On Wednesday, July 10, 2024, the renowned actress, producer, and director Omoni Oboli made waves with a bombshell announcement about her latest cinematic venture, “The Uprising: Wives on Strike 3.”
This news comes at an already exciting time for Oboli, as her son is on the brink of fatherhood with his Oyinbo wife, adding a touch of personal joy to her professional triumphs.
Oboli revealed that the much-anticipated film will light up cinema screens later this year. She lavished praise on her stellar cast, with a special nod to the inclusion of the dynamic May Edochie.
The movie, a masterful blend of comedy and drama, has its roots in the original 2016 release, “Wives on Strike,” which captivated audiences with its bold narrative.
The runaway success of the first film propelled Oboli to create a sequel in 2018, “Wives on Strike: The Revolution,” which continued to charm viewers.
The storyline of the series is both provocative and empowering, centered around four determined women who take a daring stand against domestic violence by denying their husbands sex.
In a bold move that has everyone talking, Yul Edochie’s estranged wife, May Edochie, shared a riveting trailer from the upcoming film.
The trailer features her in a powerful scene, rallying women in Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa languages while rhythmically beating a drum.
Sharing the video on her page, May captioned it:
“Omoni Oboli called and I answered. This is one movie I am very excited about this year. I can’t wait for you all to see it. The Uprising Is Near!”
