Just like the gift that keeps giving, Showmax’s Nigerian original crime thriller, Diiche is as generous as it gets.
The limited series is dishing everything that it should be and more. The series opens with the death of Nnamdi Nwokeji and till the 3rd episode, it has been a rollercoaster of jaw-dropping and eye- moments.
The list of suspects keeps changing with each episode. This minute, you are sure you have a strong suspect for Nnamdi’s killer, the next minute, you are almost striking the person off your list.
Here are our top five suspects so far:
Jimi: We’d classify Jimi as a very easy suspect. Here’s why; firstly, He was Nnamdi’s best friend and business partner and we are getting to find out that he did not agree with some of the shady business deals Nnamdi was making with G Money. Secondly, he was in love with Nnamdi’s fiance, Diiche. There is no coming back from this and it is enough to fly Jimi to the front of the suspect list. To make matters worse, he tried running away from the Police. Nobody runs when they are innocent and Jimi did not look innocent.
Diiche: A lover is usually one to look out for when drafting the suspect list. Diiche waking up the morning after the party and looking like she does not remember much from that night puts some thoughts in our minds. Also, what happened to her car? It looks like it was scratched by a wolf. Some might ask how a scratched car relates to a man found dead in a room. Well, you just never know these things. Lastly, a mother’s instinct is usually always right and Nnamdi’s mother is so convinced she killed her son. We can’t just ignore that.
Nnamdi’s Mother: You all might be wondering what Nnamdi’s mother is doing on this list. Well, you can’t completely rule it out. There needs to be some sort of explanation for the powder she was blowing in Nnamdi’s office and even his ‘protection’ beads cannot be unlooked. Looking at her ways, it might just be unintentional killing, but it still does not take her off the list.
Inspector Ijeoma: We know how this looks, but how do you explain her sudden transfer from Abuja to work on this case? Inspector Kazeem asked her why she was transferred and she evaded the question and refused to answer. Yeah, she might be investigating to find the killer, but what if that’s a ploy to distract us from finding the actual killer? Just to add that she’s always too serious too. Might just be a cover-up.
The Hoodie Man: The list of suspects will not be complete without The Hoodie Man. From knocking down Inspector Ijeoma at the beach to trying to break into Diiche’s car. This unknown person has given us a reason to think he or she might just be the killer.
As earlier mentioned, the list is subject to change as more suspects are springing up. We are getting closer to finding out who the killer is and finally getting an answer to the question, “Who Killed Nnamdi”.
