Emeka Rollas cautions actors on social media disputes

Outgoing national president of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Emeka Rollas, has warned Nollywood actors against using social media to air grievances and fight personal battles. In an official notice shared on Instagram, Rollas said the Guild will sanction members who call out colleagues, drag others online or turn social media into a courtroom, in line with AGN’s constitution and disciplinary procedures. He stressed that so‑called social media trials do not bring justice but instead deepen divisions, spread misinformation and damage the image and integrity of Nollywood. He urged actors to use recognised internal channels, committees and processes to resolve disputes.

Kannywood stars told to protect image in digital age

A new conversation around Kannywood is highlighting why reputation and digital visibility have become crucial for the northern Nigerian film industry. Industry observers say Kannywood can no longer afford scandals, poor quality output or weak online presence if it wants to compete with Nollywood and attract global audiences.​ Commentators note that streaming platforms, social media and short video apps now shape how actors and filmmakers are perceived. This means performers’ off screen behaviour, public statements and digital footprints can either build trust with viewers and brands or damage the entire industry’s image.​ Analysts also argue that better organisation, professional conduct and strategic branding are now as important as storytelling and acting talent. They say Kannywood must show that it can reflect northern values responsibly while still producing commercially viable, modern entertainment.​ Digitalisation is seen as both a risk and an […]
