On the other hand , events preceding 1992, are not well known even though a few have tried to trace the history of Nollywood. Here is an abridged version ( yet richly enlightening) from one of the articles i wrote concerning this subject matter. Film exhibition began to thrive during the Colonial era, with Glover Memorial Hall playing host to a range of memorable films viewed by “potential Nigerians”, in August 1903.
