A Naija Christmas

Movie · Holiday · Comedy

Ugo (Kunle Remi) is a player, a con man, the guy with the slick patter who talks women out of their clothes and investors out of their money. He's deep in debt to Tony Torpedo (Lateef Adedimeji), the loan shark who gave him money to keep his recording studio going. Waiting to be paid back, Tony is meanwhile beating Ugo up and helping himself to Ugo's belongings. Ugo's frustrated church-going mom demands that Ugo and his two grown brothers get married and give her grandchildren, offering ownership of the family house to the first one who ties the knot with a proper woman. Ugo, plotting to marry just anyone so he can sell the house and pay off Tony, tries to bring "improper" candidates for his mother's approval, but his mama knows what's up and says no. In desperation, Ugo pursues the chaste church-going Ajike (Segilola Ogidan), someone his mother is sure to approve. But Ajike is no fool and turns him down. Until she doesn't. His brother Obi (Efa Iwara) dates the wrong woman and then finds the right one. The last brother, Chike (Abayomi Alvin), has the same arc.
