| dc.description | A post published to X (Twitter) by the official Federal Ministry of Art, Culture, Tourism and the Creative Economy account (@Fmactce_Nigeria). The post highlights data from the Ministry's Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) Mapping Report, emphasizing that despite Nigeria having the world's second-largest film industry by volume and a population exceeding 200 million, the nation possesses only approximately 80–90 modern cinemas and 300 screens (compared to over 40,000 screens in the United States). It frames this gap not as a cultural deficit, but as a major physical infrastructure and investment opportunity within the creative economy. It provides a link to download the report via nigeriaeverywhere.com/news/news/fmac.... Hashtags included: #NigeriaEverywhere, #Destination2030, #Nollywood, and #DeeperMapping. The attached graphic features a photograph of a cinema audience facing a large projection screen alongside key statistical callouts.
