Late Ola Rotimi’s popular play,“The Gods Are Not To Blame” which
reflects critically on the most cherished myth of cultural transmission
has been adapted for the big screen.
Respected Nollywood stars such as Bukky Ajayi, Norbert Young, Ireti
Doyle and Dele Odule recently teamed up with director, Funke Fayoyin to
adapt the play into a movie.
Titled ‘The gods Are Still Not To Blame’, the movie tells the story
of a queen mother (Carol King) who tries to save her new born baby from
being killed as suggested by the diviner. The baby was discovered to
have a bad destiny-to kill his father and marry his mother. Things
however go awry when 28 years after, fate brings the child in contact
with his destiny.
Produced by Byron Ene, the movie parades other actors such as Funsho
Adeolu, Yemi Eleuibon, Moji Olaiya, Bayo Alawiye, Omowumi Dada and Seun
