DESMOND ELLIOT WANT FG TO BAN FOREIGN MOVIES FROM ENTERING INTO NIGERIA.{PHOTOS}.

        Nollywood actor, Desmond Elliot has called for the federal government to place a ban on foreign films.

Elliot made this remark during an interview with Nigerian cable television channel, HipTV. The Nollywood star, who also doubles as a lawmaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, wants the government to be intentional about the film industry and handle it “like you’re importing rice” by placing a ban on foreign content.

“First they need to create an enabling environment for this industry to thrive. Secondly, they need to consciously, intentionally focus on building the industry. Treat it like you’re importing rice. Okay, you know, so you ban all foreign content. You know, make it difficult for foreign content to come in, so your local content can grow.”.

My Take:
 Dear Honourable Desmond Elliot,if you want the Federal Government to ban Hollywood or other foreign movies,put it in mind that our own Nollywood movies might also be banned in Hollywood and in other foreign countries which will affect sales.Why not concentrate on improving the story lines of our movies ,give room for new actors and actresses,and also use good cameras.Less I forget,since you are part of the government,encourage the government to invest in the movie sector.Thank you and God bless.
