Veteran actor Chief Femi Branch has shed light on the challenges some of his colleagues are facing with cinemas.
Speaking on the issue, he revealed his frustration over how cinemas treat certain filmmakers, suggesting that favoritism might be at play, possibly due to bribes or other incentives.
Expressing his anger, he accused cinema operators of deliberately misleading audiences by aggressively promoting certain films as “trending” while sidelining others, effectively hiding them from potential viewers.
Fans who went to the cinema to watch the movie also confirmed that what he his saying was true and that how they behave towards them too

Thetimo wrote: Chief, it is ironic how you began a video to speak for fairness with a bias. This is a systemic problem in Nigeria which is traceable to corruption and poverty in the land. You might have witnessed a cinema pitching against your preferred movie, which is truly unfair and should be discouraged but it doesn’t mean that there are not several other cinemas pitching in favour of your movie while pitching against that of others. Address the situation with no prejudice, then your intentions would have been pure and efforts applaudable. Inability to eliminate personal bias wrecks this effort. Also, your timing very loudly suggests more of resentment about a colleague, not quite about the situation you claim to address.
My honour and regards sir.

What if the producer of the movie knows nothing about and she is just doing her business and hustle with open heart,? This video will surely bring more hatred and beef among the industry, sometimes voicing out is nit the solution but reconciliation among the filmmakers and producers, there is competitions amongst them and we know the one winning is the one with more love and hatred
