5 reasons Nollywood movies don’t stay long in cinemas

Why do you think most Nollywood movies don’t stay long in cinemas?

 

The Nigerian cinema has presented us with movies like "Beyond Blood," "Affairs of the Heart," "Suru L'ere, " "Just Not Married," "ATM," "The Novelist," "Wives on Strike," "Entreat," "Fusion," "Stalker" among others.

As boring as I think "Allegiant" is, the movie still found a way to stay longer than most of the above mentioned Nollywood movies.

I have realized that most Nigerian movies don’t stay past three weeks in the cinemas, while movies like “Zootopia," "Kung Fu Panda," "Batman vs Superman," "Gods of Egypt" struggle to leave Nigerian cinemas.

For starters, it's a known fact that every unsuccessful movie doesn’t get to stay long in the cinema. So, I should be focusing on why Nigerian movies are unsuccessful in the cinema, leading to their short stay.
