Throwback to This Intriguing Nollywood Movie by Tade Ogidan Titled “Diamond Ring” From the Late 90s

Tade Ogidan is the director of the 1998 Nollywood thriller Diamond Ring. Richard Mofe Damijo,  Teju Babyface, Sola  Sobowale, and  Bukky Ajayi are the main actors in it. Two portions were made of it. Back then, no little child could watch this movie by themselves. 

The conflict in Diamond Ring centers on the relationship between the cult members of Chidi and the spirit of Mrs. Gladys. Chidi, first-year student at the university and the sole child of Chief and Mrs. Ijeoma Dike,  steals diamond  ring from Mrs. Gladys’ body in an attempt to prove that he is fit for life in the covert cult. Chidi and his companions are also haunted by the soul of Mrs. Gladys. The cult members start to pass away one after the other.

Chidi suffers from an unusual illness for which conventional medicine has no cure. The return of the diamond  ring to Mrs. Gladys’s  body marks the conclusion of his quest for healing. One of the few expertly made and  produced Nollywood films at the period was  Diamond Ring.
