Excuse me, sir.

I am Ifeanyi,
(HORNS HONKING)
and this is my friend, Joseph.
Joseph, fine boy.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Let's go.
You are here to ask
for another
extension, aren't you?
The deadline was two weeks ago.
Toun, let me pay for your entry.
No, ma.
Please, I want to pay myself.
If you pay, they
will think I cheated.
Only if you win.
I will.
Okay, very well.
You have until the
end of the month.

Soft work
Sex, problem kid

They say we the show going

What's up? (LAUGHING)
Hey, how's it?
Chilling, man,

What's up, now?
Please, please stop it.
See this one.
Even (MUMBLING)
close to the ground,

Quam, Quam.
Hey.
Quam, Quam, good to see you.
You need to be
careful, careful.
Yeah, thanks, man.
(MUMBLING) Be careful.
Quam.
Binta, baby, girl,

Baby, is that (MUMBLING) water.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Because I even called your name.
Sweetheart, I've
missed you so much now.
I'm waiting here since morning.
This is my (MUMBLING).
Sorry, Quam?
Yes.
Are you not on night duty?
Baby, I said I miss you.
In fact, I just
(MUMBLING), okay...
Quam, are you
not on night shift?

That's kind of insult.
How much is it?

Yeah, wait.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Baby, thank you so much.
Thank you, baby.
Thank you.
Wait, wait...
Quam.
Is that not your entrance fee
you just gave you?
Calm down.
Even I see you
don't even matter...
Calm down.
When will you realize
that this boy is using you?
Auntie Amina gave me
to the end of the month.
Quam will pay me before then.
Quam will pay you.
Eh.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
BINTA: Don't fall in
love with Quam, (mumbling).
(SINGING)
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Welcome, please sit down.
While you still standing here?
Don't waste my customers.
WOMAN: Sorry.
Where is the fish
for this place?
(MUMBLING)
Auntie Fatima.
My daughter, welcome.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I'll see you on fish nights.
Sit there.
Your table is waiting.

No kill me.
Where is the fish?
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
No, it's coming.
It's coming, please. (MUMBLING)
These girls no kill me.
This one, I said
I will pay you...
Mommy, (MUMBLING).
Toun Toun, look at you.
You are looking good, very well.
It's not okay.
What do you want?
We paid you for the
month last week.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
You have to pay again,
good for our agreement.
I will pay you on
your new schedule.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I no want yesterday again.
No problem.
Toun Toun.
Toun Toun.
(YELLING)
My eyes (MUMBLING).
You must go.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Yeah, Touns, I will
call (MUMBLING).
What are we going to do?
Don't worry.
I'll find a way...
Mommy...
Go back to Binta.
It's okay.
Come on.
Everything will be fine.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(SINGING)
What's up now?
(MUMBLING)
Hey, mama.
(MUMBLING)
Are you crazy?
Toun...
If my mother sees you...
What are you doing here?
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Didn't I tell you not
to come here again?
Get out.
Get out now.
Quam,
Quam, are you mad?
Why didn't you just call me?
Honey, I've called in credit.
I can't even (MUMBLING).
Why you not at work?
Man, supervisor
say that the money
that I supposed to pay them
because I didn't
pay them timely now,
the money have doubled.
I don't have another
three K to give you, Quam.
I don't have any money.
(MUMBLING)
You know, tonight
is grilled fish night.
Your mother will not notice.
Can just proceed in that
place and then just...
No.
Babe, babe, you can...
I'm not stealing from
my mother again, Quam.
I'm not stealing for my mother.
Okay, okay,
(MUMBLING) know that
if I didn't able
to get this money,
there is no way
I can able to pay
for my last final
certification exam.
You know this.
You know this, but
you don't care.
You don't care.
Wait.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I have an idea.
Toun, your mother
cannot find me.
If she find me here
like this, I'm finished.
Quam, so you're okay
with me stealing from her,
but you're scared of
her catching you here.
She may discipline
me for stealing,
but if she still find
me here like this,
she will (SPEAKING IN
A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Toun, what are you doing?
Uncle Johnny will give you
10K for it, give or take.
Toun, I cannot sell
your sewing machine now.
I want you to
have enough to pay
for your content exam.
Ah, baby, you are the first
lady I have met in my life
that would do something
so sweet for me...
FATIMA: Toun.
(MUMBLING)
Mom, Mommy.
Mommy, anything.
Why are you still
seeing that boy?
Oh, Mommy, let's not...
Let's not what?
That boy got you to steal
from your own mother.
We didn't steal from you.
We just borrowed it.
If MMM did not crash,
now I would have paid you
back in full with interest.
Where's your sewing machine?
Ma.
Don't ma me.
Did you give that boy
your sewing machine?
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Hey, why did you give that
boy your sewing machine?
He needs money for his
accounting registration.
He will pay me back at
the end of the month.
No, no, he won't.
That boy is using you.
He's using the fact
that you're loyal,
and you're kind
and you always see
the best in everyone.
He doesn't deserve you.
Mommy, will you
please trust me.
It's not you
that I don't trust.
(YELLING)
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Baby, I will pay you back.
I swear it.
Thank you.
Uh, bad guys
Soft work
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
He didn't pay you (MUMBLING).
No, did he pay you?
They deduct (MUMBLING)
from my allowance.
That's why he didn't
have enough money.
Good for you.
(MUMBLING) it's good for you.
This is bullshit.
When are you going to realize
that this boy is
playing you, eh?
