A Ghanaian television station has come under fire from Nollywood star Nosa Rex for reportedly showing his recently released film without getting his permission.
In a post shared on his official Instagram page, the actor claimed that the unauthorized broadcasts took place just six hours after the movie was posted to YouTube.
Rex conveyed his displeasure with the infringement, emphasizing that such acts devalue the effort and financial commitment made to filmmaking.
