The federal government has informed skit makers that it is an offence to release skits without the National Films and Videos Censors Board (NFVCB) classification
The same thing was said to movie producers and producers of music videos.
In May, the NFVCB announced plans to begin classification for audio-visual content like skits and music videos.
Shaibu Husseini, the board’s executive director, maintained that there is a need to ramp up content video classification in Nigeria.
In a statement, the executive director said the NFVCB has initiated plans to create “a world-class classification centre”.
He warned content creators against putting out skits, films, or music videos without classification.
The NFVCB boss added that the board is collaborating with security agencies to track filmmakers found culpable.
“It is also an offence to distribute or exhibit any film or video content including skits and musical videos on any platform without recourse to the National Film and Video Censors Board for classification,” he said.
“The board therefore wishes to state categorically that we are working with relevant security agencies to track the individuals and production companies involved, and will stop at nothing to make sure they face the full wrath of the law.”
The NFVCB also frowned at the promotion and distribution of same-sex content on social media.
“Filmmakers and content creators should be reminded that it is an offence to directly or indirectly make public show (exhibition) of same-sex relationship in Nigeria,” it added.
