Ace Nigerian actor Segun Arinze says film is a tool for change in governance.

The actor who was in Ghana for the African Movie Academy Awards press soire held on Sunday at the IBIS Style Hotel says he believes that film is able to unite Africa.

He added that film always unites, ignites passion, it becomes the voice for the masses, the downtrodden. They use it as a platform to say we can relate to what we saw in this film.

Film is a veritable thing for a change in governance, he said in an interview with Joy Entertainment.

Asked whether that change has been seen in Africa, he noted that change is a gradual process that is not expected to happen immediately.  

He therefore encouraged filmmakers to be consistent with knocking on the doors of government, adding that they will eventually give a listening ear.

It is a gradual process, it is just that sometimes the leaders also play deaf and dumb and pretend that they are not seeing but they see.
