Kunle Afolayan’s movie distributor and marketer, Gabosky
has opened up on the ongoing war against movie piracy in
Nigeria .
Gabosky, an Igbo man took a swipe at his people selling
pirated movies in Alaba International market and throughout
Nigeria.
The popular movie marketer who is also an Igbo man said
his people are solely responsible for movie piracy in Nigeria .
Hear what he said in a recent interview;
‘When I went in to fight this group in Alaba, we had a fight that
lasted for two hours. I am telling you that when I went into
Ubakason Plaza and Obosi Plaza; the den of these pirates, 99
per cent of the people that are trading there are Igbos so I don’t
know why you just want to take criminality and start joining it
with politics.
“I am bitter. I am frustrated. Kunle Afolayan is also bitter and
frustrated. Kunle is like somebody whose wife has been slept
with by somebody else and you find out that the man who slept
with his wife has a tribe and he is complaining about what the
tribe did to him and you are now asking him why he is
mentioning a tribe. Continue…
Nobody is addressing the fact that this man borrowed over
N150 million to shoot a film and has not gotten a Naira back
and he is showcasing his frustration; telling everybody; ‘Look at
what I am facing’ yet nobody is asking him about his pains or
the challenges he is faced with. Let me tell you what he is
facing – Kunle Afolayan shot a movie and gave the movie to an
Igbo man called Gabosky who owns G Media to distribute. The
man produced the movie and brought it into the market. I came
back to him and told him what I was facing; that the movie was
being pirated and that I needed to find out what was going on.
I went round the country because I have outlets in all the states
and found out that the movies were being pirated and I began
compiling names and I can tell you that the names I compiled
did not have the name of a single Yoruba man in it. They are all
Igbos and I have the list.” CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
The Little investigation you have done is not enough to label Igbos as pirates! Since you have the list of the pirates why don't you complain to the Police? It is like saying that Yorubas are mad people because the few mad people I saw in Lagos are all Yorubas.
ReplyDeleteYou guys should be sincere with yourselves. Ibos are the originators of most fake things in Nigeria including piracy.
