The story of Nigerian cinema begins during the colonial era, when films like “Palaver” (1926) and “Sanders of the River” (1935) first graced the screens, featuring Nigerian actors. Back then, movies were not just entertainment but also tools for spreading messages, especially by missionaries who used them for religious propaganda.
