Nigeria's vibrant media and entertainment sector, affectionately dubbed "Nollywood," burst onto the scene in 1992 and has since blossomed into the world's second most prolific film industry. With an impressive output of approximately 2,500 movies annually, Nollywood has garnered global acclaim for its mastery across various disciplines, including scriptwriting, direction, acting, and production. Its influence extends far beyond Nigeria's borders, establishing itself as a prominent player on the international stage with key production hubs in Lagos, Onitsha, Enugu, Asaba, and Abuja. In tandem with Nollywood's rise to fame, Nigeria's music industry has emerged as a powerhouse, boasting a workforce of around one million individuals and contributing over $8 billion to the economy as of 2021. The industry's prowess has been underscored by notable achievements, such as Grammy wins by acclaimed artists like Wizkid and Burnaboy, further fueling interest and investments from both local and global stakeholders.