Take.
What's that?
Money for your entry fee.
I knew he wasn't
going to pay you,
so I saved this for you.
(MUMBLING)
Binta, I can't take your...
Take it.
Like you have a choice.
Give me this thing.
That's it.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Original baby
Wherever you go
(MUMBLING)
It's okay.
It's Quam.
Original baby
Whatever you do
better be true
Original bobo
No matter the pressure
Be yourself
(MUMBLING) The
money no complete.
My money no complete.
That is all I have.
Mommy, you won't
believe what Binta...
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Toun Toun, (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Toun Toun.
My money no complete too.
My money no...
That's all I have.
I will pay you.
Now I told you.
(MUMBLING)
Money not complete at all.
Take.
Take now.
Toun Toun.
That's 20K.
I'll give you (MUMBLING)
on the next pay rent.
(MUMBLING)
Toun Toun, (MUMBLING).
Why are you running from me?
(MUMBLING)
Thank you.
Toun Toun.
(MUMBLING)
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I forgot how to be
The kind of person
that you asked me to be
I forgot how to see
Love in everything
I forgot totally
My brother say you love me
I love him too
My ma call me
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I call her
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
But my neighbor no like me
I hate him too
And mom call me stupid
I call her a fool
'Cause I forgot how to love
The way you asked me to
Remind me
Remind me how to love
(BIRDS CHIRPING)
(MUMBLING)
So you, you don't
know how to add, okay,
and where's the
change from last week?
(MUMBLING)
You say?
I put the change back.
Okay, your salary
(MUMBLING), then...
Mrs. Odumosu?
It's miss.
What do you want?
Is your daughter home?
If I agreed, she's
to be left alone.
Mommy.
I'm working double shifts today.
I'll be back...
Okay, okay, you
can go to work, eh?
Go to work.
It's fine.
Everything is fine
What's going on?
Who are you?
Your father is dead.
Yeah, he died years ago.
No, he died three weeks ago.
We buried him today.
Toun.
Tell me.
He asked that he
tell you himself.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I could have known you better.
I'm sorry you thought
I was hitting on you.
I wanted to talk to you
just once before I died.
I made a mess of that,
just like I've made
a mess of everything
where it concerns you.
From what I see,
you have turned out to
be a fine young woman.
I don't have the right
to ask this of you,
but I would like you
to carry on my legacy.
What did he do?
He left her a controlling
interest in the Audere Group.
No, we had a deal.
What does this mean?
Vilonia.
That's what she said,
and that he left me something
called Audere Group.
Toun, why did you mother
see a rich man like this?
I don't know.
I didn't ask.
I just left.
Toun.
Don't Toun me.
Binta, she lied to
me about my father
for my entire life.
Uh uh.
Did you say Audere Group?
Come let me show you something.
Come.
See now, wait,
Audere Group, see?
How did you know?
I said I served
in the same factory
in (SPEAKING IN A
FOREIGN LANGUAGE),
but they didn't retain me.
I thought you worked
for Happy Foods.
Happy Food is on
the Audere Group now.
They own a lot of companies.
See, Happy Food, Audere.
Hey, so this is your
new duty (MUMBLING).
If you continue at this rate,
you will soon both
be out of work.
Hey, one madam is
looking for you outside.
Get away from here.
Yes, well done, because this
is the new job you have.
Binta, what is your problem?
(MUMBLING)
(HORN BLOWING)
My dear, you ran off.
We have so much to discuss.
I'm sorry, ma'am, but can
I please have some time?
Of course.
How about I send a car
over for you this evening?
Is that okay?
Thank you, and I'm
sorry for your loss.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Thank you.
See you later.
Bye.
I'm supposed to
take only Ms. Toun.
I need her please.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
As you wish.
Oh boy, just look
at somebody's house.
Toun?
(MUMBLING)
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
(MUMBLING)
Thank you.
Thank you so much for coming.
(MUMBLING)
(CRYING)
The service entrance
is at the back.
It's okay, (MUMBLING).
They're my guests.
Sorry to have kept
you all waiting.
Toun.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
She's the owner
of Audere holdings?
PATRICK: Can we
challenge the will?
CHUKA: Patrick.
Look, he killed himself, dad,
which kind of argues that he
was not in his right mind.
He killed himself?
He had a terrible disease
called multiple sclerosis.
It weakens the nerves,
and his could have
led to dementia,
so he decided to
take his own life.
So he killed himself
because he was going crazy?
Your father was in
possession of his faculties,
even though tests revealed
he was degenerating...
Of course you
were gonna say that.
You're his little loyal boy.
Look, dad we...
Mr. Ifeanyi was examined by
a barrage of psychiatrists,
Mr. Patrick, who
certified his mental state
at the time the
will was drafted.
Thank you, Joseph.
It doesn't matter.
We will not be
challenging the will.
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You should have told me.
He made me promise not to.
(LAUGHING)
'Til the end, he
still didn't trust me.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Welcome to the family.
See you tomorrow.
What did he mean
by see you tomorrow?
Why am I the CEO of Audere?
Audere holdings owns
majority of the shares
of the Audere Group,
and so they have the rights
to appoint the next CEO
Until then, the owner
serves as the acting CEO.
This is insane.
I can't run a company.
I'm a shop girl.
Why would he do this?
He believed you could run it.
What if I don't want it?
Can't you appoint somebody else?
The next Board
meeting is in 60 days.
You can nominate
someone else then.
It can be quicker.
Please, just wait the 60 days.
