The Vice Chancellor of National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), Professor Abdalla Uba Adamu has in a new interview with the Hausa Service of the Voice of America revealed that the National University Commission (NUC), recently approved a new degree programme in film production, which aims to stem the present trend of film production that depicts Western culture, while relegating the local cultures and values.
According to the Vice-Chancellor, the new degree programme in film production introduced by NOUN would be best suited to the young secondary school leavers than the professionals currently in the industry.
Mr. Adamu also attributed the reasons both Nollywood and Kannywood movies continue to lag behind in global considerations, the reasons of which the degree programme intends to address.
