The actor expressed that banning such movies is not the right move as he believes it is all about entertainment.
In a new post, the actor went further to emphasise his points that movies are just for show. He also urged that entertainers should be appreciated.
See his tweets below:
Nollywood is not corrupting anybody.
People know it's all entertainment.
Care for the people, give them jobs, improve the economy & crime will reduce.
Someone drinks sniper because of hardship, rather than tackle the hardship you ban sniper.
Does that make sense? https://t.co/RXpHQzEsrH— Yul Edochie (@YulEdochie) February 16, 2020
Entertainers should be appreciated for using entertainment to give the people happiness in the midst of so much suffering in the country.
However I advise movie producers to always make movies that will punish evil doers in the end so the audience will have something to learn.
