A Lagos State High Court has ruled in favour of the Isale-Eko Descendants Union in its case against Amazon Web Services and the creators of the controversial movie, Gangs of Lagos, mandating a public apology for misrepresenting the Eyo Festival and Isale-Eko community.
Following the film’s release on Amazon Prime Video, members of the Isale-Eko community expressed outrage, arguing that the movie distorted their cultural heritage and portrayed their people in a negative light.