Let's see how it all plays out.
Take me home, please.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
Ifeanyi and I got married
while he was building Audere.
His family was rich.
They opposed the marriage,
the usual drama.
The scandal was affecting
him in business.
Everyone was a
friend of the family.
I went to his
mother to reconcile
She told me to leave him,
that she could have
the marriage annulled.
And you agreed?
I did.
I did what was best for him
because I loved him.
And me?
What was best for me?
I didn't know I
was pregnant then.
I went to tell him,
but he was already dating
his current wife, (MUMBLING).
How did he find out about me?
The JSS prize you
won when you were 12,
it made the papers.
Why did he care?
He was married.
His wife couldn't
have children.
He wanted...
Me,
and you said no.
I allowed him to
fund your education.
The scholarship, that was him.
Why?
Why not just tell me?
I could have had 11 years
with him, not one day.
You took that from me.
I thought you
would choose him.
You should have trusted me.
Think you would have
chosen to live here
instead of (MUMBLING)?
I guess we'll never
know now, will we?
Ha.
Even when it got too hard
Too hard for me to care
I forgot how to try
My baby says she hungry
I give them food
I tell them I would
do anything for you
But a stranger say, please
I no get you
I look him like this
Say who are you
Your driver is
waiting outside.
(SINGING)
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Toun, talk to me, please,
I love you, Mommy,
but I need some space right now.
(SINGING)
Uh, yeah
Soft work
Yeah
Toun.
(SINGING)
Quam.
Toun, I don't like this now.
I placed a call
to you yesterday.
You didn't pick (MUMBLING).
I was busy.
You are busy for me, Toun?
For me.
It's okay.
Anyway, see
(MUMBLING) called me.
He said that there
is a serious buyer
for the sewing machine.
Yes, but the person
want to pay 15,000.
He said if I'm able to match it,
he can give me this machine,
so sweetheart, I don't know.
(MUMBLING) you can help me too.
I don't know.
Maybe you can help me
to talk to your mother.
My mother?
Quam.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Toun, Toun, (MUMBLING)
who have this car?
It's mine.
Look, I'll explain
everything later.
Let's meet at our place at 3:00.
It's your own?
(MUMBLING)
(SINGING)
Uh yeah, soft work
Yeah
(SINGING)
Uh yeah, soft work
Uh yeah
(SINGING)
It's the life we chose
I could have
been in chambers
50,000 (MUMBLING).
No regrets, this
one they pay pass
(MUMBLING)
Check this thing, man.
(MUMBLING)
Uncle Johnny.
(MUMBLING)
Good morning.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
How are you?
I'm fine, good morning.
Welcome, eh?
Yes, sir.
Welcome.
Quam said it's
15K to (MUMBLING),
so I've come to.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
25,000 naira now.
Why is it 25,000 naira now?
Just this morning, Quam told
me it's 15,000, Uncle Johnny.
You have a (MUMBLING) machine.
Yes, yes, I do.
(MUMBLING)
I don't get a lot
(SINGING)
And I don't pay my rent
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
The company wide email
went out this morning.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
(MUMBLING)
Welcome.
Please.
(MUMBLING)
Where are you going?
This is an executive
committee meeting.
He's not a member.
Don't worry.
You'll be fine.
We don't bite.
Speak for yourself.
Right, this is Ganiyu Osamede.
We're still training him.
Now let me introduce you to,
you don't have to
hold up your hand.
Why are all of you
okay with me as CEO?
That's a good question.
We are not like most companies.
All the people you see here
are CEOs in their own right,
running their own subsidiaries,
well, apart from
Patrick and Angela.
He runs strategy, and
she runs communications,
and as for me, I am
head of operations.
AKA adult supervision.
(LAUGHING)
Okay, so if all
of you are CEOs,
what will I be doing?
You review the performance
of their businesses.
You decide if you want
to buy more businesses.
Is it that simple?
Simple is relative.
So it doesn't really
matter if I'm bad at it?
Oh, it matters a great deal.
Your job is to
think of the future
whilst we focus on the present.
Don't worry.
It will make sense
as we go along.
Let's get into it.
Ganiyu.
Yeah.
You start.
Okay.
You are crazy.
All of you are crazy.
This is insane.
I can't run a company.
She can't run Audere.
You saw her.
She did okay and wasn't
afraid to ask questions.
You should be the
one running Audere.
That's enough, Patrick.
That's enough.
Me, I can't last
60 days though.
I have set up a meeting...
I don't think we're there yet.
You're pretty.
That works.
Can you read?
Yes, I can read.
Here are your business cards.
How did you get
my phone number?
Would you like to change
anything about the office?
No.
Okay, here is
your company laptop
and your company phone.
Your new number will start
working in 20 minutes.
You need clothes.
I will send my stylist to
meet you within the hour.
We have an
appointment at the bank.
Fine, bring her
when you're done.
I will send an address.
I'm having lunch my boyfriend.
Fine, you send an address,
and I will meet you there
and take you to the stylist.
So you're now a billionaire?
Yes, yes, she is.
Great, now that
that's out of the way,
this is your brief for tonight.
(MUMBLING)
This is a lie.
Everything in here is a lie.
I wasn't trained by my father.
You're the acting CEO of
a billion dollar company
with three listed subsidiaries.
You need to present an image
that instills confidence.
I was a salesgirl
in his super markets.
Ifeanyi was a driver
before he became CEO.
It's part of his mystique.
This is insane.
This is business
Sorry, (MUMBLING) CEO.
