What happens

The Uprising: Wives on Strike 3 is a 2024 Nigerian film directed and co-produced by Omoni Oboli. It is a sequel to Wives on Strike: The Revolution and Wives on Strike. The film stars Omoni Oboli, Chioma Chukwuka, Uche Jombo, Ufuoma McDermott, and Hilda Dokubo. The Uprising: Wives on Strike 3 was released in Nigerian cinemas on October 18, 2024, and it became the highest ticket pre-sale for a Nollywood film, earning over ₦10 million through voucher sales within two days of release. Oboli, while reflecting on the journey to returning the Wives on Strike franchise, stated that this is the best of the franchise, and it will also act as a standalone, as viewers do not have to watch Wives on Strike and Wives on Strike: The Revolution to understand the third installment.
