How Nollywood is Samklef – fueling ritual killings in Nigeria

Music producer cum blogger, Samuel Oguachuba, popularly known as Samklef has blamed the Nigerian film industry popularly known as Nollywood for the surge in ritual killings across the country by young men.

The entertainer said the incessant ritual killings were result of what they watch in Nigerian movies.

“Igbo Nollywood, English and Yoruba movies are the reason why a lot of young boys are doing rituals. They keep promoting fetish stuff in all their movies,” he tweeted.