Toun, (MUMBLING)
are calling CEO.
Yes, my father made me CEO.
Well, technically your
shares made you CEO.
Anyone can be appointed CEO.
So that's why you're
being nice to me.
You are hoping that maybe
I'll make you the CEO.
I am being nice to you
because I'm the head of
corporate communications
in one of the biggest
companies in Nigeria.
I am being nice to you
because we employ
thousands of people
and serve millions of consumers,
and we need them to believe
that everything will be okay.
I am being nice to you
because you are my CEO,
and I am very good at my job.
(MUMBLING)
What do you need me to do?
We're going to eat our mala,
and then we're going
to get to work.
Welcome to Moments Nigeria.
Today, our guest
is Toun Odumosu.
She is the new CEO
of the Audere Group,
and interesting fact,
she is the youngest CEO
in the company's history.
(MUMBLING) and so nice
to have you on Moments.
It's nice to be here.
You look absolutely
gorgeous, by the way.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Fantastic, so
your father Ifeanyi
was really a visionary.
Do you feel you'll be able
to live up to his legacy?
The truth is
nothing prepares you
to be CEO except being CEO.
She's killing it.
TOUN: Although working
at the supermarket
did give me a feel of...
Who are you?
Her best friend.
TOUN: At the ground level,
but thankfully I have...
Say that when she'll need you.
(MUMBLING)
WOMAN: So tell me
more about your team
and how you've all have
been working together.
Okay, so at Audere Group
we have a (MUMBLING).
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(LAUGHING)
That's not your bed.
Get up.
(MUMBLING)
Go on, go to your house.
BINTA: Which house?
(SINGING)
'Cause I'm a little boring
But I'm the life
of the party
'Cause I'm kind of funny
Money don't drive me
I drive my money
(SINGING)
It's amazing.
What?
(SINGING)
Because I come in peace
(SINGING)
And that's all I need, yeah
See you tomorrow.
Everything's
not for everyone
And that is okay
You gotta take me as I am
I'll be better
But I'll never
be somebody else
Original baby
Yeah, wherever you
go, be yourself
Original bobo
You can't ever
be somebody else
Original baby
Whatever you do,
better be true
Original bobo
Oh
No matter the
pressure, be yourself
I drank a little too much
CHUKA: You did
well yesterday.
Thank you, uncle.
We're here to
approve an additional
$10 million investment
into women's fashion.
What is it for?
We're automating and
standardizing designs
for our women's lines.
Why?
Nigerian women hate
standardized fashion.
(LAUGHING)
That's what I said.
We've had a little success
with automation in the past.
And in women's fashion?
So you don't support
the investment?
It's your call.
We can't do this
without your say so.
I don't think we should do it.
Dad.
Tell (MUMBLING) to
come up with a new plan
for women's fashion.
As you wish.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(CAR ENGINES RUNNING)
Wow, you mean
your father sent you
to work here just
to understand FMCG.
That's what they are saying.
Please, please,
please customers are trying to eat here.
Am I not a customer too?
You're going to
make (MUMBLING).
She will make me pay for that.
Only because
you're letting her.
Toun, I don't work for you.
But you applied for the
food science job yourself.
And I didn't get it
'till you became CEO.
(LAUGHING)
Why do you think it has
anything to do with me?
I'm not stupid, no.
Your (MUMBLING) is here.
(MUMBLING)
I think we might
have a problem.
It is a press release
announcing you winner
of Fashion Week's Next Rated.
I don't see what
the big deal is.
You don't see what
the big deal is?
Please explain to your client
what the big deal is.
Our narrative is
that your father
prepared you for
the role of CEO.
A fashion show undercuts that.
It means you have
other interests.
But I worked for
this for years.
You want me to turn it down?
If you want to be CEO, yes.
But I'm already CEO.
Acting CEO.
The Board of Directors
still need to approve
for your position
to be permanent,
and they won't if they see you
prancing around on a runway.
This is not fair.
You're pulling out.
How can you be pulling out?
It doesn't fit
with our priorities.
I was not talking to you.
Toun, please talk to me.
It doesn't fit
with my priorities.
How can you do this to her?
We need to have
a press conference.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
It's sometimes hard to say
What we're fighting for
Sometimes you
don't want to say
Auntie Fatima,
is anything wrong?
You're fighting for
And when we're
walking in the streets
(MUMBLING)
I did.
Angie?
Did we have anything planned?
Well, now we do.
I don't feel like (MUMBLING).
(MUMBLING) and that's
all that matters.
Go on, dress up.
Let's go to the bank.
I have been invited (MUMBLING)
your boyfriend, Quam,
and I got us VIP tickets.
Go on, dress up now.
Let's go.
(MUMBLING)
See that's your tights dress.
Remember that's one that
shows your shit very.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Yeah, that's why you
don't need those (MUMBLING).
Private party.
Uh uh, (MUMBLING) now.
Private party.
(MUMBLING)
Look at his face
now. (MUMBLING)
Binta.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's not.
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Hi, I will pay for all
your drinks tonight
if you let us have your table.
Sure?
Yes.
Wait, what are you doing?
I'm having fun.
(MUMBLING)
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Hey, hey, hey.
(MUMBLING)
Madam, the bottles are here.
Please.
I can see that.
Bring these bottles.
Put them on top of (MUMBLING).
(MUMBLING)
(MUMBLING) Bring it.
I'm sorry, sir,
but we have (MUMBLING)
ran out of this.
What's that?
We have completely sold out.
