Charles Okpaleke of Play Network Studios shared the exciting news online along with some behind-the-scenes (BTS) photos from the set.
Making the announcement, he wrote, “Remember the story of the teenagers that hijacked a Nigerian airways plane headed to Abuja and diverted it to Niger in 1993? The 4 boys (who are in their 50’s now) went to prison for over a decade. I was privileged to interview 3 of them 2 years ago and they gave me a detailed explanation on how they carried out the first ever plane hijack in Nigeria. Their story is now being adapted into a feature film for the world to see by Play Network Studios and Native media…”
