Cultural Context
The term "sakawa" is a Hausa word meaning "putting inside," referring to the practice of internet scammers using personal details found online (often from discarded e-waste) to create fake identities and defraud Westerners. A core aspect of the Dons in Sakawa film and other related movies (Sakawa Boys, Agya Koo Sakawa) is the dramatization of alleged rituals and spiritual fortification processes, such as sleeping in coffins or eating rubbish, which are believed to ensure the fraudsters' success.