What are you talking about?
(MUMBLING)
There are no drinks.
(MUMBLING)
Go and find out who's
making noise (MUMBLING).
Sit down.
Sit down.
Let me.
I want to see.
My brother,
my brother and his girlfriend.
(MUMBLING)
They bought out the bar.
Huh?
My brother and his
girlfriend bought out the bar.
Your brother?
(MUMBLING)
Your brother buy
out my (MUMBLING).
Enjoy yourself.
This is my (MUMBLING).

What is this magic
I need that magic
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
All the fine girls

(CHEERING)

pleasure to meet you.
(MUMBLING)
Okay, is that why
you were able to buy
all these (MUMBLING)?
(MUMBLING)
I want to help you,
but it's more difficult
I tried to put
(SINGING)
You have joined bad guy
You have joined secret cult
All the fine girls
have joined in
Toun, wait now, wait.
Wait for me now, Toun.
Wait.
Toun, wait now.
What?
Wait now.
You invited her, Binta.
This is your mother,
for crying out loud.
She's worried about you.
That woman is
not your business.
You help.
It's not your business.
Why have you
been avoiding her?
And it's not me you
just spoke to like that.
Okay, yes, oh, but Binta,
you shouldn't have done
it behind my back now.
You pity the woman now.
Just talk to her.
Wait, where are you going?
I'm going home.
Who is supposed to
pay for those drinks?
Take.
The pin is three,
three, one, eight.
Knock yourself out.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I forgot how to be
The kind of person
that you asked me to be
I forgot how to see
love in everything
I forgot totally
My brother say he love me
I love him too
My ma call me
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I call her
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
But my neighbor now like me
I hate him too
And ma call me stupid
I call her a fool
'Cause I forgot how to love
The way you asked me to
Remind me
Remind me how to love
To love
I don't know what I'm
supposed to do with this.
How does she just
get here and then?
I don't know.
How hard does one
feel like this?
I don't know.
You spent four
million last night.
What are you talking about?
It's all over social media,
drinking,
dancing on tables and chairs,
being rowdy,
and the coup de grace.
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Things got a
little out of hand.
Little?
You call this a little?
Are you crazy?
CHUKA: Patrick.
What?
She's disgraced
this entire company.
Angela, can we fix this?
I can try.
Try not to do any
more crazy shit.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
How much longer
must this continue?
She's Ifeanyi's choice.
Uncle Ifeanyi was crazy.
Yes, he was your brother,
but he was.
You built this company
with him for 20 years.
Are you really gonna
leave it in her hands,
let her destroy your legacy?
I can't be seen to.
She has to choose to step down.
Four million naira.
Why are you shouting?
Were you not the one that said
I should buy the whole bar?
Your boyfriend Quam was just
ordering things in here.
Champagne alone was
one million naira.
You should be
thanking me, silly.
If not for me, you would
have spent six million naira.
(MUMBLING)
Thank you.
1,000.
(MACHINE RUNNING)
(PHONE RINGING)
I'll see you later.
I have school.
Goodbye.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(MUMBLING)
Thank you for coming.
You see (SPEAKING IN A
FOREIGN LANGUAGE) over there?
She's the new rising star,
but she's not you.
Why are you showing me this?
You spent four million
naira last night.
I was celebrating.
Celebrating what?
Giving up on your dreams?
I have decided to leave a
slot open in the show for you.
Thank you, but I'm
going to have to decline.
I will leave the
slot open anyway.
Look, I've had this lecture.
I don't need another one.
(HORNS HONKING)
Your father was
right about you.
10 years ago, I was your
father's driver for a day in PH.
I drove him from the
airport into town.
There was traffic,
so we had a three
hour conversation.
At the end, he knew I was
a law graduate from uni,
(MUMBLING) couldn't
afford law school.
He paid for my law school,
sent me to Harvard
for a Master's in law
and hired me immediately.
How nice of him.
My point is
Ifyeani was gifted,
so if he thinks you can be CEO,
he's right.
I just got offered
a spot at Fashion Week
if I want it.
Then take it.
I'm sure your Uncle Chuka
will be fine as CEO.
Why does he get
to choose my life?
Why?
That someone chooses for you
doesn't make it
the wrong choice.
Why can't I just have both?
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Sometimes we
don't get to choose.
Thank you.
Angela,
can we talk?
What can I help you
with, Ms. Odumosu?
I just want to
say that I'm sorry
You've been nothing
but great to me,
and all I've done is
waste all your effort.
Not all, just most.
Can we fix it?
You want me to do a reality show
touring the
company's facilities?
That's brilliant.
By highlighting you as
CEO doing CEO things,
it will make it
difficult for them
not to approve you.
Thank you.
We're going to have to
do more with your look.
I'll do anything
you want me to do.
By the time we're
done with you,
not only are you going to
look like a genius CEO,
but everyone is going to
agree that you are one.
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Yeah, so do you
feel like a CEO yet?
Do you ever feel like CEO?
(LAUGHING)
I'm sorry.
You used those exact same words
for all your interviews.
You haven't seen
all my interviews.
Of course I have.
Why?
Well, 'cause you're my CEO.
I wanted to get to know you.
And what have you found out?
That Angela is a
damn good writer.
(LAUGHING)
I'm going to report you.
To who?
I'm CEO.
Yeah.
Oh, so sorry.
(PHONE RINGING)
Hello.
I'm coming.
I'm coming
I'm so sorry.
I have to leave.
That's fine.
