It provides employment for millions of youths, not to mention the number of people taken off the street, and the huge investments. If only the people (in leadership positions) understand what the movie industry can be to Nigeria\u2019s economy, I think the government will see to it that the right structures are put in place, so that the sector can thrive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It is one thing to see (potential); it is a different ball game to do something about it. Imagine me having a production like Shanty Town, and I had to fund it myself. There was no support from anyone. The poor electricity supply is a problem, and the cost of production is very high. There is no way that it favours one.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2022\/12\/28\/ini-edo-omoni-oboli-rejoice-with-uche-jombo-as-she-becomes-american-citizen\/\"><span class=\"s1\">Ini Edo added:<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cI mentioned the government part of it. Another aspect is funding. Funding seems to be a big challenge in the industry but I think things are changing because people can actually walk up to one and say they want to invest (in the industry).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A couple of people have said that to me in recent times since Shanty Town was released.
