Malube is an accomplished artist—director, writer, actor, and content creator—hailing from Montreal, Quebec. She lives and breathes her artistry. She’s fallen in love with bringing female-centered stories to life in whatever form of storytelling she can. Malube feels strongly that it is important for these stories to be told through a female lens. Her hope is that female-driven stories continue to encourage and empower women to surmount the known and unknown obstacles they face on a day-to-day basis. She is thrilled to be taking part in narratives in which women are portrayed as multidimensional characters that look and behave like the complex human beings they are off-screen. Malube is thankful to Raolat for bringing Sehidat Adeleke to life.
character: sehidat adeleke, née oyedepo
Sehidat was offered admission to the University of Lagos’ College of Medicine, but declined and married a classmate who had received a full scholarship to SUNY Upstate Medical University. When Sehidat joined her husband in the US, she sought an opportunity to practice medicine. She found it at Grover. As a board certified Advanced Practice Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), Sehidat spent 13 years as Dahl’s second-in-command. The nurse was too exhausted from tending to her family during the day to prevent staff members from slacking off during the night shift. She knew which patients were so volatile that they needed to be drugged and/or restrained, and which needed to be listened to and truly seen in order to achieve equanimity. She was, therefore, beloved by staff and patients who were capable of feeling affection.
