The Nigerian entertainment scene is becoming increasingly vivid, particularly within the Nollywood industry where competition is rising, especially in the realm of epic movies.

Literature has long been regarded as a reflection of life, capturing the essence of societal happenings, norms, values, and traditions. This aspect has been effectively explored in movies, serving as a means to preserve our cultural heritage. Recently, there has been a surge in movies that deeply resonate with our origins, such as the releases of “Anikulapo,” “Jagun Jagun,” “House of Gaaa,” “Ajakaju,” and the latest addition, “Awùjalè – (THE BIOPIC).”

“Awùjalè” delves into the historical narrative of Ijebu Land, spanning over 700 years and focusing on the youngest and longest-serving first-class monarch in Nigeria, Awùjalè Sikiru Kayode Adetona Ogbagba II. The movie beautifully portrays his selfless dedication and fearless opposition against military and political powers, making it a compelling and intriguing addition to the cinematic landscape.

“Awùjalè” is scheduled for release this April. Buckle up, and get ready for an immersive experience that will leave a lasting impact.
