The movie ANIKULAPO by Kunle Afolayan is set for release on the 30th of September. Here are the things you should expect from the highly anticipated movie.

Kunle Afolayan’s needs no introduction in Nollywood. Movies like The Figurine, October 1st, and so many have shown the immense talent of Kunle Afolayan; a man reeved in beauty of movie production, directing and acting.

Anyone who is conversant with Kunle Afolayan will know that he is a connoisseur and ambassador of celebrating African culture and values. ANIKULAPO is a movie set in the 17th century, Oyo Empire. Therefore one of the things you should expect from the movie is the constant usage of Yoruba idioms and proverbs. Actors like Kareem Adepoju (Baba Wande), Taiwo Hassan (Ogogo) and others will come through with the intelligent usage of the idioms and proverbs.

As the name depicts, ANIKULAPO means the one who have death in his porch, therefore we expect a lot of “juju” or better put a widely usage of magic. As an African man, Kunle Afolayan has never shy away from showing the powers of African gods in his movies and this is one of the areas that set him apart from other contemporary movie writers an directors.
