Nollywood Icon, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde has expressed her reservations about the ban placed on critically acclaimed movie Fifty Shades of Grey by the Nigerian Film & Video Censors Board.
Speaking with HipTV, Omotola described the move as “a little harsh”.
“I don’t agree that the level of nudity and erotic scenes in the movie ought to be. But then, you know, romance and love is a part of life, but the explicit nature of the movie is what I don’t get; must it be that raw? I agree if that’s why the Censors Board banned it because we don’t want that in our society. But, I still believe there should be movies for specific types of audiences and 50 Shades of Grey is one of such. The movie is all about sex and erotic stuffs, so when you’re going in, you know exactly what you came to watch,” Omotola stated.
