She’s Nigeria’s on-screen darling, but is she a murderer? When her fiancé is found dead, celebrated actress Diiche must confront her dark side and the secrets of her past.

Diiche is a psychological thriller and the first Nigerian Original limited series from Showmax.

The title role of Odiiche ("Diiche" for short), an A-list actress, is played by Uzoamaka Onuoha. Diiche becomes a prime suspect in a high-profile murder investigation over the death of Nnamdi, her fiancé. She must take it upon herself and race against the clock to find out who killed her fiancé and exonerate herself.
