The
fifth episode of Professor Johnbull is taking a radical departure from
preceding episodes as it is featuring one of Nigeria’s most sought-after music
stars, Chinedu Okoli, otherwise called ‘Flavour’, showing off his acting
skills.
Flavour’s
cameo appearance in this episode aptly entitled A Good Flavour, is going to
show a side of him that many of his fans never knew existed. He will be turning
up in the Enugu residence of the major character in the series, Professor
Johnbull (Kanayo O. Kanayo).
It
will be interesting to see how the meeting will go, considering the contempt
the highly cerebral senior citizen has for the decision of his son, Churchill,
an engineering-graduate, to become a musician.
In
the intellectual world of Professor Johnbull, music is not a choice befitting
of a son of a university don of several decades. Will he show this disposition
to this highly successful music darling of many Nigerians?
It
will also be interesting to see how Caro (Mercy Johnson Okojie), the illiterate
house maid of the retired professor and Elizabeth (Queen Nwokoye), the
undergraduate daughter of Professor Johnbull, will react to seeing Flavour in
their home. What impact will Flavour’s visit have on Churchill, who already
carries on like an international mega star even though he has not produced any
commercially available music?
The
episode also throws up a number of other issues, such as children upbringing,
household chores and parental guidance.
Episode
5 of the series will be shown on NTA network, NTA International (Channel 251 on
DSTV) and Startimes, on Tuesday at 8.30pm. Repeat broadcast
airs on Friday at the same time on the same stations.
