Naija,” and opened up local currency services for the platform in the country.
Crime thriller “Gangs of Lagos,” which will launch on the streaming service later this year, is a high-stakes action-crime thriller that follows a group of friends who each have to navigate their own destiny, growing up on the bustling streets and neighborhood of Isale Eko, Lagos. Meanwhile, “LOL: Last One Laughing Naija” is a local adaptation of the wide-traveling Amazon original. The unscripted series finds a group of comedians competing to be the “last one laughing.” The show is hosted by the comedian and entertainer Basketmouth, who will pit 10 famous Nigerian comedians against one another to see who will ultimately win by keeping a straight face.
Both local productions build on recent film deals, including an exclusive commissioning slate deal with Nemsia Films for three feature films, beginning with “Breath of Life,” launching next year. Other exclusive licensing agreements include deals with Nigerian production studios Inkblot Studios and Anthill Studios, where Prime Video gets their movies after theatrical release.
