Nollywood actress and filmmaker Toyin Abraham has urged Nigerians to avoid pirating her latest movie, Alakada: Bhad and Boujee. She recounted an incident where a fan was caught recording the film during a cinema screening.
In a post shared on her X page, Abraham revealed that the individual deleted the footage after being confronted, and she decided to let them go without further action.
“We caught someone recording Alakada: Bhad and Boujee at the cinema. They deleted it, and I asked them to let the person go,” she stated.
However, the actress warned she would not intervene again if anyone is caught attempting to pirate her work in the future. “Please stop recording. If they catch anyone, I won’t interfere next time. I’m so tired,” she pleaded.
Fans have since shown their support on social media, emphasizing the importance of respecting intellectual property and legally supporting the film industry.
Alakada: Bhad and Boujee is the latest installment in Abraham’s popular Alakada series and has grossed N134 million in its first week.
