Shanty Town: Nancy Isime didn’t have to explain | TheCable

[OPINION] Shanty Town: Nancy Isime didn’t have to explain | TheCable

In 1996, when Kenneth Nnebue’s NEK Pictures released Part 2 of the movie Glamour Girls, I wrote a piece warning Nigeria’s moralist army that they had seen nothing.

My argument then, as now, was that the art of production has its own tradition, which would most definitely overrun any other tradition that embraces it.I said in that essay that practitioners in the dramatic mode of representation of reality dare to venture into unconquered territories and tendencies. As an example, I pointed out that sometime in the development of theatre; it was taboo to see blood on the stage.

These viewers, in ventilating their opinion, do not concern themselves with how appropriate and effective the ‘offending’ scene is. They worry about the audacity of veteran Richard Mofe Damijo and the gorgeous Nancy Isime in the scene where Damijo, as Chief Fernadez, orders his goons to strip Shalewa . Many of those who have seen the series criticise Isime for exposing her body and RMD for “descending so low” by groping the courtesan who came home with his son.

But it will be hard and unrealistic to blame Miss Isime. Nigeria is full of self-righteous people who do not just judge and condemn, but also feel like they can dictate the way other people should live. For an adorable young, hardworking lady, it is not out of place to desire the respect of your fans and expose a trade secret to avoid trouble.

Apart from being an adult, old enough to make her own decisions, possibly with just deference to her family, Miss Isime is also a professional. Just like a doctor, lawyer, engineer, or accountant who strives to excel and breaks new ground, an actor is a professional who strives to increase capacity, expand range, and break barriers.Consummate artistes like RMD and younger ones like Isime are professionals who stretch themselves playing assorted roles and accomplishing feats.
