Mo Abudu denies cinema sabotage claims amid industry debate

EbonyLife Group founder Mo Abudu has dismissed allegations that Nigerian cinemas deliberately sabotage certain Nollywood films, insisting that screening decisions are driven by audience turnout and business realities, not favouritism. Speaking on Arise Television alongside actress Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, Abudu addressed rising complaints from producers like Toyin Abraham, Niyi Akinmolayan and Ini Edo, who accuse some cinemas of sidelining their movies with poor time slots, reduced screens and attempts to divert viewers to rival titles. Omotola acknowledged that she has repeatedly heard such complaints from actors and fans who say they were pressured to watch different films from the ones they intended to see. Abudu stressed that she could not defend all operators but maintained that EbonyLife Cinemas does not engage in such practices and operates strictly as a professional, profit driven venture.

Fathia Balogun denies rift with Funke Akindele

Actress and filmmaker Fathia Balogun has dismissed claims that she is in conflict with fellow Nollywood star Funke Akindele.​ The rumours started after Funke sent Fathia a warm birthday message on February 5 and Fathia replied in Yoruba with “Ose Iya Ibeji,” meaning “thank you, mother of twins.” A blogger later suggested the exchange looked awkward, implying there was tension between the two actresses.​ Fathia has now rejected that narrative, accusing bloggers of creating unnecessary drama and spreading false stories about her relationships.​ Speaking in a live video, she warned bloggers to stop interfering in her personal and professional life. She stressed that Funke’s message was genuine and that her own response was polite and affectionate, not a sign of any problem.​ Fathia and Funke have previously been linked to controversy after reports that Funke unfollowed and blocked Fathia on […]

Kunle Afolayan: I’ll only return to cinemas with better promo, fairer earnings

Filmmaker Kunle Afolayan says he is reluctant to return to releasing films in cinemas unless promotional demands become less exhausting and more sustainable for filmmakers.​ Speaking at the Lagos Business of Film Summit, he recalled how he was among the pioneers of the modern cinema movement in Nigeria, doing extensive publicity runs as far back as 2006, including dancing and heavy appearances in London and locally. He said the experience was draining and he no longer wants to repeat that model.​ Afolayan explained that he has new projects ready but is waiting for better, less stressful ways to market them. “I want to make a film if you can guarantee I don’t have to dance to sell that film.

Bimbo Ademoye wins YouTube copyright battle over film soundtrack

Actress and filmmaker Bimbo Ademoye has celebrated a major win in a YouTube copyright dispute involving her film Where Love Lives. She said she felt deep gratitude and relief after the contested claim was finally resolved in her favour.​ In an emotional Instagram post, Ademoye thanked her mother, her friends, her creative team and her loyal online “cyber family” for rallying behind her. She praised fans for relentlessly reporting the infringing content and the individual behind it until the wrongful claim was taken down across platforms.​ The dispute began when someone using the fake alias Emmanuel Davies allegedly uploaded a song from Where Love Lives to digital platforms like Spotify and then filed a copyright claim against her YouTube upload. The track, however, is fully owned by Ademoye with the artist’s consent, and the false claim led to a strike, demonetisation and diversion […]

Teniola Aladese urges women to live independently before marriage

Actress Teniola Aladese has stressed the importance of women achieving independence before marriage, calling it a crucial foundation for a successful union. Speaking on the “That’s What She Said” podcast, she said women who live alone before tying the knot better understand their preferences, boundaries and responsibilities.​ Aladese noted that many women move straight from their parents’ homes to their husbands’ houses without any prior experience of independent living. She warned that this can lead to culture shock, emotional strain and, in some cases, regret when unexpected habits and mannerisms surface in marriage.​ According to her, living alone helps women know themselves, identify what they like and decide the “nonsense” they are willing or unwilling to tolerate in a relationship. She argued that such independence builds maturity, self‑awareness and resilience, which she believes are essential for healthy, sustainable marriages.​ Aladese added that […]
