The construction of the Nollywood village is part of the activities slated to mark the industry's 2 decades of existence. The location of the village would be announced during the anniversary.
"We want to set up the Nollywood house, build a magnificent edifice with the inscription `Nollywood' on it as they have in other climes, so that when anybody comes to Nigeria, there is a place they can go and say this is Nollywood village and can get what they want in one place."
"We have been operating from our homes, so we should have a base where we can be located, we want a place that can contain television actors, different guild associations, creative designers and so many others in the same environment.
He also disclosed that a Nollywood Foundation will also be set up. "We can't keep on running to government for everything, even when the older ones are sick or any one of us; we have to do a lot by ourselves, but if help comes, no problem. The foundation will still be in the same village, so that coordination would be easier."
