Veteran
Nollywood actor, Charles Okafor and his colleague, Kanayo O.
Kanayo this week join forces in the TV drama series, Professor Johnbull, to
flay the culture of sycophantic graft
and its unsavoury consequence on the society.
The
episode is titled "Find Me Something". Sponsor of the sitcom,
Globacom, explained that the topic is germane in contemporary society owing
to the widespread propensity of people to solicit tips for
services rendered regardless of whether or not the victim has the financial clout to
dispense such favours or not.
Said
Globacom, "The 'happy weekend, sir' syndrome, especially among people who
should ordinarily render services without expecting gratification, is becoming
worrisome and needs to be addressed. Viewers of the TV Series will find the
episode doing justice to the social ill as Professor Johnbull bares his mind on
the issue this Tuesday".
According
to the company, viewers would find the episode engaging as they
unravel the fulcrum of " Find me Something". The episode will expose
the brains behind the vice while it provides answers to posers like: How easily
do Churchill and Flash fall for Samson’s mischief as he waves
the ‘solicited tips’ wand on them? Will Professor Johnbull be able to
bridle his gateman's liking for tips? Is 'Oga find me something' a
societal vice or an individual habit? What provoked the erudite Professor
Johnbull to the extent of abandoning his delicious nkwobi midway at Olaniyi's restaurant?
Nollywood
actor, Charles Okafor, makes a cameo appearance in the episode and joins
forces with Professor Johnbull to find solution to the 'Oga find me
something’ syndrome.
Aside
from the academic who stars in the episode, this week's series of the
entertaining drama parades regulars of the sitcom including Abednego
(Martins Nebo), Ufoma (Bimbo Akintola), Churchill (Jnr. Pope Odonwodo), Flash
(Stephen Odimgbe), Olaniyi acted by Yomi Fash-Lanso, Samson (Ogus Baba), Jumoke
(Bidemi Kosoko), Elizabeth (Queen Nwokoye) and Professor Johnbull (Kanayo O.
Kanayo).
The drama airs from 8.30 p.m. to 9p.m. today on NTA Network, NTA
International on DSTV Channel 251 and NTA on StarTimes as repeats are scheduled