We can continue later
tonight at dinner.
You can't say no.
Fine, where do I meet you?
I'll call Joseph, okay?
Alright.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
What's going on here?
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
You look like our sister.
Sure you understand,
so that's why we just
want you to join us.
Join you?
MAN: Yeah.
Join you how?
As the investment now.
You know, investment,
you invest, you know?
Investment, you think
I want to marry you?
I mean, Quam, (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Toun.
Toun, wait.
Toun.
How could you do that to me?
This is great opportunity.
So great you had to ambush me.
Toun, that was just
the light presentation.
What is the problem (MUMBLING)?
What's the problem?
Quam, you are my boyfriend,
and you're plotting against me.
These not plotting, Toun.
This is sport betting.
Do know that with 200 million
there is high probability
that you can make
two billion naira?
How much is your cut?
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
10% of the amount.
Toun, I'm not going
to take catch.
I just want to
secure my investment
so I can help to
build my future.
You know what I've
always wanted.
What about the exam?
You pass it now, and you
become an accountant.
I can't (MUMBLING).
That was our plan.
But then you
became a billionaire.
Will you date me if I'm
collecting 40,000 naira?
That is my choice, Quam.
It is my choice.
I need this, Toun.
Why is it always about
what you need, what you want?
I'm such a fool.
You know, I thought
I was more to you,
but I was wrong.
20 million naira
is nothing to you.
I know that if I can
able to secure this deal,
this might change
my life forever.
How can you say no to that?
Four years with you,
and this is what it comes to.
Toun, I beg you,
please, please.
This is not the kind of
man that I can disappoint.
You told him I'll do it.
Quam, if I do this, me
and you, we are through.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I will send you
my account details.
JOSEPH: Are you okay?
Can I invest 200 million
naira in that company?
You want to do the deal...
Just answer the question.
As CEO of Audere, your
personal investment threshold
is 50 million.
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
You have to do this
through Audere.
Make the arrangements.
Toun, I don't think this...
I didn't ask you what
you thought, Joseph.
Just do it.
As you wish, Ms. Odumosu.
(PHONE RINGING)
Yes, Mr. Osamede,
I got the address.
(HORN HONKING)
Are you still having dinner
with Osamede tonight?
Yes, I am.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(CUTLERY RATTLING)
How are you?
Good.
You look beautiful.
Thank you.
You can go.
I'll take her home.
It's okay, Joseph.
I'll be fine.
(MUMBLING)
(LIQUID POURING)
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Enjoy your drink, ma'am.
Thank you.
So what do you mean
by got off easy?
Well, for one, you
signed a good deal today,
and for 200 million you
found out your boyfriend
is an asshole.
That's easy.
So you think it's a good deal?
You do.
If not, you wouldn't
have signed the deal,
boyfriend or no boyfriend.
I just wish he'd have told me,
like why did he have
to go behind my back?
He wanted a cut.
He comes to you,
he doesn't get one.
So are you saying
what he did was right?
(LAUGHING) Of course not.
He's an asshole.
That's why you should
hang around rich people
like me who want you
and not you money.
Thank you.
So what movie are we watching?
I'm sorry?
I have this really
sweet home system
and connects in Hollywood,
so we can watch
whatever movie we want.
How about we go to
the cinema instead?
(LAUGHING) Right, what film?
Wedding Party Two.
Never heard of it.
Hold on.
What? (LAUGHING)
It's a Nollywood film?
Great, there's a
viewing at 11:00 P.M.
Shall we?
Okay, after you.
So what do you mean you
only do what matters to you?
Again, it's like at work.
You do what everyone else
wants you to do, right?
Everyone is depending on
you, looking up to you.
Tell me about it.
Exactly, but in
your private life,
you want to do what
you want to do,
you know, create
some sort of balance.
But I have friends, family.
I can't just ignore, shit.
What?
It's my friend's
birthday today,
and I told her I'll
meet her at the beach.
Oh, I'll take you there.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Okay.
Oh, she's going to kill me.
Oh my God.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(LAUGHING)
Oh, don't cut me off.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Man, I saw you
dancing like this.
I'm like, wow.
Hi, everybody.
Hi.
Hi.
(SINGING)
Binta.
Binta, I'm sorry I missed it.
I understand, man.
I know you're a very
busy person, man.
Don't be like that.
Don't be like what, man?
Tell me how you
want me to be like,
so that I'll adjust, man.
But I said I'm sorry.
Your mother said
she was sorry too.
When was the last
time you spoke to her?
Binta, don't go there.
Or what?
You'll stop being my friend?
See, you stopped being
my friend the second
you became a billionaire.
It just took me this
long to realize it.
Toun, you missed my birthday.
(SINGING)
Here, keys to my apartment
and a brand new car for you
so you don't have any issues
getting to your new job.
Here.
A letter of employment
from County Food's food
science department.
Don't worry.
It's not one of my companies,
and yes, I stopped
being your friend.
Happy birthday.
(SINGING)
(CAR ENGINE RUNNING)
I'm sorry.
That's the thing
about these people.
You can't just...
Not right now, please.
Do you want anything?
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Give you what you want
Give you what you need
Let me take you far away
Let me set you free
(LAUGHING)
Give you what you want
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
You're my moon and my sun
Only one, I be traveling
around where you're from
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
BINTA: Hello.
Hello.
Hey, you better not have
finished that ice cream.
Okay,
I'll let you two talk.
Binta.
I'm sorry I missed it.
Yesterday you gave
me keys to your flat,
a car, and my dream job.
