<h4>Mo Abudu Dismisses Claims Of Cabals Influencing Cinema Slots In Nollywood</h4>
<p> ;</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a></strong> reports that founder and CEO of Ebonylife Group, Mo Abudu, has refuted claims that secretive groups or “cabals” within Nollywood collude with cinema owners to manipulate film screening schedules.</p>
<p>In recent times, some Nigerian filmmakers and cinema-goers have alleged that certain movies are being unfairly sidelined.</p>
<p>Reports have suggested that cinema staff sometimes steer audiences away from their preferred films toward others, or that scheduled movies are replaced with more popular titles.</p>
<p>Speaking on Arise TV, Mo Abudu addressed these concerns, emphasizing that cinema operations are driven by business considerations, not favoritism or insider deals.</p>
<p>“There is no cabal. This is not about sentiment or favouritism; it is about return on investment.</p>
<p>If a film cannot fill seats, it will be replaced no matter who owns it. If I am running air-conditioning, paying staff, and only two or three people are sitting in a 100-seat cinema, that film will lose its slot. It is purely business,” she explained.</p>
<p>Supporting the perspective, actor, director, singer, and philanthropist Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde also affirmed the business-driven nature of cinema operations.</p>
<p>Ultimately, Mo Abudu and Omotola JaladeâEkeinde’s statements reinforce that Nollywood’s cinema operations are driven by business realities and professionalism, not favoritism or secret alliances.</p>
<p>Their combined voices call for transparency, accountability, and a focus on quality filmmaking, reminding both industry players and audiences that success in cinema comes from merit, not rumor.</p>
