Netflix is constantly adding to its library of Nigerian films. The newest addition is Kemi Adetiba’s “King of Boys”.

               
           
               
                   

Released back in 2018, the gangster epic movie focused on power tussle that tells the story of a businesswoman and philanthropist named Alhaja Eniola Salami (played by Nollywood veteran Sola Sobowale) with growing political ambitions.

               
           
               
                   

Despite coming out in October, Adetiba’s sophomore film received a lot of great nominations and grossed a total of N245 million making it is the fourth highest-earning Nigerian movie of all time.
