Nollywood is a very large and lucrative industry, therefore we at waffcityhot compiled a list of the highest grossing movies in Nigeria history. Rank Title Year Domestic Gross (₦) Studio(s) Director(s) 1 The Wedding Party 2 (2017) N500,000,000 [1] Ebonylife Films / FilmOne / Inkblot Production / Koga Studios Niyi Akinmolayan: The movie focuses on Dozie's ( Banky Wellington) elder brother, Nonso ( Enyinna Nwigwe ), who has continued his romance with Deardre (Daniella Down), Dunni's ( Adesua Etomi ) bridesmaid. Nonso takes Deardre on a date in Dubai and proposes marriage by accident. After a disastrous traditional engagement ceremony in Lagos, Nonso's family and Deardre's aristocratic British family reluctantly agree to a wedding in Dubai. 2. The Wedding Party (2016) N453,050,000 [2] Ebonylife Films / FilmOne / Inkblot Production / Koga Studios Kemi Adetiba: The Wedding Party follows the shenanigans that go on during the planning of a high class wedding in Nigeria. Dunni, a 24 year old art gallery owner and only daughter of her parents, Engineer Bamidele and Mrs Tinuade Coker, is about to marry the love of her life, IT entrepreneur Dozie, the handsome son of Chief Felix and Lady Obianuju Onwuka. The couple took a vow of chastity and are looking forward to a ground -breaking first night together as a married couple. Between matchmaking attempts on the bridal train, a wedding planner on a mission to succeed, the unruly behaviour of some ‘village’ guests much to Tinuade’s horror, Dunni's uncertainty about her new husband's faithfulness during the time of their courtship, amidst colourful aso-ebi, eclectic music, small chops, and souvenir drama, we begin to wonder whether Dunni and Dozie will get through their wedding reception unscathed. 3 A Trip to Jamaica (2016) N178,500,000 [3] Corporate World Pictures Robert Peters: A Trip to Jamaica is a Nigerian comedy drama film directed by Robert Peters starring Ayo Makun , Funke Akindele, Nse Ikpe Etim and Dan Davies.

Elizabeth is a celebrated obstetrician whose penchant for younger men has estranged her from her daughter.
