A comedian and a producer, Ayo Makun alias AY, has written an open letter to the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr Suleiman Abba on the pirating of his movie. AY, who produced the new movie “30 Days in Atlanta’’ , urged the IGP in the letter to use the machinery at his disposal to identify and arrest those involved in the nefarious act.

The comedian, who made the copy of the letter available to newsmen, said that he had already put some measures in place to curtail the activities of the interlopers to no avail. He said that he had contacted the licensed distributors of the movie, Silverbird Film Distribution; the Director General of the National Copyright Commission (NCC), Mr Afam Ezekude and Ahbu ventures of Alaba market.

“I have always heard of the risk faced by honest producers and loss of revenue due to the activities of the incessant piracy cabals operating freely, without fear of the law in Nigeria.“And within the past few weeks, this has been my experience as I heard of the leak of my movie to various nefarious elements.
“No more should a miscreant be celebrated or allowed to rape intellectual properties of honest hardworking citizens with impunity, while the owners of the property looks on helplessly. “No more should movie producers and other intellectual property owners’ scramble to make the little they can, before the ‘Alaba boys’ get their hands on the content.

Hmmm with Technology comes Challenges.. and with Challenges comes innovation.. it is said that necessity is the mother of invention.. AY.. look for other means to make profit on your movie regardless of the pirates.. you cannot expect a police force that is stretched thin to start arresting millions of alaba boys hawking your movies from Mushin to Okokomaiko and beyond

SAY NO TO PIRACY, THE BANE OF CREATIVITY!
