Are you really a fan of old nollywood if you don’t know the iconic Patience Ozokwor, fondly known as Mama-G? Well, if you know her, you’d also know how she’s always typecast as a villain. However, I have news for you—they lied to us! Mama-G was always a girls’ girl and these quotes from different movies she’s acted in corroborates our claim.
1. “Very soon penniless beggars will start flooding my house.”
As malicious as this statement sounds, Mama G was really only looking after her daughter’s interest.
2. “Do you know how much she spends on manicure?”
Mama G has always been the realest. How exactly is Amaka supposed to be doing laundry with her cunty nails?
3. “What do you do for a living?”
The one billion dollar question that decides if you have a future In her daughter’s life or not.
If you don’t have billionaire tendencies, forget it.
4. “Since she’s not pregnant, it means she hasn’t been sleeping around.”
This is exactly how you shut down an unfounded rumour especially from a jilted ex.
4. “Have you entered aeroplane before?”
What better way to placate your heartbroken daughter than the promise of an all-expenses paid for flight to Lagos to shop for clothes?
5. “A man who truly loves a girl will not leave without communicating.”
This is the kind of advice you should be getting from your best friend when you’re mourning an avoidant partner.
6. “I can only allow you marry him on some conditions.”
Yeah, it sounds outrageous. But can’t a girl plan burial rites for her grandma on someone else’s tab?
7. “You are unelightened.”
This is actually the only perfect response to anyone who tries to police your dressing or your life. Forgive them for their ignorance and walk out.
8. “Which King?”
She basically said: Who be Kwansogbu? For context, this is one of Nsogbu’s (her husband’s brother) many efforts to try to bully her. One thing is sure, Mama G will not let anyone bully her.
9.”Make sure you give him that mark on his body.”
Sometimes violence is the answer to bullies who can’t keep their hands to themselves.
