Can Buhari save Nollywood from pirates?

Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari has vowed to save Nollywood, the country's entertainment industry, from pirates. The industry is worth $5bn, but filmmakers still struggle to make a profit because of illegal copies. Kunle Afolayan - a Nigerian award-winning actor and filmmaker, whose latest film is October One, welcomes the move.
