Nigerian cinemas made N441 million in March: CEAN
On Monday, the Cinema Exhibitors Association of Nigeria (CEAN) said it generated N441 million from tickets sold across the country in March.
The national chairman of CEAN, Opeyemi Ajayi, disclosed this while speaking with journalists in Lagos.
Mr Ajayi said the total admission of viewers into cinemas across the federation for the period under review was 174,071.
“For March, we had total sales of N441,752,914 across all cinemas with 174,071 viewers admission into cinemas. Sales in March were encouraging compared with February, when we recorded total sales of N278 million due to activities of the presidential and National Assembly elections, as well as the national problem of cash crunch,” the CEAN chair revealed.
Mr Ajayi added, “For April, we will be showing Super Mario Bros, Domitila, Bloomboys, Honey Money, Renfield and The Pope’s exorcist.”
