Chief Adebola Dosunmu, the Akinsiku of Lagos, has expressed disapproval over the portrayal of the Eyo masquerade in the Nigerian film, Gangs of Lagos.

In a video that has gone viral, the chief emphasized that Eyo is not meant for movies or parties and there is a specific process to it. He also revealed that Lagosians are unhappy with the movie and will not tolerate it.

According to the traditional chief, Eyo is only meant to be staged for deceased kings or chiefs, or individuals who have contributed significantly to Lagos.

Cap 🧢

Nothing dey happen ...imagine threat oo lol

Wahala this is an open threat ooo

A clown 🤡 inside white cloths carrying a stick is now an issue for people to be threatened. No wonder the current backwardness in Lagos. Let your deities fight for themselves

😂 😂 😂 rubbish eyo

Like Oro like Eyo, the OfficialAPCNg has politicized them. The chief must not complain

Lol is he joking? When we see two different factions of Eyo always fight in isale Eko for real? With guns and machete?🤣

Ogeni rest

Just imagine the open threat, the wanton lawlessness.

If they give the chief money.I don't think they will alter such words.The chief never see Isakole.

Dem say all characters are fictitious but I dey see something else. E b like say na one man Dem dey talk about. That one man.......

Eyo wey they play tete Abi na Eyo wey they do yahoo 🤣🤣

🤣 🤣 🤣

Be careful what you wish for. The same Lagos Chief kept mute when Oro was released at the wrong season to intimidate Nigerian 'immigrants' in Lagos. The gods are not to blame when their codes of existence are broken and misused. Kìnnìún tí wọ́n fi ẹran jẹ ní agbára.

May dem dey play People wey do koto aye go dey fear eyo

Just stupidity in a highest order. What happens to those movies portraying Christianity, Islamic Religion And ATR. The Eyo is just rubbish

Lol...see mumu talk

Story

I will play the role and portray Eyo and nothing will happen. The Lagos chief should “keep quiet”. When colonialists came and desecrated everything why did the Eyo not show power? Or Eyo na local champion? You wan dey threaten me ney? Pscheeew!! Go sleep!!

The same people who brought out the Oro to scare non-Lagosians during elections are now warning actors who used the Eyo masquerade in a movie about the implications . Proper Clowns these ones .

After desecrating on the altar of politics with lies? Make everybody gettat

Wait, they didn’t consult?

Nothing happened to those who invaded oba of Lagos palace during the end was even went away with the staff of office. Nonsense

Why issuing a threat on this? It's just a movie and a fantastic one at that.

Mtcheew Dem expose them and he is wailing

Nothing fit happen jare, those people wey dey do babalawo, witch and other spiritual thing for movie nko wetin do them

Oga nothing go happen...
