The Minister of Information and Culture Lai Mohammed has disproved claims that he said he planned to ban the production of Nigerian movies and videos overseas.
He said this as a reaction to the criticism trailing the reported statement. He claimed he never said all music and films would or must be produced in Nigeria.
He said:
At COSON, I said that I would work to amend the National Broadcasting Commission’s code to ensure that if a product is designated a Nigerian product, it must be produced in Nigeria. I didn’t say that, henceforth, all music and films would or must be produced in Nigeria.
All I said was that if a programme is designated as a Nigerian content programme, we will amend the code to ensure that it is produced in Nigeria. I didn’t say I’ll ban the production of Nigerian movies and videos overseas.
Well all you need to do is to provide an enabling enviroment for good mate in Nigeria productions.
Well said @Lydia. “he should provide an enabling enviroment for good made in Nigeria productions”.
Give us quality and we’ll stop patronizing oyibo people.
