1. Billionaires Club
You know things are about to get deep when you hear titles like Billionaires Club. It’s chopping and spending the money time with the real OGs like Pete Edochie, Patience Ozokwor, Sola Sobowale, Tony Umez, Afam Okereke, and other stars.
The movie involves a secret society of men who use occultic powers to manipulate people and make blood money.
Vintage Nollywood at its finest!

2. End of Billionaires Club
Old Nollywood was very notorious for titles and soundtracks that gave away the plotlines, but we still watched them anyway.
As one can tell from the title of this movie, it’s the end of the road for our famous billionaires. The secret society of these men (played by Pete Edochie, Tony Umez, Afam Okereke, and others) use occult powers to manipulate people and make money.
Their secrets get exposed and they meet their doom when the spirit of one of their victims comes haunting them for vengeance.
All in a day’s work!
