The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi has assured
Nollywood filmmakers of free use of trains to shoot their films across the
country.
According to him, the world must see what President
Muhammadu Buhari is doing in infrastructure.
Amaechi said, “The film project is a beautiful idea. It will
engage the people meaningfully, provide entertainment and grow the economy.
“We have to do this because what the President is doing in
infrastructure should be shown to the world.”
The minister said train facilities would be provided to the
movie producers at no cost, which will, in turn, boost the image of Nigeria.
“We have to grant them that approval of using the train, so
the world will know that we are delivering on our campaign promises.
“We’re happy they are doing it and that is why we will be
willing to always grant them the approval of the train anytime they wish to use
it,” he added.
Amaechi said this as he hosted the Chief Executive of Native
Media, Mr Rogers Ofime and his crew members in Abuja.
