4th Republic (2019)

After a shooting in one Nigerian district leaves a number of election officials dead, the voting results in that district are nullified. A popular candidate who has thus lost the election declares herself the legitimate winner and sues her opponent. My interest in Nollywood films grew with how tight this violent political thriller is. The stench of political corruption blanketed the entire election and until the last moments, it’s impossible to know who is telling the truth and who is in the right, if anyone is.
