[1] He is most notable for writing movies such as Last Flight to Abuja, Critical Assignment, October 1 and Citation,[2] as well as the Nigerian soap-opera Tinsel and UK series The Bill and In Exile.
After he returned to the United Kingdom, he joined with Channel 4 and wrote the play for sitcom series called In Exile.
Later in 2002, he made maiden cinema appearance as an actor with the horror film Deep Freeze.
The script was initially submitted with the title Dust,[6] mainly because the story is set in a very dusty town.
He expressed that he liked the story of 1 October because it is a period piece, which he had never done before and "it is also significant to the present state of Nigeria".
