Sources disclosed to Julia Blaise Blog (JBB) that following the footstep of president Goodluck Jonathan
who donated N3billion to Nigeria filmmakers, Akwa Ibom State Governor, Godswill
Akpabio, has donated the sum of N50 million to the Association of Movie Producers
(AMP), as national executives of the association led by its president, Mr. Zik
Zulu Okafor paid him courtesy call. While presenting the cheque, Akpabio commended
the movie producers for their contributions towards projecting the country’s
image in the most positive light.
The Governor, advised Nollywood to guide against
internal rancor, and applauded the industry for restoring Nigeria’s image at
the global scene, noting that before the advent of Nollywood, the story about
Nigeria was all about fraud.
According to him, Nollywood has done so much that
today, the entire world is watching Nigeria. You have changed the story of
Nigeria. Before Nollywood, the story of Nigeria was all about 419. I am sorry
about the piracy. That was why I applauded what the President did when he
organized a dinner for you to celebrate Nollywood at 20 and made a donation of
about N3 billion to develop the industry. I find out that we should institute a
prize to encourage producers, actors and actresses.
He equally disclosed that he pledged a token to
support the president’s action, as he wants AMP to use the small token to
encourage the growth of the industry.