Yes, you're my best friend.
It's...
And you can take
all of that away.
Binta, I would
never do that to you.
Toun, you are changing.
if I had told you
a few weeks ago
that you stopped
talking to your mom,
would you have believed me?
Okay, so what does that mean?
We're no longer friends.
See, if you need
me to be your friend,
you can't give me keys to
your flat, a car, and a job.
I was...
I need to be me,
and this isn't me.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
(LAUGHING)
Wait, I haven't forgotten
about my present.
I haven't finished talking.
Oh yeah, finish it.
Come now.
(LAUGHING)
Have you seen this?
What is it?
It's the due diligence reports
on the betting
company Toun bought.
How bad is it?
(LAUGHING) I mean, it's
owned by a local gang.
Look, the CEO is even
on trial for murder.
Have you told Toun?
Why not?
She didn't ask
for due diligence.
The legal guys
just did their job,
and the investment, well,
that's already gone through.
Dammit.
Actually, this,
this is good for us.
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(PHONE RINGING)
Yes, Joseph, I know
I'm running late.
JOSEPH: Mrs. (mumbling)
would like to see you
before you go into the office.
What?
Why?
JOSEPH: She didn't say.
I would advise that you
honor the invitation.
Okay, whatever.
I'll be there.
I don't understand.
You did approve
this deal, yes?
Did you wait for a full due
diligence report to be done?
What is a due
diligence report?
What on earth are
you teaching her?
Please answer my question
or make your point.
A due diligence report
is a thorough review.
The due diligence of
this company shows
that it's been run by criminals.
If that's what
they wanted to know,
all they had to do was ask me.
So you knew they
were criminals?
You can't invest in a company
that's run by criminals.
Why not?
Because their
money is not clean.
But we bought Shaiyu,
and the CEO of Shaiyu's
father was a governor.
Is her money clean?
It's not the same thing.
Well, maybe it is, but
it's not seen as the same.
Okay, I'll explain it to them.
I'm afraid it's
too late for that.
Chuka has already called
an emergency Board meeting.
No problem.
I'll explain it there.
I expect that he will
pressure you to resign
and hire someone else.
Oh.
He's trying to get rid of me?
Yes, and the Board
is firmly behind him.
Including you?
No, he doesn't have me.
Thank you for telling me.
I said you can't go in.
He's in a meeting.
It's alright, Nikki.
It's fine.
So what was all that bullshit,
that bullshit
about supporting me
and helping me succeed?
What are you talking about?
What are you doing?
Working out an angle
for my resignation, (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)?
Resignation,
what resignation?
Your father here called
an emergency Board meeting
to get me to resign.
Dad, is this true?
She did it to herself.
Her continued recklessness,
I mean, she backed criminals.
Even if I made a mistake,
this one is easily fixable.
In your opinion.
I can fight.
I can refuse to appoint a CEO.
Thus destroying
your father's legacy
just after his death.
No, seriously, good job.
Look, it doesn't have
to be like this, okay?
There doesn't have
to be conflict.
All you have to do is just
craft a new statement that
you don't want to be CEO.
You want me to take over.
You want to chase your own
path in fashion design.
You're debuting at the
Lagos Fashion Week.
What do you mean
Lagos Fashion Week?
I heard they kept
a spot for you.
And who told you that?
Look, Toun, it doesn't
matter who told me.
In fact, Toun?
Toun?
How long have you
been working for them?
What are you talking about?
Uncle Chuka mentioned
Lagos Fashion Week.
Who else could have told him?
What are you accusing me of?
You have been working
with them behind my back
to take this company from me.
You have been content
to play CEO on TV
and have refused
to put in the work
to move this company forward.
I warned you about the purchase,
but you shut me out.
Nobody had to conspire
against you, Toun.
You did this to yourself.
BINTA: Are they
going to bounce you?
Looks like it.
Will they take your money?
No, that one is mine to keep.
(MUMBLING)
Everything is sorted,
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Oh, you want to become CEO.
Yes.
Until they tried
to take it from me,
I didn't realize how much
I actually want to be CEO.
Binta, I can do this.
Hey, what about fashion?
Anyway, how are you
going to remain CEO?
I don't know.
(MUMBLING)
You are right.
Thank you.
Buy something.
She's looking.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(MUMBLING)
We are here, ma'am.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
They are trying
to get me to resign.
Is that what you
want to talk about?
We haven't spoken
in over a month,
and this is what you say to me?
Fine,
I'll start.
I was selfish.
I gave up everything for him.
I didn't see why I had
to give you up too.
I am sorry.
You were right.
Mommy, I've been a
billionaire for what?
Six weeks, and my life
is completely crazy.
I can barely handle it at 23.
At 12?
Only God knows what
would have happened.
I'm sorry.
Thank you for being
my everything.
Oh,
but Mommy, this could be
anybody in this picture.
Okay, fine, it's me,
but why are you following
him on Instagram?
When did you even
get on Instagram?
When you stopped
talking to me.
I have to get information
about you somehow.
That is why I'm
not shouting on you
for having a man in your house,
so you guys had
to get (MUMBLING).
(LAUGHING)
I don't know.
Maybe.
Oh my God.
Whoa, that is the most
hideous thing I have ever seen.
Be nice.
I saved for months to buy it.
Well, that doesn't
speak to your judgment.
Should I be worried, Ms. CEO?
Shut up.
Do you know I sewed my
way into Fashion Week
on that machine?
