5 best mobile apps for Nigerian movie addicts




Thanks to Nollywood, many Nigerians have developed a taste for locally produced movies and shows, so much that many are now addicted to Africa Magic - the No. 1 go-to cable TV channel for these indigenous movies.

Fortunately, Nollywood addicts no longer have to subscribe to DSTV and other cable networks to get assuage their longing as the Nigerian app market now brings these movies straight to their phones.

Aside from giving subscribers and users a chance to watch Nigerian movies for free, some of them personalize the user’s experience by giving subscribers options to create their own playlists and manage their personal library, thereby improving the entire movie experience.
With a growing collection of these movie apps available at the Blackberry, iTunes and Android stores, it can be difficult to decide on the best one to download.
