A new movie that will celebrate Nigerian
soldiers, some of whom have been battling the Boko Haram insurgents in the
northern part of Nigeria; ‘A Soldier Story,’ has just been premiered by V+O Communications

AMVCA award winning actress Linda Ejiofor and a
renowned voice-over broadcaster; Tope Tedela
Nollywood actors and actresses featured in the epic movie.
‘A Soldier’s Story’ is a love story of a
military man, which also highlighted military call of duty, life & death
and the risk everything, with their passion to protect their nation.
The movie celebrates the Nigerian heroic
soldiers to encourage and appreciates their contribution to the country.
It also featured young and brilliant actors
like of Daniel K Daniel, Adesua Etomi, Zinab Olumide, Owuru Balogun, Sambasa
Nzeribe, and Chico Aligwekwe among others.
The producer, Martin Gbados, inconjunction with
Frankie Ogar Films production, presents the film, many in the industry tagged-
A movie to die for.
Information also has it that V+O communication
a trusted full-fledged business strategy partners to private and publicly
traded corporations, governments, institutions, philanthropic organisations and
the individuals that lead them are the also an agency of preference for big,
influential, local and regional champions aiming for market leadership, and
market entry; just like A Soldier’s Story.
According to the industry watchers, who were
privileged to be at the premiere, they squealed that “A Soldier’s Story” is a
must watch movie and it is worth a traffic drive to cinemas.
The movie is about Regina, a young female
scavenger, who discovered that a man left for dead amongst many corpses
littering the street after an ambush on some peace keeping corps members by
rebel soldiers was still alive. She is compelled to take him home.
She has no clue, who he is as he had been
stripped to his briefs with no form of identification.
The young woman caters for him and nurses his
injuries for months with the only sign of life being the rise and fall of his
chest that was showing signs of life.
The young man wakes up later from coma with no
recollection of who he is or where he is from. The attack has caused him
amnesia.
Undaunted by his condition and the consequences
of taking a total stranger home during the war times, Regina finds ways to
cater for and nurse him back to good health, while keeping him hidden
particularly from a group of bandits that come around regularly to intimidate
her and her little brother.
He soon begins to develop feelings for her and
she in turn fell for him as they are always together and hardly in contact with
other people apart from her younger brother.
He begins to regain his memory through a slow
process and eventually, he is able to have a total recall and Regina, the lady
who took him home and nursed him back to health, is heartbroken to find out
that he has another life back home in Nigeria.
‘A Soldier Story’ would certainly be a box
office, when it is eventually released into the Nigerian cinemas in the next
few weeks.
