The Trade

Let's talk about "The Trade" a recent Nigerian movie you probably didn't notice.

But before then, let's talk about the brain that has recently given us great movies that made Nigerians proud, Jadesola Osiberu!

Just 37 years old, this lady has overwhelmed the Nigerian film industry with amazing stories and also signing a three-year contract with Amazon Prime Video, notable among her works are; Sugar Rush, Isoken, Ayinla, Brotherhood, Gangs of Lagos and The Trade.

The movie, The Trade tells a Nigerian story of a kidnapper and kingpin, how he runs his operations. It tells a story of greed, over abitiousness and betrayer.

I can now say Jadesola Osiberu has own my heart with her storytelling.

The Trade is Nigerian movie you should see.

I love it when characters break out of their regular roles, roles we know them with and always see them paly to play a role which maybe totally different from what they're known with. The trade did this for some of the actors except for Stan Eze, who before this project was already a versatile actor.

The actors did great by becoming one with their character (most).

But all said and done, this was a regular crime story with no uniqueness.
