Description:

Storyline
Ebere(Sylvanus) and Judith(Solomon) are two cousins who live in the village with their respective parents,and are very close to each other,as in they do everything together and share everything together.
Ebere is the luckier of the two as she is being proposed to,by the wealthy businessman from enugu,Daniel(Umez).
He showers Ebere with gifts(wears mostly),which she promptly shares with Judith.
Naturally,Judith got envious,but just a harmless envy at that point.But when Judith shows her mother(Shobowale) the wears that her cousin has "dashed" her,and the mother does not see any reason why Daniel should not go for her own daughter,instead of Ebere,that envy quickly turns to jealousy that quickly becomes very poisonous.
Mother and daughter then hatched up a plan to rob the unsuspecting Ebere of her suitor.

Pros:
Cons:

This is another example of a movie with a predictable storyline('cos right after the first plotpoint,you always know in which direction the whole tory is going to go)but still manages to deliver a solid entertainment,due mainly to scintillating acting performances from the leading casts and very engaging dialogues.This is no mean feat because most naija movies we see these days, combine both predictability with zero entertainment.
The plot flows well and it kept mostly to it's theme.Very well paced too.
The first part was ended right,leaving the audience well in suspense and eager to see the pt2.Unfortunately,a visit to the juju man was too tempting to leave out of the plot.
Smoking performance from Shola Shobowale here!You can just see why she was casted in that particular role.
