He explained further that cinemas had limited content to exhibit in the month of February, as movie producers avoided releasing movies during the election period.

“A couple of reasons are responsible for the drop in sales. We lost a weekend of sales during the Presidential and National Assembly elections, Nigerians’ attention was focused on voting across the country.”

“Cash crunch and POS failures, affecting trading generally is also affecting the cinemas.

“Many movie producers and distributors avoided releasing movies during the election period. So, content was also somewhat limited,” he said.

Ajayi said the top films exhibited in cinemas across the country in February were “Antman” and “Love in a pandemic”.

He listed films to watch out for in the month of March as : “Creed III”, “What love got to do with it”, “Shazam fury of the gods”, “John Wick iv”, “Different strokes” and “Dungeons and Dragons83”
