Plot
editThe film started with an outspoken businesswoman and activist named Adam Shan who spearheaded a new protest movement that quickly gained support from the people across the country; painfully she is then brutally killed. When her son receives the shocking news, her son Captain Abdalla (Crackydon) resigned from the Nigerian Army to seek justice for the death of his mother.[6]
The film Blackout stirs up a lot of controversy around the poor condition of power supply in Africa and Nigeria. For many years, the majority of Nigerians who depend on NEPA "PHCN" for their daily electricity have experienced disruptions in their daily lives.
