Reporting by Punch indicates a group of Nollywood actors—including Ini Edo and Toyin Abraham—have publicly called out cinemas over practices they say disadvantage films and mislead audiences.
The claims quickly turned into a wider creator-versus-exhibitor conversation online, with fans demanding clearer explanations from cinema chains and distributors.
- Punch Newspapers (Punchng.com): “call out cinemas over unfair practices.”
- BusinessDay (Businessday.ng): “allegations of unfair treatment by some cinemas.”
Echotitbits take: As Nollywood scales, operational fairness matters as much as hype. If showtimes and reporting feel inconsistent, the ecosystem risks rewarding only the biggest names—so watch for exhibitor responses and any distributor-led reforms in 2026.
