1.1 Background of the Study
Child labor remains a pressing issue in many parts of Nigeria, including Toto Local Government Area, Nasarawa State. Films, as influential forms of media, have been used to highlight societal issues, including the plight of children subjected to exploitative labor (Okonkwo & Musa, 2023). By dramatizing real-life scenarios, films can draw attention to the causes, consequences, and potential solutions to child labor. This study investigates the effectiveness of films in raising awareness and promoting action against child labor in Toto.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
Despite national and international efforts to combat child labor, it remains prevalent in Toto, where poverty and limited access to education drive many children into exploitative work. Films have the potential to complement these efforts by sensitizing audiences and inspiring change, but their impact in this regard has not been adequately studied (Abdullahi & Bello, 2024). This research examines how effectively films highlight child labor issues and influence perceptions in Toto.
