Love and New Notes is dropping in cinemas on February 13th, 2026 – and this one is about to shake your emotions, tickle your funny bone, and keep you glued to your seat!
Set against the dramatic backdrop of 1984 Nigeria, when the government dropped the ultimate plot twist: a sudden currency change that turned the entire nation upside down overnight! Families scrambling, lovers tested, hustlers scheming, and dreamers chasing new beginnings – this is chaos, opportunity, and raw human stories colliding in the most gripping way.
Timini Egbuson not only stars but also produces this powerful gem, bringing his signature charisma and depth. He’s joined by an incredible cast: the radiant Sophie Alakija, the legendary Odunlade Adekola, and the unstoppable Eniola Badmus, all under the brilliant direction of Kayode Kasum.
More than just a love story, Love and New Notes explores how one national decision quietly reshapes personal choices, tests relationships, and forces everyone to decide: adapt, risk it all, or change their lives forever. Expect laughter, tears, romance, and pure Nigerian resilience – all wrapped in vibrant 80s vibes!
Who’s marking their calendars already? This Valentine’s season just got a whole lot more exciting!
Directed by Uduak Patrick, None of This Is True is the kind of gripping Nigerian emotional rollercoaster that grabs you by the throat from the opening scene and refuses to let go until the credits roll. This 2026 release delivers a powerful exploration of love, lies, betrayal, and the heavy price of living a double life—classic Nollywood territory, but executed with such intensity that it feels refreshingly real and painfully relevant.
At the center of the storm is Gold (a standout performance by Emmanuella Iloba), a woman who thinks she's finally found her dream man in Daniel (Deyemi Okanlawon at his manipulative best). Charming, attentive, seemingly all-in—Daniel sweeps her off her feet. But the fairy tale shatters when Gold discovers the brutal truth: Daniel is very much married to Kemi (Bolaji Ogunmola in a fierce, unforgettable role), with children and a whole secret family life he's been juggling behind everyone's back. And Gold? She's pregnant. Heartbroken, betrayed, and carrying his child, she faces an impossible choice: stay silent to protect her own fragile future, or blow everything up and expose the web of deception.
The script dives deep into the messy realities of infidelity, manipulation, self-worth, and the devastating cost of truth. What makes this film so compelling is how it refuses to sugarcoat the pain. The emotional collisions feel authentic, the tears earned, and the tension palpable.
The cast absolutely shines. Deyemi Okanlawon seems almost typecast in these double-life roles (fans have noticed—he's perfected the art of playing the charming liar who crumbles under pressure), and he delivers a layered, charismatic-yet-toxic performance that makes you both root for and despise Daniel. Bolaji Ogunmola as Kemi is electric, especially in those explosive angry moments—her switch to Yoruba when the rage boils over had viewers cracking up through their tears. Emmanuella Iloba brings heartbreaking vulnerability to Gold, making her pain feel visceral. The supporting cast, including Grace Obi, Oluwafemi Mitchelle, and Oluwafemi Nathan, rounds out the story beautifully.

Fans are raving, and rightfully so. One viewer shared a deeply personal connection:
"As a woman whose ex-husband lied behind my back and fathered a child with another woman... this is real. Kudos to this film. The script is brilliant, the music is perfect."
Another praised Deyemi:
"They built this Deyemi for this role... he always lives a double life in his movies and executes perfectly ."
The applause is loud and well-deserved.
I was hooked from start to finish—the pacing, the music, the raw emotion all work together seamlessly. That said, the resolution felt a tad unrealistic to me. Gold's sudden wave of remorse didn't quite land with full conviction, especially given how much Daniel was financially supporting her. A bit more backstory on her inner conflict could have made that pivot feel more earned. Still, it's a minor quibble in an otherwise stellar production.
Rating: 9/10
If you're in the mood for a drama that will make you laugh, cry, gasp, and maybe even reflect on your own relationships, None of This Is True is a must-watch. Nollywood at its emotional best—Click play above and don't sleep on this one!
Bimbo Ademoye, has just come out on top in a tense copyright dispute that threatened to derail her massive YouTube hit, Where Love Lives. This story is a reminder of the real challenges filmmakers face in the digital age—and how standing your ground can pay off.
Released on Christmas Eve 2025 (December 24) on Bimbo Ademoye's YouTube channel, Where Love Lives quickly became a sensation. Starring heavyweights like Uzor Arukwe, Chioma Nwosu, and Osas Ighodaro, the film racked up an incredible 18 million views in a matter of weeks. That's the kind of success that turns heads in Nollywood and beyond!
But with great views comes great responsibility... and unfortunately, great risks from online piracy.
In mid-January 2026, Bimbo took to Instagram to sound the alarm. A track used in the film had been hit with a copyright claim by an individual named Emmanuel Davies (also referred to as Emmanuel Davis or Lagos Sound in some reports). The claim blocked monetization on the video, effectively halting Bimbo's earnings from her hard-earned success.
Bimbo was adamant: she had full legal rights to the song, having secured all necessary approvals from the original artist (Ugoccie, as previously reported). She accused the claimant of uploading the track elsewhere to falsely claim ownership—a classic case of digital piracy hitting too close to home.
Frustrated but fierce, she issued a public ultimatum and initially threatened legal action, making it clear she wouldn't settle out of court.
Fast-forward to late January 2026: the battle is over, and Bimbo has won! The copyright claim has been lifted, and Where Love Lives is back in the clear. She celebrated the resolution with a heartfelt post, declaring,
"God Doesn’t Play About Me."
Media outlets across Nigeria—from Vanguard to PM News and Premium Times—have covered the story, highlighting her relief and the broader implications for Nollywood creators fighting digital theft.
Bimbo Ademoye isn't just an actress—she's a powerhouse producer and filmmaker who's built an empire on YouTube. Films like Where Love Lives, Last Straw, and projects such as Miles Away from Home show her commitment to telling compelling stories directly to fans.
This victory isn't just personal; it's a win for independent creators everywhere. It underscores the importance of proper licensing—and the need for platforms like YouTube to handle claims swiftly and fairly.
Here's to Bimbo Ademoye—proof that talent, hard work, and a little divine intervention can overcome even the toughest obstacles. Keep shining, queen!
