Her Excellency – Official Trailer Review

Adebayo Salami, also known as Oga Bello, marks his 60 years in the film industry with this remarkable talent-filled movie. “Her Excellency” is a movie with a strong story about power, politics, and leadership in a male-led system. Set to be released on the 4th of July.

The trailer shows a strong female political figure trying to handle the high-stakes world of government, corruption, and loyalty, while facing personal and spiritual struggles. It’s a political drama that highlights ambition, sacrifice, and what it truly takes to be a female leader — with cultural depth and emotional weight. She is handling power, betrayal, and responsibility in a world that doesn’t give her any favors.

With a powerhouse cast that includes Adebayo Salami, Femi Adebayo, Sola Sobowale, and Bimbo Ademoye, this political drama isn’t just about a story — it’s serving real tension, emotions, and many behind-the-scenes stories of leaders.

The Visuals
From richly styled government offices to perfectly tailored traditional fits and intense close-ups, everything feels polished. You can tell they were very intentional about getting every shot right. The Yoruba language adds even more authenticity, and the color tones give it that polished, big-screen feel. No shaky storyline here — just clean transitions, smooth acting and bold expressions that leaves you curious and completely on the edge.

Here’s What Makes It Stand Out:
• It changed the normal societal norms, by placing a woman in the political lead.

.   Intimate, emotional scenes hinting at family dynamics, dramas and sacrifices behind that public facade.

• And yes, there’s a slight spiritual edge — nothing heavy, just soft reminders about conscience and doing what’s right.

Review
Honestly, watching the trailer left many audiences genuinely curious. The mix of politics, tradition, and family drama  feels like it’s building toward something big. It reminds me of movies like October 1 — the way culture, power, and identity blend together to tell a deeper story but the twist is  the fact that they chose to center a woman in power, that alone changes everything and it makes the movie unique.

Final Thoughts
Her Excellency feels like more than just another Nollywood political drama — it hits deeper. The trailer gives a glimpse into a powerful, emotional, and culturally rooted story that could spark important conversations. With big names, striking visuals, and that bold female lead energy, it’s definitely one to watch out for. If the full movie carries the same weight as the trailer.
