It also launched the careers of Kenneth Okonkwo (who played the main character Andy Okeke), Bob Manuel and Kanayo Kanayo.
Directed by Chris Obi Rapu and written by Okechukwu Ogunjiofor and Kenneth Nnabue, the movie told the story of Okeke, a man who wants more.
His discontentment with his current financial status and desire for wealth led him to a cult that demanded a ritual — sacrifice a loved one for riches.
Desperate for money, he kills his wife. Viewers watch on as the ghost of his wife begins to haunt him until he gives his life to Christ.
At the time, this beloved movie could only be watched via the Video Home System (VHS). It is currently available online.
It was uploaded by Playnetwork Africa and Natives Filmwork on Youtube.
