Nollywood actress Omoni Oboli calls out Ghanaian TV stations for airing her films without licence
Renowned Nigerian actress Omoni Oboli has taken to social media to express her outrage and disappointment at Ghanaian TV stations for broadcasting her movies without obtaining the necessary legal permission.
In a strongly-worded post on her Instagram page, Oboli condemned the unauthorized airing of her films and criticized the Ghana National Film Authority for its inaction in addressing the issue.
She questioned the authority's effectiveness in protecting intellectual property rights and threatened to pursue legal action against the offending TV stations.
Oboli noted the hard work, dedication, and resources that go into producing her films, stressing the importance of respecting her rights as a creator.

“I love my Ghanaian besties, colleagues, and friends, but you see those TV stations in Ghana, I’m coming for you! The guts to show my movies without licensing! If dem no arrest one of una, you won’t learn! Watch out! Coming for every one of you!
“You have no idea how much work goes into these projects. The sleepless nights I have! I’m coming for it all! You will pay for every one of my movies you have shown without permission! In 2025, you don’t understand that’s IP theft?!!!
“Maybe you don’t have a television authority in Ghana, but that is not my concern! Coming for you all! Clowns! Thanks to my Ghanaian besties for always sending me screenshots.”
This is not the first time a Nigerian creative has raised concerns about Ghanaian television stations showing their movies without licence.
In September 2023, popular Nollywood actress and filmmaker Ruth Kadiri has issued a stern warning to Ghanaian television stations airing her content without proper authorisation.
The renowned actress has similarly announced her intentions to pursue legal action against offenders.
