Trust me, If you look for a more descriptive title for one of the latest Nigerian movies than the one above, then you will not find any. This story is about a husband and wife at war over the governorship seat. It is a perfect mix of drama, politics, and love. The couple is played by Omoni Oboli and Richard Mofe Damijo is one of the former’s best films to date.
The opening scene sets the tone for the rest of the movie. It starts with an aerial shot of a car driving through a winding bush path, while all that can be heard is the voice of a little girl singing an eerie Igbo folk song. When the car comes to a halt, the driver is revealed to be a man named Obinna Omego (played by Enyinna Nwigwe). He has driven his daughter to the middle of a forest with the promise of showing her a waterfall. He tells her to close her eyes in preparation for the surprise. When she does this, he beheads her. This sets up the move nicely for suspense and drama that will leave you reeling until the very end. Starring the legendary Ramsey Nouah, the film is also directed by him and produced by Steve Gukas, Dotun Olakunri, and Charles Okpaleke.
