... that Daybreak in Udi was the first Nigerian film to win an Academy Award? Source: https://ynaija.com/throwback-daybreak-in-udi-was-the-first-nigerian-language-film-to-win-an-oscar/

5x expanded by SafariScribe (talk). Number of QPQs required: 0. Nominator has fewer than 5 past nominations.

The DYK rules require exceptional sourcing for things like firsts. Do you have more sources that say this? The BAFTA claim is also uncited. Also, this article does not recount much except the plot, so in its current state it fails WP:DYKCOMPLETE. This is not a reasonably complete picture of this film - it has almost no external material, no reception, no production history. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:39, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It has been several weeks since the above comment, and with no response from the nominator despite a talk page message and activity elsewhere, there does not seem to be interest from them in pursuing this nomination further.
