Improve Nollywood, don’t ban foreign films, Twitter users tell Desmond Elliot

Nollywood actor and a lawmaker in the Lagos State House of Assembly, Desmond Elliot has called for the federal government to place a ban on foreign films.

Elliot made this remark during an interview with HipTV.

He likened the banning of foreign films to how the federal government banned rice.

Elliot said “The federal government need to consciously and intentionally focus on improving this industry. Treat it like you’re importing rice,  ban all foreign content, make it difficult for all foreign content to come in, so the local content can grow”.

However, some Nigerians took to Twitter to react to the actor’s opinion
