Linda, who posted on her popular blog few days ago, described it as an amazing and the first Nigerian movie she has ever had to pay to watch at the cinema.

“93 Days is the only Nigerian movie I have ever paid to go watch in Nigerian cinema and what a movie; amazing cinematography, storytelling and acting.

“It is based on the story of the people who saved lives of many Nigerians by containing Ebola that came to their hospital- First Consultant Medical Hospital, and the hero, the late Dr. Ameyo Adadevoh, who made sure the Ebola carrier, American-Liberian Patrick Sawyer, didn’t leave the hospital and spread the disease. “Amazing movie,” she concluded.

Her comment is coming after several moviegoers and celebrities had rated the movie high. Chioma, a Nollywood actress, said 93 Days has continued to “wow the audience.”

Screened in the United States, at the House on the Rock Cathedral in Lagos and at the just held Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in Canada, the movie is a compelling human story of dedication, sacrifice, resilience and survival.

The movie, which is directed by Steve Gukas and produced by Bolanle Austen-Peters, Dotun Olakurin and Steve Gukas, has been in cinemas across Nigeria since September 16, this year.

The movie demonstrates the bravery of the late Adadevoh and her colleagues from their encounter with the late Sawyer, who was the index case of the Ebola Virus Disease, to ensuring that the right medical procedures were in place to stop the spread of the disease in the country.

It stars notable actors, like Keppy Ekpeyong Bassey, Bimbo Akintola, Gideon Okeke, Somkele Iyamah-Idhalama, Bimbo Manuel and veteran Hollywood actor, Danny Glover.

Since its cinematic debut, the movie has been attracting huge audience across cinemas and was reported to have had impressive first week opening.
