Blogger Linda Ikeji has vowed to conquer the Nigerian movie industry, after conquering blogging. She said this while introducing her latest movie, titled ‘Dark October.
Blogger Linda Ikeji known for her sensational blog headlines and Africa’s billionaire blogger who keeps on inspiring young Nigerians and Africans around the world, taking to her official social media handle on Sunday 17th October 2021, posted a snippet from her latest movie, ‘Dark October’ she said the world is not ready for.
She posted the snippet saying:
“Conquered blogging. About to conquer the Nigerian movie industry. You guys are not even ready for this movie! #DarkOctober! Coming soon!,” she said.
The 41-year-old, blogger and mother of one, is no stranger to the Nigerian movie industry and entertainment in general. But this time, judging from the snippet she shared on Sunday, where a man is shown with a visibly brutalised body, and running away from those trying to kill him, she is ready to rival the likes of Mo Abudu, Kemi Adetiba and Afolayan in the fast-growing movie business in Nigeria.
Blogger Linda Ikeji And ‘Dark October’ The Movie?
Although she did not say what the movie is all about, judging from her caption, and the little we have seen so far from the snippet, it is safe to say that the movie could be about the ‘Aluu Four lynching’.
The ‘Aluu Four Lynching and murder’ was the unfortunate incident that happened on October 5th 2012 which saw the lynching to death of four young men, namely, Ugonna Obuzor, Toku Lloyd, Chiadika Biringa, and Tekena Elkanah, all students of the University of Port Harcourt.
The snippet she shared has since been applauded by her followers on her social media handle.
