Lai Mohammed, minister of information and culture, says streaming services must include local content on their platforms if they want to do business in Nigeria.Speaking at the closing ceremony of the Zuma Film Festival in Abuja on Saturday, Mohammed said content developers will be able to reap the benefits of their work if this is done.
The minister said the Nigerian film industry is an important platform for showcasing Nigerian arts and culture to the world.“Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, as we celebrate the astronomical growth of our film industry, we must also critically examine whether the creative minds behind this phenomenal growth have reaped the benefits of their hard work,” he said.
“In order to boost the exhibition revenues of the film industry, we have partnered with the CBN and the Bankers Committee on the renovation of the National Theatre at a cost of $100 million,” he said. “This is important because the iconic National Theatre was conceived as the hub of the Creative industry in Nigeria.
“Its renovation and the addition of four new hubs, including an international film production facility that covers production and post-production, will signify the restoration of the power of the industry and its preparation to play its huge role for Nigeria into the future.”
