Issakaba, which is an anagram for Bakassi, is based on a community vigilante gang called Bakassi Boys that purport to fight against crimes like armed robbery and murder cases that put fear and panic in the community.
The Issakaba Boys, led by Ebube (played by Dede), had to fight against armed robbers who terrorise their community. The armed robbers were backed by mystical powers (charm) and because of this, Ebube and his team of Issakaba Boys also acquire powers that enabled them to fight them.
The acclaimed Nigerian action franchise, Issakaba makes a comeback 23 years after the first instalment. The upcoming project is a sequel and not a remake.
