Hour of Grace has made me weep. In this movie, after 10 years of marriage, an old couple can’t have a child, so Azuka persuades her husband, Chief Amadi, to marry Helen, her best friend so that she can have a child. That was the start of her woes. I’m not sure whether this film was based on an actual occurrence or completely fictional, but it made me shed tears as if it were real. Hilda Dokubo (as Azuka), Justice Esiri (as Chief Amado), Liz Benson (as Helen), my personal favorite, starred in the movie, among others.
In the year 2000, Issakaba was released. This tells the story of a group of vigilantes, Bakassi Boys, who fight crimes such as murder, armed robbery, banditry, etc. The fight against Eddy Nawgu, a sorcerer who terrorized the people of the Nawgu group in the state of Anambra, is also portrayed.
