Efa Iwara takes on the role of co-pilot alongside John Dumelo. In his Instagram post, Okpaleke revealed that the actors had to attend aviation school for three months.

As the name implies, the movie follows the story of the teenagers that hijacked a Nigerian airways plane headed to Abuja and diverted it to Niger in 1993 post the failed June 12 elections. Their audacious move was an attempt to force the government to hand over power to MKO Abiola.

Supported by the British Film Institute (BFI), the movie is a collaboration between Play Network Studios and Native media.
