        It is a poll, not a declaration

        Ok.The government should consult widely before making such declaration that would likely harm Nigeria's movie industry,in the long run.

        Incentives, incentives, incentives are the only legit path to policies such as this.

        If Nigeria desires to remain the socio-economic and cultural emblem of Africa then it needs to overcome protectionist tendencies

        Why should artists be told where to make their art? That's a matter of personal preference.

        IMO if the govt had put all the basic infrastructure in place: light, water, functional roads & rail systems, they'd shoot videos locally

        I think it is perfectly fine to legislate for a percentage of local content and business needs to be encouraged through support

        They are supposed to offer incentives to induce producers make movies in Nigeria not issue categorical orders like an autocracy

        Huge own goal. Wrong time. No matter how desirable such a policy is, it is the least of the nation's problem. Easy to do through other means

        Ulterior motives! Political power survives on appointments granting fin & econ access. Those young producers & artists threaten that order

        Is this reciprocal? Trumpism is gaining ground. They could try implementing incentives instead of this short sighted decree

        It depends... if the movies and videos are funded by BOI, but then isn't PMB's Medicare funded with tax payer's money?
