This law will be an issue. There is no proper definition of skit. Also the bureaucracy would be too much.

You should also tear your Nigerian passport and become a citizen of Benin or Togo... The people in Benin and Togo will be the ones watching your skit.
No, I shouldn't tear up my passport. There are thousands of Nigerians living or working in other countries they don't tear up their passports.
Again, I watch skits made in Japan. You don't need to make a skit in Nigeria for people in Nigeria to have access to it. It's called the digital age for a reason.

Most of their skits sucks really bad.
I block straight away.

With skits alone you will see how intelligent a country is. Everybody is now a skit maker.
Inevitable when a country dumps science and technology for art and entertainment. sad

A welcome development. There should also be a law to arrest and jail those putting people's life in danger all the name of skit/prank.
There is nothing welcome in their development. They are only interested in monetary extortion of those who they didn't lay foundation for. Joblessness & frustration is what pushed people into content creation. They are free to arrest those who are harming others in the name of pranks. If i sweat my ass out to create educative & harmless content, no Government is coming to me for extortion !

The government wants to gag content creators.

There will soon be a "Content Creators Gag Bill" in House. grin grin grin grin grin grin

Approval of who?

Who is a content creator?
Is that a job title.. .or anyone that posts anything at all...everything, including this my comment is a content.

Abi them wan gag social media?
That is the goal but there'll be a backlash, worse than the recent one against a so called security levy.

GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA

Face governance.

Let people to share their content so long as they tell the truth.

Though some of these skit makers need to be arrested but these govt people are not smart at all. Under what law are they going to carry out such action?
Facebook or other social media is not govt owned. Whatever people decide to post there is their intellectual property.
Re: FG To Arrest Skit Makers Who Release Content Online Without Approval by Wigetsolar: 1:39pm On Jun 29, 2024
At a time when Facebook just monetised Nigeria and the possible craze to post contents so as to earn Facebook money. 😁

This is where you know our leaders poor in knowledge. They want to arrest people who put stuff on foreign platform that they have no control over.

Don't mind him; he needs to cite which part of the law mandates him to do that.
It's like telling me I have to register with an agency before I can use WhatsApp or Facebook. This is what you get when you put all these northern extremist in positions they're not meant to be.

40% is cheap compared to the rest of the world

You should be praying that happens do they raise and talk and inspire the People to go against bad governance

How much do you think musicians are taxes abroad
Na you claim say you know, tell us. They taxed over 40% abroad? You could have said everyone works and the govt takes everything.

Federal tax alone he 40% in America not to talk about state and local tax

Most incomes from sports and entertainment pay 50% minimum as tax

Am I the only one sniffing civil unrest in Nigeria very soon? Government appointees dey do pass themselves these days and the katakata go reach everyone.

So you're saying that there is triple taxation in the USA on income from entertainment?

My only regret is that there will no longer be skits mocking bad politicians.

Why not. Is the politician same sex


This policy is absolutely right. Stupid pranksters will be put in their place now. Those teaching children vulgar slangs will be disciplined by this policy. Crossdressers too will collect.

But the process of approving such contents should be simplified.

Working in an office that approves such contents will be fun. The workers will be the first to watch every skit.😂

Nigeria just like making laws they can't enforce

How do you define a skit maker? Or a random person posting a video of themselves acting?

This law makes no sense

Instead of you to focus on taxing their streaming earnings by 40% minimum .. This is easier to do, easy to trace and instant revenue generation

But no u want try to control them nig to abuse the president and u would fail making u appear weak
lol, if them come to tax them, u go still complain say bad govt instead of helping there citizen they are killing them with taxation
