Money Rituals: Blame Corrupt Politicians, Not Nollywood– DGN President Replies National Assembly

DGN

House of Reps The Nollywood film industry has reacted to the claim by the House of Representatives that the Nigerian movement photo industry was responsible for the new trend of money rituals among young people in the nation.

It has actually been observed that the new trend is rampant amongst the male gender, particularly those from 15 years and above.

Some Nigerians blamed the increasing rate of blood routines on ‘corrupt’ federal governments for failing to supply good management and governance.

The lower chamber had on Wednesday implicated film manufacturers of promoting ritual killings through their movies.

This followed the adoption of a motion of urgent public significance by Toby Okechukwu, the Deputy Minority Leader, at the plenary in Abuja.

Providing the movement, Okechukwu stated that occurrences of ritual killings had actually assumed an alarming rate in Nigeria while decrying the upsurge of reported ritual killings, and abductions in various parts of the nation.

Reacting, however, the National President of Directors Guild of Nigeria, Victor Okhai, explained the claims that Nollywood is responsible as laughable.

He informed press reporters on Friday that the fact that Nollywood acts ritual killings in its movies much like television stations does not make them culpable for the hazard.

He went further to blame the National Assembly for the circumstance, including that they have stopped working to perform their duty and keep looting the nation.

“I discovered the news by the House of Reps saying Nollywood is accountable for rituals laughable. I ask, when newspapers report about routines does that make them responsible for routines or when radio and televisions speak about rituals does that make them culpable?

“You want to know where the genuine issue is, it’s the National Assembly, whenever you stop working and compromise in carrying out your duties.

“Everytime you sit there and share loot you’re accountable, leave Nollywood out of it.”
