I love to promote Nollywood whenever possible.
The sequel is very disappointing. The biggest problem is that the script didn't build on the original movie. The sub-storylines were excessive, disjointed and mostly unnecessary. The absolute hilarity and energy found in the original were completely nonexistent.
Some of the stronger character roles from the original like Ekanem, Donatus and Aunty Ajoke were barely heard from. We have no idea why Ireti and Dami Baggio seemingly abandoned their good-natured purposes, and are presented as very disconnected from their roles in the prequel Chief Daddy 1. Ireti's new role as an antagonist of the family was never addressed throughout the movie and sadly never resolved at the end of the movie.
The movie focuses mainly on Femi and Dami Baggio, the older sons of the late chief as well as escapades in Dubai. The costumes and set designs are beautiful but these do not mitigate the obvious lack of a cohesive storyline.
I love Nollywood and I pay homage to the late Rachel Oniga who passed away shortly after the film's production was completed. If you are going to create room for a sequel in the original movie, make sure that you carefully create a great sequel. Chief Daddy 1 is an endearing comedic classic for Nollywood and the sequel leaves us more than disappointed.

Chief Daddy 2 Disastrously Fails to Deliver Quality
First disaster recorded in 2022
A painstaking experience is the movie suggests that the entire cast and crew aim was to achieve the first disaster in 2022. A Netflix release date of 1st of January 2022 further suggests that was the sole intention. The acting was bad, the soundtrack were repetitive, the storyline was... (if there was one I would have described it here). The worst part, there could be a Chief Daddy 3.
When is going to end?
To summarize the plot, it was leaking like a sieve.
The characters somehow became a lot more annoying and unrealistic, plus no tangible development. Was it funny? Maybe it could be if you don't spend the near 2hrs watching the movie wanting to punch the director/screenwriter.
Why do these caliber of films make it past the home video format and into the big screens (platform wise) in big 2022? The world is watching, and these people are doing Nollywood's reputation no good... look at Nigeria's music industry for a change!
