According to her, the full details of all productions intended by movie producers must be well and thoroughly researched to motivate viewers and engender a clear understanding of the consequences and sanctions relating to their chosen action and behaviour in society.
“Movie-making is actually a huge business which without a doubt requires concerted efforts. However, our film video must be rich in moral value and above all, devoid of indecency, obscenity, vulgar language and scenes. We are the sum of what we see, hear and do,” Mrs. Agbaminoja said.
On her part, the President, Association of Movie Producers, Mrs. Peace Anyiam-Osigwe, stated that the Association is ever ready to improve on its standard always, adding that her mandate as the first female President is to ensure that movie producers improve on their worth, skills and techniques.
