Nigerian music star Paul Okoye, popularly known as Rudeboy, has called out Nollywood filmmakers over a glaring editing mistake in a recent movie.

Taking to his Instagram story, the singer shared a clip from a Nollywood film where a crew member, the sound man holding a microphone, was visibly seen in the scene—an error that should have been edited out before release.

Expressing disappointment, Paul Okoye mocked the filmmakers for their lack of attention to detail, questioning how such a mistake went unnoticed before the movie was made public.

The video quickly went viral, sparking reactions from netizens who also criticized the oversight:

• Lorenzo Menakaya: “Microphone man is a star.”
• Abiodun Website Developer: “I don’t think they watch the movie before putting it out.”
• Symply Beautiana: “Tomorrow, they’ll complain Netflix didn’t add their movie.”
• Harry Waller123: “Don’t they review it before uploading?”
• Phemz.1: “Later, they’ll blame tribalism for not winning awards.”
• Confirm Guy: “Even Bollywood wouldn’t make this mistake.”
• OBO Daily Writer: “Grace speaks for the microphone man; the world needs to watch him too.”
