Buhari Charges Security Agencies To Crack Down On Nollywood Movie Pirates by Dani4tech(m): 9:13am On Jul 15, 2015
Statement from the
Presidency...

Pesident Muhammadu
Buhari has directed law
enforcement agencies to step up their efforts to curb the menace of pirates in Nigeria's entertainment
industry so that artistes can enjoy the fruits of their
labour.

President Buhari
gave the directive after
receiving a briefing from the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Information, Dr.Folasade Yemi-Esan and her Directors Tuesday in Abuja.

“Nollywood is making
progress. We should work with them. Unless they are backed, they will be ruined by pirates who want to reap where they have not sowed.
"They have built an industry with their own sweat. It is therefore incumbent on us to give them the necessary support,” President Buhari said.

He charged law enforcement agencies to identify the perpetrators of copyright piracy, their
sponsors and collaborators, and bring them to justice.

President Buhari also
charged the Nigeria
Television Authority (NTA)
and the Federal Radio
Corporation of Nigeria
(FRCN) to tap into the
opportunities presented by their wide reach to shore up their revenue profiles.
