“Twenty years after bursting from the grungy street markets of Lagos, the $500 million Nigerian movie business churns out more than a thousand titles a year on average, and trails only Hollywood and Bollywood in terms of revenues.

They are seldom seen in the developed world, but all over Africa consumers snap up the latest releases from video peddlers for a dollar or two.”
