Nollywood actress, Omoni Oboli, has expressed outrage over Ghanaian TV stations allegedly airing her movies without obtaining the necessary licenses.
In a strongly-worded social media post, Oboli threatened to take action against the offending TV stations, stating that they had shown a “blatant disregard for my intellectual property”.
Oboli also criticized the Ghana National Film Authority for “failing to take decisive action against such unauthorized acts” and questioned their effectiveness in regulating the industry and protecting creators’ rights.
Emphasizing the immense effort and dedication that goes into producing her movies, including countless sleepless nights, the 46-year-old actress said “I love my Ghanaian besties, colleagues and friends. I really do, but you see those TV stations in Ghana, I’m coming for you!
“The guts to show my movies without licensing! If dem no arrest one of una, you won’t learn! Watch out! Coming for every one of you!
“You have no idea how much work goes into these projects! The sleepless nights I have! I’m coming for it all! You will pay for every one of my movies you have shown without permission! In 2025, you don’t understand that’s IP theft?
“Maybe you don’t have a television authority in Ghana, but that’s not my concern! Coming for you all! Clowns!
“Thanks, my Ghanaian besties, for always sending me screenshots!”
