Media entrepreneur and host of the viral talk show #WithChude, Chude Jideonwo, has unveiled the official trailer for ‘Madam President’, the highly anticipated three-part political drama that marks his first venture into scripted storytelling as an executive producer.
Set to premiere on @ChudeFilms on YouTube, the series is inspired by true-life events and explores the cost of leadership, the weight of power and the courage it takes to challenge systems. Sharing the trailer, Jideonwo wrote simply: “Power has a price. The official trailer for MADAM PRESIDENT is here.”
After years of deliberately focusing on documentaries and unscripted conversations, Jideonwo described Madam President as a story too important to ignore. “After years of saying no to scripted content, I finally executive produced a series focused on a story that is dear to my heart,” he shared.
“You’ll recognise the story. It’s inspired by true-life events.” Executive produced by Chude Jideonwo and Jennifer Mairo, the series is directed by Mercy ‘Big Star’ Osazuwa and features an accomplished cast including Peggy Ovire, Teniola Aladese, Ayo Adesanya, Jide Kosoko, Patrick Doyle, Grace Angalabiri, Dr Faith Adewale (BBN), and other celebrated actors bringing this gripping political story to life.
Produced by Joy, Inc. and YNaija Studios, and powered by Africa No Filter and CcHUB Creative Economy, Madam President is more than a political drama, it is a timely reflection on power, accountability, justice and the human cost of leadership. With its official trailer now released, audiences are invited into a story that is both familiar and deeply unsettling, one that asks difficult questions about politics, courage and the choices that define nations. The complete three-part series will premiere on @ChudeFilms on YouTube on 21 July 2026, with broadcast premieres on WAP TV, Wazobia TV and Rave TV to follow.
