Justin Ben played the role of Chika in The Night of June 7th, which will begin showing in cinemas nationwide on August 28.
"One of my favourite things as an actor is depicting real life," Justin Ben said, explaining why he accepted to play the role.
"It was challenging for me because this is actually the story of someone who had lived, not fictional."
He added that he also played the role "to be a voice" to the voiceless.
He went on to challenge Nigerians to share their positive and negative police stories so everyone can learn from them.
The Night of June 7th stars Femi Branch, Ali Nuhu, Gideon Okeke, Charles Lenny, and more.
It is written and produced by Linda Ikeji and directed by Toka Mcbaror.
