The Party (2025) – Full Series Details

The 3-part Nigerian mystery drama The Party premiered on Netflix Nigeria on May 30, 2025, turning a night of celebration into a web of suspicion, betrayal, and hidden danger.

Directed by Yemi Morafa and written by Stephen Okonkwo, The Party opens with the shocking death of a young man at a luxurious event. What begins as a night of glitz and glamour quickly devolves into a locked-down investigation. As detectives begin to dig into the lives of the guests, the truth unravels through sharp dialogue, emotional breakdowns, and unexpected twists.

This tightly-wound drama brings together an impressive ensemble cast, headlined by Kehinde Bankole, Kunle Remi, Shaffy Bello, Uzor Arukwe, and Bimbo Manuel, all known for their commanding screen presence. Kehinde Bankole delivers a particularly memorable performance as a conflicted guest caught between personal loyalty and public exposure. Kunle Remi, fresh off a streak of genre-spanning roles, holds his own in a part that’s equal parts charming and unnerving. Shaffy Bello, as always, exudes elegance with an edge, while Uzor Arukwe and Bimbo Manuel bring weight to the story’s most morally tense moments.

The series is produced by Judith Audu, Shileola Ibironke, and Ope Ajayi, three names driving a growing wave of elevated genre storytelling in Nollywood. Audu, known for her sharp production instincts and nuanced character choices, brings emotional depth to another whodunnit. Produced by Captain of the Sea Productions and distributed by Cinemax Distribution Limited, The Party uses its three-episode structure to build slow-burning tension without overstaying its welcome.

The Party is a sharply crafted murder mystery that unfolds at a high-society Lagos gathering where a young man’s sudden death unravels hidden truths. With standout performances from Bimbo Manuel, Shaffy Bello, and Madam Bankole, the series delivers suspense, style, and a deeply Nigerian authenticity. Language flows naturally, cinematography stuns, and the story keeps you guessing until the very end. Imperfect but unforgettable, this is one of Nollywood’s strongest thrillers in recent years.
