5. Knocking On Heaven’s Gate
This romantic love story by Emem Isong is responsible for the screen breakthrough of Nollywood actress Adesua Etomi, as both her acting and singing skills were well explored.
Also featuring, Majid Micheal, Ini Edo and Blossom Chukwujekwu, the movie tells the story of a couple, made of a choir director and choir singer, whose marriage seemed perfect to the world, but was being eaten deep by domestic violence.
Eventually, the woman falls into the hands of a music producer who plans to steal her heart away from her husband, deliver her from the abuse as well as change her genre of music.
6. Wedding Party
This movie came with so much hype which was worth it at the end of the day. The star-studded movie remains one of the best-produced movies of 2016 and the most watched movie in Nigerian box office as at December 2016.
Starring Adesua Etomi as the Yoruba bride of the century and Banky W [his first movie] as the Igbo groom whose parents [especially mothers] did not fully accept the choices of the tribe they chose to marry from.
With a side distraction by a wedding thief who invaded the party and a single mistake by the best man [Ikechukwu], the groom had to fight to keep his lady, who also faced some drama from the ex of her husband to be.
Wedding Party is a must watch as it captures all the drama in a typical modern-day Nigerian wedding – it still showed at Cinemas as at March 2017.
