Peter Okoye, one of the PSquare brothers has criticised the Federal Government’s plan to stop the shooting of music videos, movies outside the country.

Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed on Saturday said the government is working towards putting an end to the trend.

While responding, Peter said Nigerian artistes have been the ones covering the “shame” politicians
“bring upon the country”.“Another nationality loading,” he added.

You see, isn't it funny that Mr Peter Okoye is only ranting now because it affects him directly. History is replete with cases where the arts have been employed as a tool for change - the memories of the Bob Marleys and the Felas come to mind.

I can hardly recall a tune made good by all these crop of Nigerian artistes addressing our current political quagmire. Save for just a few, and I AM NOT SURE, if Peter is among those.

You see, for some reason, if you only sing about female body parts and love peddling because that is where your 'ministry' (market) is, then you are only a part of the problem. You are as good as the politician who's "Nash" you claim to cover, because you are all out to fill your stomachs through "any which way", socially legit or otherwise.

Promoting immoral behaviour and promiscuity as well as corrupt practices all have a common denominator, which is moral decadence.

If you employ that talent in lesson-based songs, addressing social issues, you'd be doing your bit in developing societal conscience in the long run, meaning you would have addressed a significant part of the issues you are ranting about and those rants would have been needless.
Trust me!

From planning to tax beggars to banning the shooting of music videos, this government is really pushing us!

An Igbo saying goes thus: "A man can cook for the entire public to eat. They will certainly eat and enjoy it. But the day the general public will cook for him, he's truly in trouble."

APC members are gradually compelling Nigerians to cook for them.

Well, dem food go soon don!

And the same government does not ban itself from going abroad for medical treatment.
Nigeria is due for destruction.

ANOTHER NATIONALITY LOADING ABI? USELESS FOOL.

WITHOUT NIGERIA YOU'D BE NOTHING.

THE ABROAD YOU GO NOW, COULD YOU AFFORD IT BEFORE NIGERIANS MADE YOU WHAT YOU ARE?

IF OTHER SINGERS ARE COMING UP AND ALL THEY SEE IS YOU AND OTHERS GOING OVERSEAS TO SHOOT VIDEOS AND MIX WITH LIGHT SKINNED WOMEN WHOM YOU LOVE SO MUCH, WHAT SORT OF ENCOURAGEMENT/MESSAGE DOES THAT GIVE THEM?

EWU. ABROAD LOVER.

...this is preposterous!you fight it out in court,because is a breach of rights to international trade. Under the UN charter you cannot curtail human rights that is subversive to human survival and freedom.

most of this artists don't pay tax . yet they fit para for Fg.
Fg self is like putting a cart before the horse.
if they had put the Tourism industry in place then shooting movies outside Nigeria would be inevitable.

The type of silly government we have today in Nigeria.

Soon, they will say they are working on a bill to stop Nigerians speaking English in Nigerian movies. It is just crazy the type of things they focus on when there are many responsible issues they can address.

Oya, they should ban the music nah. The Nigerians will quickly adopt citizenship of Tanzania and still shoot their video where they like and their fans will still watch. Shebi they will change dual citizenship laws because of artists? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

Is this a threat? He can change his nationality to Gabonese for all I care.

But, one must admit that the things that top this govt's priority list at times are amazing. So forcing artistes to shoot music videos locally automatically solves all our raging problems, particularly at this time. I wonder what Mr Lai's reasons for pursuing such an objective could be.
