“Most of the movies we are putting out on #Netflix are becoming painful to see,” he said.

The actor urged movie producers to desist from producing movies that viewers would detest, adding that such opportunity should be utilised to reach the world.

“Everybody want their ‘shit’ on Netflix – I suspect for $$$ and bragging rights. I hope creative producers/directors/writers will start putting out good movies for them to save us the shame and ridicule that can befall #Nollywood before it is too late.

“Lazy and predictable storylines, horrible extras, disastrous costumes, etc. This opportunity is golden!” he said.

Bobby, who is based in Canada, made his acting debut in 2011.
