Living in Bondage: Breaking Free’s star, Jide Kene Achufusi and beautiful Nollywood actress of Papa’s Gone Mad fame, Victoria Nwogu pulled off amazing performances as lovers who overcame a most disturbing and traumatised experience in a new film set for release in coming days titled “Ije Awele”.

Victoria Nwogu had lived a traumatised and violated life since she was a mere kid. She was molested by her father (Keppy Ekpeyong Bassey) from the age of 6. And more traumatizing for her was the fact that her mother knew and did nothing. Instead of protecting her she was loading her with contraceptives to prevent her from getting pregnant, all in the bid to preserve the family’s name.

This leaves the young girl feeling mostly betrayed and begins searching for answers, because “how can a mother do this to her own child? Along the way she finds love and finds more secrets. In the end she finds fulfilment and succour in the hands of her lover (Jide Kene)

 

‘Ije Awele’, is a feature film produced with a mission to mark a turning point for the Nigerian film industry and it is currently being presented to Netflix and Amazon

 

 

The star-studded, thought-provoking project was produced by Victoria Nwogu and directed by Emeka Ojukwu to highlight the story of very many girls in the world facing abuse from their loved ones.

 

 

It tells the story of a young girl’s journey to self-discovery.

 

 

Most remarkable is the inspiring blend of veterans such as Onyeka Owenu, Keppy Ekpeyong Bassey, Ejike Asiegbu, Ngozi Nwosu, and younger stars such as Victoria Nwogu and Jidekene Achufusi (Swanky JKA), which did an amazing job in helping to emphasize the need to tackle the persistent abuse of the girl child.

 

 

According to the Executive Producer, Emeka Nwokocha “Ije Awele” was inspired by the disturbing rise in the abuse of the girl child, especially by people who should protect them.

 

 

He said, “I recently met a girl who confessed to me that she and her sister were deflowered by their father. She thought it was a normal thing until she mentioned it to some of her friends.

 

 

“Later, I got to know there were other cases like hers. The rise in such cases inspired the movie and the need to bring to the world what really happens and to encourage victims to speak out.”
