A stakeholder in the entertainment industry, Ini Akpabio, has advised the Federal Government to build a Nollywood City to boost entertainment industry in 2017.
The Business mogul said in Lagos on Sunday that the gesture would reposition the Nollywood image of the country.
He decried a situation where Nigeria could not boast of one Nollywood village or city, where practitioners could assemble or meet to exhibit and showcase their talents to the world.
“The National Theatre is a no go area for Nollywood practitioners as the money to access the facility is on the high side.
“It is unfair for a nation like Nigeria not to have a Nollywood city in spite of the great talented practitioners/experts we are blessed with in this country.
“Nigerian movies are widely recognised all over the world; therefore, government should provide the basic needs to boost the industry, “he said.
