“Ada Omo Daddy” is another movie talked about in the cinemas.
Although, This is a late review, our editors couldn’t help but share their opinion.
The festive season might be over, but we believe you should still see this drama.
Why, you may ask.
Well, Let’s dive right into it!
Omo Daddy is a short family drama co-produced by Mercy Aigbe and Kazim Z Adeoti. Directed by Akay Mason and Adebayo Tijani. This story centers around a unique family, preaching love, forgiveness, resentment, and forbearance regardless of ethnicity. Irete, played by Sola Sobowale, is put under confusion and regrets from her past, when her lost ex-husband shows up in her new family. This drama began when her daughter Perosola, played by Omowunmi Dada, announced her wedding to Ifeanyi.
Furthermore, it becomes more spicy because all along, Perosola thought her biological father was Irete’s second husband. And with this recent news, she is filled with several emotions at the wrong time. Or the right time? (What better time to know all the hidden past about your family, than when you are about to enter a new family)
Ada, Fueled by resentment for her mother’s lies to her, confusion on her biological father’s adamant decision to walk her down the aisle, and every mixed emotion that comes with her wedding preparation. Even more, shocked at the love her step father had shown her despite knowing he wasn’t her biological father. The drama gets really steamy.
This story is really as steamy as it sounds, and We appreciate the picture of ethnic unity, and parental love in spite of differences that this drama shows.
This movie features seasoned cast like Chiwetalu Agu, Dele Odule, Fred Amata, Mercy Aigbe, Miriam, Morenikeji Gloria, Nkechi Blessing, Omowunmi Dada, Sola Sobowale, Taiwo Adeyemi, Tayo Faniran, Tomi Ojo, Unusual Phyna, Wunmitoriola, Adeniyi Johnson, Carol King, and Charles Okafor.
