  'Blood Vessel' epitomizes a sad story familiar to Nigerian youths. By Uwakmfon Boniface. This holiday season will feature a release of an interesting title, Blood Vessel, by Chris Okpaleke. This new project mirrors more than just a survival scenario.  The movie focuses on six young Nigerians, played by Jide Kene Achufusi, Adaobi Lilian Dibor, David Ezekiel, Levi Chikere, Obinna Okenwa, Slyvester Ekanem, who are fleeing from the military due to a squall that made them victims. They eventually run away on a ship. However, numerous fights ensue which results in bloodshed and death. Dibor and Ezekiel were casted in the role of a couple who get caught in a commotion through no fault of theirs. During this trying period, they face the risk of separation. 'Blood Vessels' is produced by Fafa Bello Osagie, Roxanne Adekunle-Wright and Agozie Ugwu. Written by Musa Jeffrey David, the movie is the most recent by Play Network Studios after Okpaleke's partnership with Namibia
