Femi Adebayo Triumphs Over Piracy as He Sues Media Company That Used His Movie, Awarded the Sum of 25 Million

Nollywood actor Femi Adebayo took to Instagram to share uplifting news with his colleagues. He recounted his successful battle against a media company that unlawfully used his movie "Survival of Jelili" for their own gain.


Adebayo highlighted the challenges faced by the Nigerian film industry due to piracy, which hampers the industry's growth and discourages investors. Through persistence and legal action, he emphasized the importance of protecting intellectual property rights.


He detailed his experience with the media company, which used his movie poster and title to promote a different film, leading to revenue loss. Despite a three-year legal battle, Adebayo remained resolute in seeking justice.


With the support of his legal team, he presented compelling evidence and won the case, being awarded Twenty-Five Million Naira. Adebayo sees this victory not only as his own but as a win for all of Nollywood, emphasizing the need to combat intellectual property theft and piracy to ensure fair compensation for creators.
