Her Excellency is a gripping 2025 Nollywood political drama that explores ambition, power, and the sacrifices made on the climb to the top. Centered on the intoxicating journey to authority, the film delves into how unbridled pride and absolute power can corrupt—even a well-intentioned leader.
The story follows a rising female protagonist who achieves an unexpected seat of power (“Her Excellency”). As she navigates high-stakes political maneuvering, she contends with betrayal, moral compromises, and the harsh realities behind public prestige. Along the way, relationships are tested, alliances shift, and the question becomes: at what cost does one maintain influence?
Featuring an ensemble cast including Adebayo ‘Oga Bello’ Salami, Odunlade Adekola, Sola Sobowale, Bimbo Ademoye, Femi Adebayo, Jide Kosoko, Yemi Solade, Aisha Lawal, Muyiwa Ademola, and Adeniyi Johnson, the film weaves together multiple perspectives on gender, leadership, and the hidden tensions of power.
Set to premiere in Nigerian cinemas on July 4, 2025, Her Excellency was produced by veteran actor Oga Bello as a bold return to themes from his earlier film Agbara Obinrin, aiming to spotlight women’s influence in both private and public spheres.
