Issakaba, a well-known Nigerian movie, will make a series return.
Do you recall the well-known Nigerian film Issakaba? What do you remember about it? Fans of seasoned Nollywood actor Sam Dede will get to witness him perform once again when he returns to reprise his role as "Ebube" in the follow-up to the 2001 Nollywood masterpiece "Issakaba."
The reputable actor teased in a recent Instagram post, which Guardian Nigeria reported, saying, "Issakaba!!!" The Myth is back. A forest cannot have a river through it without experiencing tree downfall. Malevolent men lurk in the shadows. However, justice is mine.
Lancelot Imasuen, the original director, is returning to supervise the new endeavor.
Imasuen advertised the film's second round of tryouts earlier this month in Asaba, Delta, and showed signs of rapid production progress.
Inspired by the true narrative of the Bakassi Boys, a grassroots vigilante group established in 1998 to combat crime in Southeast Nigeria, "Issakaba" is an anagram of the word "Bakass."
In the movie, Ebube sets out with the Issakaba boys to combat armed robberies in their community, employing inventive strategies and ethereal charms to bring about speedy justice.
