Sista MOVIE REVIEW: Kehinde Bankole Saves Movie’s Simplicity With Excellent Performance – Shola-Adido Oladotun Movie Title: Sista Release Date: 5 August 2022 Director: Biodun Stephen Runtime: 1 hour 34 minutes Cast: Kehinde Bankole, Deyemi Okanlawon, Bisola Aiyeola, Akintola Adeoluwa, Adediwura Adesegha, and Adedamola Adewale. Why do we watch movies? There are so many answers to this decade-old question. While entertainment suffices as a standard and good response, for some viewers, it’s a way through which they feel seen and are assured of the hope that no matter what challenges life throws in their way, things will get better. Through hopeful and compelling storytelling, Biodun Sephen’s Sista deviates from a typical Nollywood film. Although the storyline of Sista is not new on-screen as we have watched movies about a woman who gets pregnant at a young age, is forced to give up on her dreams, gets jilted by the baby’s father, raises the kids on her own, and later meets the absent father who already has a family, there is something about Sista that keeps a viewer interested in the sequence of events.

Subsidy Removal; The Business Of Smuggling The Country’s Petrol Is No Longer Viable – Reports A comparative analysis of the newly reviewed petrol prices in Nigeria after subsidy is removed with those of its West African neighbors shows the business of smuggling the country’s petrol is no longer viable as cost differentials are no longer attractive enough, BusinessDay reports. Data sourced from Global Petrol Prices, a website that tracks retail prices of refined petroleum products, show that prices across Africa are no longer as wide, which creates arbitrage incentivizing the smuggling of petrol from Nigerian borders. The price difference between the average price in Nigeria and Benin is less than N150 and about N200 per litre for some other West African neighbours, indicating that Nigeria’s subsidy removal will roil the market for illicit petrol across Africa. “People smuggle because they have historically gotten the commodity cheaper here in Nigeria and can make a reasonable margin selling to neighbouring countries even after all costs considered; once the subsidy is removed and there is a free market, the margins will not be such as to substantially encourage smuggling,” said Ayodele Oni, energy lawyer and partner at Bloomfield Law Practice.
