Hollywood film is about to release movies in cinemas title Children of Corn. Social media cause a buzz due to the release of a Hollywood film with the name; Children of the Corn.
Following the announcement, citizens of Nigeria on the microblogging platform, flooded the comment section and asked for the movie to not be brought to the country’s cinemas.
The reason for this is because of the word ‘Agbado’ which is Yoruba for corn, and it was popularized by president-elect, and former APC candidate Bola Tinubu, who talked about how it can be fed to youth who will be recruited in army while he was campaigning.
The promotion page announced on 21st of March that the horror flick has officially hit theaters but it got a plethora of response that it never anticipated.
