Kanayo O. Kanayo’s scathing comments on the current state of the Nollywood industry highlight several concerning issues that have plagued the once-thriving Nigerian film industry.

Kanayo’s assertion that “movie roles are now collected in hotel rooms” directly addresses the alarming issue of corruption and unethical practices that have crept into the industry. The insinuation that roles are being traded in private, behind-closed-door settings, rather than earned through merit and talent, is a damning indictment of the industry’s lack of transparency and professional standards.

Furthermore, Kanayo’s observation that “movies keep getting worse” and the prevalence of “new and still learning” actors is a reflection of the declining quality of Nollywood productions. The industry’s emphasis on quantity over quality has led to a proliferation of subpar films that fail to captivate audiences and uphold the standards of the craft.

Kanayo’s candid remarks about the prevalence of drug use and unethical behavior within the industry are equally concerning. The notion that “actors and artistes now are into drugs” and that there is a culture of exploitation, where “man dey knack man,” paints a bleak picture of the industry’s moral and ethical landscape
