell me if that makes any sense.
Chiwetalu Agu
Although Chiwetalu is now known for more comedic roles, he started off as that wicked brother who killed his brothers to take over their land and properties.
Alex Usifo
No matter how hard he tries Alex Usifo always comes off looking like the bad guy in whatever role he portrays. He’s the person that teaches everyone else how to fish from the river of money rituals.
After going through this list we are sure you can agree with us that these are the greatest villains Nollywood had ever produced.
And after many years of it being swept under the carpet, Nigerians are finally facing it.
Thanks to social media, we’re hearing of more cases, speaking up about those cases and even getting justice for the victims.
But as much as social media has served as a platform for advocates to speak up against Domestic Violence, it has also served as a means for different people who feel like they know shit to come and spit what they think is “wisdom” in our eyes.
Suddenly, everybody thinks they know the golden rule to stopping domestic violence once for all.
So when Pete Edochie’s son, Yul Edochie, also started dropping them tips like it was hot eba, the Internet went:
In the gospel according to Yul, Domestic Violence can be stopped if the woman learns to “zip up”, among other things:
"My father never hit my mother for one day…not just because my father's a gentleman but my mom always knew when to zip up" Yul Edochie. pic.twitter.com/xsBG2YOveP
Why does it have to be the woman’s job to keep the peace?
Yul Edochie is patriarchal. Places burden 100% on woman to keep peace in home. Speaks on the premise Man is god and Woman must bow. Idiot. https://t.co/mD90sGtGk8
1. Location is everything. You can use the city but the bush is always better.
The forest will add an extra layer of suspense to the movie. And you can’t beat those natural sounds of the owl hooting or the crickets chirping to make your movie extra scary.
2. You will need a white sheet for your ghost.
The ghost wearing it may or may not have their face painted white. The sheet takes care of that.
3. There has to be a chief priest or scary old man who uses cowrie shells to talk with the gods.
4. There must be a coven of witches that will be destroyed.
Yes! Up up Jesus! Down down Satan!
5. You can include an animal in your movie, but don’t worry about getting the real thing, visual effects will do.
6. Also include a mystical creature or two which the hero/heroine(s) will battle and eventually kill.
7. You’ll also need Patience Ozorkwor to lead your coven of witches.
And they have to be dressed in red.
8. Then you’ll need zobo. Lots of zobo.
9. You’ll also need white chalk. Plenty of white chalk.
Or white talcum powder. You can take your pick.
10. And you’ll need to get this guy:
And make him use his family for rituals.
11. But if you can’t find him, you can also use this guy:
And you better make him king.
Your horror movie can also feature:
12. Skin diseases…
13. Multiple breasts…
14. And Medusa…
Or at least the Nigerian Medusa.
15. Or you can just pack some boys into the bush, tell them to remove cloth and carry coffin in the night for money ritual.

Whenever you see a movie poster with this man on it, just know he will use the line “the elders say”. The Nigerian embodiment of Solomon, we think he should have a book out already. Take a look at these posts by people who want to be him.
