War against piracy gets hotter

Life for entertainment pirates might just not be the same again since movie producer, actor and director Kunle Afolayan’s outburst over the endemic issue some three weeks ago. Kunle’s outburst came on the back of the fact that his latest movie, October 1, which he went through so much physical, emotional and financial stress to produce, was being threatened to be released by pirates. Amd after his outburst which was steeped in tribalism, another notable entertainment personality, Yemi Sodimu, took it upon himself to start seizing copies of pirated movies he sees on sale. He did so for at least one day and proudly flaunted the resultant pictures from his feat online. Sodimu hasn’t stopped at that however. This week, he organized a walk against piracy and several entertainers, including Kunle, as well as Kehinde Bankole and Gabosky, joined him to register their displeasure at it. Is this the beginning of the final revolt against piracy? Some people are surely wishing it is.
