In 2025, Ikeade of @WKM_Up reached out to me and asked, “Why don’t you conduct your own research on audience consumption?” And here we are today, with a study spanning five countries, in collaboration with GIZ, Afreximbank and the wonderful people at Dalberg Media.

I AM SO FUCKING ANGRY!!!! I would rather control my emotions and not tweet what I really want to say. I cried yesterday about this same issue and today, I have no tears left. We need to do better as an industry and as a people.

Pleased to have contributed our 2025 audience survey and industry insights to this report. And if you’re curious about the different ways we cover the Nigerian film industry, here’s a look at our industry toolkit in the next tweet

The short's actual screening date was today, and guess what? It didn't screen today. Mind you, it's not even the only film that didn't screen today. Also, I'm currently watching a foreign language film with no subtitles. Second time this week.

Maybe it's time to semi-break my silence. I sat for a feature doc on Tuesday and found myself watching a short. The short turned out to be my favourite film at afriff, so that's a positive. But the organisers kept insisting that it was in fact the feature that screened. Anyway...

That's how yet another filmmaker thinks their documentary is showing right now. Turns out masterclasses are more important than the actual films.

Are we at the stage where it's a stupid question to even ask if somebody is going to do something about this or can we still hope? 😩😩

We were watching Lady, screen went off. Didn’t come back on. Then they started screening another film cos they have a schedule. I’m asking and I am being met with hostility and this is why I never bother with Afriff. And I’m so mad cos I came here specifically for this

Screen blinking every other second. Can't watch a film without incident at this festival. I don't know if it's AFRIFF or Filmhouse, but at some point, you people should be tired of the incompetence. You're not the first to do festival.
