He stated that the move was intended to promote local content and abilities while also enhancing economic growth.

Fadolapo had read: “In line with the federal government’s policy of harnessing local talent, including economic growth and the need to take necessary steps and actions aimed at growing the Nigerian advertising industry, the Advertising Regulatory Council of Nigeria -ARCON, being the apex advertising, advertisement and marketing communications’ regulatory agency of the federal government, has following its statutory mandates, responsibilities, and powers as seen by the Advertising Regulatory Council of Nigeria Act No. 23 of 2022, prohibits the use of foreign models and voice-over artists on any advertisement targeted or exposed on the Nigerian advertising space with effect as from 1st October 2022.”

“All advertisements, advertising, and marketing communications materials should use only Nigerian models and voice-over artists.
