»Alter Ego is a 2017 Nigerian drama film written by Jude Martins, directed by Moses Inwang and screenwriting by Esther Eyibio and produced by Sidomex Universal. (...)
Alter Ego tells a story of a successful lawyer who has dedicated a great part of her professional life to prosecuting sex offenders. She adopts any measure possible to see that sex offenders, especially those who molest children, are jailed. Ada Igwe (Omotola Jalade) does not only rely on the law to exert punitive measures on offenders as she also uses unorthodox methods to make sure those she finds guilty of child molestation and sex offences pay for their crimes. Her quest for justice is influenced by her personal childhood experience as she was raped by her teacher in school. However, her drive to punish sex offenders is impeded by her high libido. She engages her domestic as well as official workers in sex to quench her urge whenever she feels it, irrespective of the time and place.« (Extract from: Wikipedia)
