Bovi and rap artiste and actor, Folarin ‘Falz’
Falana are not happy! The reason for this about a proposed bill which
advocates the formation of the Motion Picture Practitioners Council of
Nigeria (MOPICON), the bill would ensure that only those who are members
can post motion pictures on the social media. Trust Bovi, he will
always post videos on any of the social media platforms and may not want
someone to hover around him like a vulture.
It was during the 4th
edition of the Nigerian Entertainment Conference held at the Landmark
Convention Centre, Oniru, Lagos, on April 20th 2016, that the matter was
seriously criticized and rejected
‘Falz said “How can you say if
someone wants to post motion pictures on YouTube, Instagram or facebook
they have to join a council? The MOPICON Bill is ridiculous” he queried.
Bovi and many other entertainers insisted that it will restrict
creativity. This bill was initiated 10 years ago and was supposed to
regulate the quality of Nollywood movie production but it was suspected
that someone doctored it.
The majority have the final say in the
matter and the bill didn’t survive the day. Now, Bovi and Falz can now
do as they wish when it comes to posting motion videos online.
