No more senatorial allowance
The guy is still owing 10 billion debt to banks without servicing it.

Common sense is not common even to Ben Murray-Bruce
Silverbird started long before he became senator.

Do people still visit cinemas these days?

When most people now have DSTV and giant LED TVs at home undecided. The truth is cinema business is no longer as profitable as it used to be in the 70s, 80s and 90s
you missed Netflix.

The cinema experience is unique on its own. You visit the cinema when you're bored of home. Need a change of scenery. Want to socialise... for date, hang out.

I went here in 2014 and it was an amazing experience. I guess poor management caused the downfall

With my love for outdoor life and my passion for entertainment, I think I may go into cinema biz in the future. North America or any of the tourist cities like Bangkok.

The asset was seized on political grounds.
Same year it was seized. The Port Harcourt Mall came up with everything Silverbird was providing including the Film House Cinema

AMCON must be responsible for the abandonment.

How do you take over an asset without running it to generate funds to pay for itself ?

If shopping kioks are erected on the property, there is no way the theater will be out of use...

Some of you guys will just come online to yarn dust... Most of the highest gross movies in Nigeria today are made from the Cinemas. Mo Abudu of Ebony life made over a 100Million from Wedding Party Movie alone.

Post Covid, Funke Akindele gross over 500Million from Omo-Getto via Cinema � recently.

So alaye Jazzman, talk � your shit with fact and stop miseducating yourself.
The guy is so ignorant.

It is a one stop shop. It has Cinemas, shopping gallery, eatery, etc. I think it was the location that affected it negatively

That location is a bad spot at night.... Criminal hideouts

It was not profitable partly because of the location.

I was in PH some years back and I visited the cinema. We were only 4 or 5 inside, watching the movie.

Asked someone and he told me that area is prone to robbery that people often avoid it.
So because of Petty thieves and bag snatchers a business will fail? As big as Silverbird they can't pay mobile policemen to guard the area at night? Even Spar has mobile policemen around despite how safe the place it because it's adjacent to govt house. That's not an excuse abeg.

Nigeria is a wasteful country

We seize and asset but rather than put it to use or manage it and take the proceeds, they prefer to allow it rot

Perfect example, Chelsea Hotel in Abuja seized from Dipreye.


At least, the previous owner was paying taxes, employing people and creating value...What is the abandoned structure doing
Thats naija for you.
An indebted business, assets sized by gov agencies eg efcc. The shut them down and ensure the assets depreciate in value or vandalised. They later sell them off for peanuts to cronies.

I tell you! cultism is the bane of that town. this cinema was shut down because of insecurity by those cultists robbing and harassing both movie viewers and staff of the place. that made people to stop going there.
