The National Films and Videos Censors Board, NFVCB, has warned that releasing music videos, skits and films without its classification is an offence.
The NFVCB’s classification system assigns age ratings and content advisories to audiovisual content, aiding families in making informed viewing choices and protecting children from unsuitable material.
The NFVCB Director General, SHAIBU HUSSEINI had earlier in an interview with newsmen announced the extension of the board’s classification requirements to include music videos and skits.
In a statement made available to newsmen on Wednesday, HUSSEINI warned content creators against the distribution of unclassified material.
Also the board condemned the promotion and distribution of same sex content on the internet, noting that it was illegal to publicly exhibit same sex relationships in Nigeria.
