“We can’t produce quality movies because we may likely not make our money back” – Nollywood actor, Jamiu Azeez reveals
Well-known Yoruba Nollywood actor, Jamiu Azeez, has disclosed the reasons the film industry cannot produce high standard movies.
Naija Latest Gist reports that in the past many Nigerians have often condemned the movies being churned out by movie producers, saying they are not standard.
However, in a post on Instagram, Jamiu lamented over the high rate of piracy by some websites and social media channels.
According to him, it is sincerely heartbreaking to see the widespread piracy recently launched on a new movie project and viewers accessing the unauthorised platforms.
The thespian further questioned how Nigerians expect them to produce good movies when they may likely not get their money back due to piracy.
He wrote: “You all complained about Nollywood producing standard movies. How do you expect us to produce good movies when we may likely not make our money back. Please say no to pirated websites. Please say no to the telegram channels.
“As a creator in the realm of filmmaking, it deeply saddens me to witness the rampant piracy of recently launched major projects. Even more disheartening is the fact that many individuals show enthusiasm for viewing content on unauthorized platforms, rather than through legitimate channels.
“This scenario echoes the past when numerous producers’ aspirations were shattered during the era of DVD/VCD piracy.
“Regrettably, these pirates have resurfaced, and there appears to be a swift inclination toward supporting their operations. It’s crucial to recognize the substantial financial investments, hard work, and dedication that go into crafting these cinematic pieces.
“While it’s convenient to point fingers at governmental shortcomings, we mustn’t overlook our roles as guardians of ethical consumption.
“Let’s both fight against online piracy and opt for the rightful avenues of watching movies.”
