Ali Nuhu, director of the Nigerian Film Corporation and esteemed actor, emphatically asserts that elevating the quality of Nigerian filmmaking is paramount to revitalizing the nation’s integrity.
In a recent interview with BBC Hausa, the actor underscored that a mere 35 per cent of Nigerian films presently adhere to the requisite quality standards.
However, he passionately advocates for raising this benchmark to a robust 70 to 75 per cent, emphasizing the critical role quality plays in Nigeria’s image restoration.

Ali Nuhu said:
If you look at the films we produce in Nigeria’s film industry, you would see that only 30-35 per cent meet desired quality as against 70-75 per cent.
“So I will focus on this by making sure we are more educated and the provisions of quality equipment.
“We have ambition of transforming the industry into one of the world best because we don’t need quantity, what we need most is quality over quantity.”
“Some bad eggs among the industry have given Nigeria a bad name, so through these films, we will restore our integrity,” he added.
