The Nigerian film industry, commonly known as Nollywood, has entered the biggest international streaming agreements in its history, with three major global platforms committing a combined $800 million over five years for exclusive and non-exclusive content partnerships.

The deals are expected to fund hundreds of new productions, expand existing catalogues, and create thousands of direct and indirect jobs in Nigeria's creative economy.
