Jammal Ibrahim on Playing SP Danladi Dikko in Showmax’s ‘Crime and Justice Lagos’ Vanessa Obioha What is it about your character that intrigued you the most? It is his calmness in the stone. Whenever anything is going crazy, he
It is his calmness in the stone. Whenever anything is going crazy, he is still. And it is in that stillness that he picks up the unusual, and from this unusual stuff, he finds the truth. So it is his calm in the chaos that I love and think is very intriguing. I think that if people could actually get that kind of attitude in themselves, I think that life will be easier for all of us, especially in Lagos. If people can chill for a bit and listen to the silence, they will find a world of reason.
As an actor, what are those things that you look at to show your improvement given how good acting can be intangible? I used to cringe when I saw myself on camera. I’ll probably watch it once and that’s it. ‘Crime and Justice Lagos’ is one of the shows that I have watched like 15 times, maybe 20 times now. And it’s not even been about the whole show because obviously, I was there when it was made. It’s about my performance. I just criticize myself every time I watch. It’s like, oh, maybe I should have said this way.
And I’ve noticed it has helped because from my first film to this one is like a trajectory that’s going upwards. And I’m grateful and happy about it. Also, I do a lot of research. I read books and watch a lot of YouTube videos. I register for masterclasses which are very important for me because knowledge is power. So I just try and get as much stuff on my head because it helps me grow. You can never stop learning.
