Prior to the movie’s global release, ‘The Trade’ opened in cinemas earlier this year on January 13, 2023.

Despite great reviews and initially showing in 53 locations across the country, the crime drama had an underwhelming theatre run. The movie earned ₦15.50 million in three weeks.

She is known for Isoken (2017), Sugar Rush (2019), Brotherhood (2022) and Gangs of Lagos, the first Nigerian original film set to stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video. In September 2022, Osiberu’s Greoh Studios signed a three-year deal with Amazon to develop and produce original scripted TV series and feature films.

‘The Trade’ premieres on Prime Video on March 17, 2023.
