There is always something new to discover on Nollywood YouTube, and this week’s selection brings together films offering different flavours of Nigerian storytelling.
From comedy and drama to romance and entertaining stories, this week’s Nollywood CV movie picks feature familiar faces and filmmakers delivering new stories for audiences to enjoy online.
Damilola Oni, Bolaji Ogunmola, Omoni Oboli and other Nollywood talents take the spotlight in this week’s selection, with Doyin Asekun’s LIMITS also making the cut.
Here are Nollywood CV’s movie picks of the week.
1. SISI MECHO 2
Damilola Oni is one of the names that caught our attention this week with SISI MECHO 2.
The film continues the Sisi Mecho story with another dose of the character-driven entertainment that made the first instalment stand out.
With a cast that includes Mercy Aigbe, Odunlade Adekola, Eniola Ajao and Damilola Oni, SISI MECHO 2 brings together some recognisable Nollywood faces for a film that is well suited for viewers looking for something entertaining to watch on YouTube.
If you enjoy Nollywood films with comedy, drama and plenty of personality, this is one to add to your list.

2. MOFE
MOFE is another film that earns a spot on this week’s list.
Featuring Babatunde Aderinoye, Damilola Oni, Irewole Olaniyan and Efiwe, the movie brings together a cast that gives the story its own identity.
There is enough going on here to make MOFE an interesting addition to your weekend watchlist, particularly if you are looking for a Nollywood film that you can settle into without overthinking what to watch next.

3. LOVE AFTER THE DAMAGE
We cannot stop loving Bolaji Ogunmola in LOVE AFTER THE DAMAGE. The actress brings the kind of screen presence that makes it easy to stay invested in a character, and this film gives her another opportunity to show what she can do.
Also featuring Deyemi Okanlawon and Anthony Woode, LOVE AFTER THE DAMAGE explores the complications that can come with love, relationships and the consequences of what happens when things do not go according to plan.
If relationship-driven Nollywood stories are your thing, this is one of the films on this week’s list that deserves your attention.

Omoni Oboli served it right again in KISS ME TOMORROW.
The filmmaker and actress has continued to establish herself as one of the familiar names in Nigerian film, both in front of and behind the camera, and this latest offering gives audiences another opportunity to see her work.
KISS ME TOMORROW makes our selection for viewers who enjoy stories built around relationships, emotions and the complications that can come with them.
It is another title worth adding to your Nollywood YouTube watchlist this week.

Yes, this one is from me, but that does not mean it cannot make the list. If you missed the film when it was released, this is a good opportunity to finally see what WIFE MATERIAL is about.
Featuring Biola Adebayo, Babatunde Aderinoye, Debbie Shokoya and Seilat Ad, the film brings together a cast for a story designed to entertain and keep viewers engaged.
So, consider this the bonus recommendation for anyone who has not already watched it.
