The Ghost and the Tout still shows in most locations even as showtimes for Who?, Divorce?… Not Allowed, and Date Night keep thinning out. Three new comedies, Crazy People, Johnny Just Come, and Charles Uwagbai’s Kondo Games, would be out in cinemas this week. Two of these movies star Funnybone Chibunna, a hilarious addition we’d truly love to see. Come next month and Lara and the Beat (produced by Biola Alabi) will be upon us. While we anticipate this and a few others, here are 9 Nigerian films you should check out this week:
