Popular filmmaker, Niyi Akinmolayan, has threatened to name some cinemas practising what sounds like fraud on his new film, ‘Color of Fire’.
According to him, they sell tickets to viewers online but later tell them the movies were no more showing at the specified time.
He alleged in a post on Instagram: “I already have three and you know yourselves!! If you don’t fix up today, I will post your cinemas and the names of your managers!!!
“If by end of day, you don’t fix up, I am going to name all the cinemas that have ‘Colours Of Fire’ on their website, collected money from people and are refusing to show them the film.
“Cinemas have the right to decide their own showtimes. In fact, they can choose not to show a film if they don’t like it. What they must not do is make people buy tickets, come to cinema and then tell them the film isn’t showing. It’s deliberate and it’s wicked. Not on my watch!”
