As Shina rushes her to the hospital, the city buzzes with the election battle between incumbent Azeez Bolajoko and popular challenger Ali Atande.Compassionate Dr Morenike admits her without an initial deposit, but her strict colleague, Dr Bakere, insists on payment or threatens to discharge her. Timini Egbuson and Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman play the lead roles, with their characters at the story’s core.

However, despite Egbuson’s reliable performance, the film often repeats his previous roles, needing more fresh nuances to make Shina genuinely memorable. This film starts with a captivating story that satirises many aspects of Nigerian society. While it entertains, teaches moral lessons, and includes suspense, it needs to leave a lasting mark. Despite its thrills and engaging elements, the movie misses the chance to achieve something more significant.

The supporting cast, including veterans like Akin Lewis and Segun Arinze, add depth to the movie but are often overshadowed by the chaotic plot.
