Ramsey Nouah wants govt to build 774 cinema houses

Nollywood actor Ramsey Nouah has decried the dearth of cinema houses in the nation, blaming the retarded growth of the movie industry on the development.

In an interview with NAN, the celebrity said the Nigerian constitution prescribes one cinema house in each of the 774 local government areas of the country.

He said cinema houses should be built to address societal ills and boost the nation’s economy.

“When we have a cinema house in each of the 774 local government areas in the country, a good number of Nigerians will no longer battle with unemployment,” he said.

“Poverty will equally be a thing of the past and the entertainment industry will experience dramatic improvement.

“Every local government must have a viewing centre as stated in the constitution to further boost the entertainment industry.”
