"I think the industry needs is a strong leadership with a code of conduct and every other thing will fall in place. It is only in Nollywood that people come in without following the rules.

"The re-positioning of the industry will begin when we start to define rules to guide actions of members so that those who come in will feel that they have to be checked and not behave anyhow. The fault is in ourselves

"I do hope that the movie industry would return to those glorious days when practitioners were known for creativity and not this mad chase for money at the expense of good work. Nollywood should earn respect from viewers and fans and not to be seen as an organization
of loose women and men, drug addicts or home destroyers," she advised.
