In the earlier days of her career, Ngozi Ezeonu was the one who was victimized by her husband’s other wife and that was a fun watch. But when she turned the table around and became the one doing the victimization, she would become wicked version of a good mother.

Many people seems to be wildly obsessed with Clarion Chukwuka movies. The sage and anti-men advice, the wild hair colors, her nails which rivals Cardi B’s and her general iconic-ness.

Nollywood made her into the bad guy for wanting her daughters and step-daughters to decenter men and seek reparations.

If you google ‘step mother in Nollywood’ you are likely going to see loads of videos and images of Patience Ozokwor because this woman is the genre itself. No one else can be simultaneously oppressing a whole village, her step daughter and her husband.

The devil works hard, Kris Jenner works harder, but you see Patience Ozokwor? She outworked, outsold, and outdid them. No one is like her. No one has invented and reinvented the act of shadiness backed by sly and unprovoked wickedness quite like she has in Nollywood.
