Funke Akindele has released a heartfelt video urging her fans and followers to help combat piracy in cinemas.
In the video, she pleads with moviegoers to speak out if they notice anyone attempting to record the movie with their phone or camera while at the cinema.
She also emphasized the significant costs involved in producing the film, including payments to crew members, and urged fans to consider these efforts to prevent her from incurring financial losses.
Netizens took it personally as they started calling out the names of their colleagues who are fond of doing that whenever he/she went to the cinema.

So I feel the strong security measures should be on the cinema people.. have agreement with them if you see any platform with te film you will sue… by this, it will help them caution their workers

This woman invested so much on this project
I dreamt about all this last night and I was so scared. I pray their plans will never work, your movie will be a successful sold out.