I even got in,
like there's a spot
waiting for me right now
if I want it.
You used to be a designer
before all of this?
Well, I was working on it.
Want to work on
something else?
Are you okay?
Yes, yes, Mommy,
but I have to go.
Oh, oh, oh, okay.
I have to go.
Okay.
Sorry.
Okay, user interface,
the colors, what don't
you like about the colors?
Can we talk in private?
Sure, can you
give me 10 minutes?
I need to run feedback
with the guys.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
(GRUNTING)
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You asshole, you
plotted against me.
Plot is strong word.
I was trying to help you.
Trying to help me by
helping them take my job.
I thought you
didn't want the job.
Maybe you should
have spoken to me
before you stabbed
me in the back.
Toun,
I'm sorry.
EBUBE: Thank you
for coming, Joseph.
How may I help you, ma'am?
However, I'm not the
one who needs your help.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Sorry for the deception,
but she really needs
to speak with you.
You weren't taking my calls.
I've decided now that
I want to stay as CEO,
and I'll be needing your help.
Why should I help you?
Anyone else would be
a better CEO than you.
Maybe, but you helped me
because my father asked you to.
Joseph, now I'm
asking you for me.
You owed my father,
yet you don't owe
me, but I'm just...
I'm sorry.
I can't.
Why?
I'm sorry.
I just can't.
Why can't you help me?
I need you to tell me
why you can't help me.
Why?
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You mean he kissed you,
and you didn't kiss him back?
Are you crazy?
Why would I kiss him back?
Toun, anyway, I
don't blame you.
It's because you are used
to dating nonsense boys.
That's why you can't
recognize a good one.
(YELLING)
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
If it's Quam, now you'll
be opening your tits.
Thanks for coming.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
(HORN HONKING)
I brought food.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
Thank you.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
What are you doing here?
EBUBE: I asked her to come.
You'd be against your father.
You are my CEO, and
you're in a crisis.
(CUTLERY RATTLING)
Uncle Chuka just
sent me an email.
Toun, the chairman has consented
to an emergency Board meeting.
I will be requesting
that you step down
and appoint me CEO
for a five year term.
We will ensure that my successor
is able to carry on the rings.
He's speaking about
Patrick, by the way,
and if you step down
you're never going
to be in a position
to come back again.
I suggest we come together
for the best interest
of the company.
It looks like he
copied the Board.
Excuse me.
Binta, you don't have
to raise your hand.
Sorry, you.
You know I'm new
to this corporate (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE),
but why are you sure
he's not the right CEO?
Because my father
didn't pick him.
Ifeanyi was a genius, right?
Yes.
Well, he chose me in
office over Uncle Chuka.
Okay, yeah, I may not be the
best person to run Audere,
but neither is he.
But the Board thinks
he's the best candidate.
Then we need to
convince them...
How?
We convince them that
investing in Ultimate Bet
was a genius move.
That seems bold.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
That's what we want.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
You want me, (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE),
to sell my company?
Yes, yes, I do.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Quam, this your
girl is crazy, no?
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(LAUGHING)
I like that.
The offer is
three billion naira.
I believe that's 10 times
what you paid three years ago.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
This girl is crazy.
Do we have a deal?
(LAUGHING)
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
QUAM: Toun.
Congrats.
You just made 300 million.
What do you mean?
I'm keeping the terms
of your agent deal, 10%.
Toun, so after all this,
you still do this for me.
Why?
Because, Quam, I truly believe
that you're the man
I think you are.
Hopefully this will give
you a chance to show it.
Toun, I don't know
how to thank you.
I so much appreciate this.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Thank you so much.
Joseph, all signed?
What happen?
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I want me to change.
We came to in a Mercedes
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
How we made it
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Can we talk?
Joseph.
I see he has
transferred his loyalty.
You didn't respond to my mail.
What did you want me to say?
So you decided to fight.
You are truly your
father's daughter.
Of course, you know that
you're not going to win.
Uncle, you don't even know
what game we are playing.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Shall we begin?
(MUMBLING)
With your permission,
Mr. Chairman,
I would like to update the Board
on the Ultimate Bet transaction.
I'm sorry, Mr. Chairman.
I thought we were here to
discuss the acting CEO's role.
I thought the
discussion of my role
is linked to Ultimate Bet.
Wouldn't the Board like
to know the latest?
I bought Ultimate Bets.
CHUKA: What?
This is the recklessness
we've been talking about.
At every turn, she
demonstrates she is not fit.
Sports betting is one of
the fastest growing businesses
in Nigeria.
They are no longer
giving out licenses.
Ultimate Bet
happens to have one.
I understand that
the previous owners
were of questionable character,
which is why I bought them out.
Using our distribution network,
I am certain that Ultimate
Bets could easily become
the leading sports betting
company in Nigeria.
So who will run it?
Look, here at Audere, we
back management teams.
The Alibies will step down.
Victor, their general
manager, will stay.
We're bringing in a Nigerian,
a general manager of
Super Bet 365 in the UK,
to be our CEO.
I will send you his profile.
What about the
ethics of this, huh?
We're enabling a
criminal organization.
Is that the right kind of
message we want to send?
The regulator's
pass the Alibies.
However, the feel they are
more (MUMBLING) due diligence,
so we decided to buy them out.
But they are criminals.
Allegedly.
However, we're no longer
in business with them.
We bought their shares in
their legitimate enterprise.
That is not illegal.
Thank you, Joseph.
Mr. Chairman, we can
proceed with the meeting.
I don't do think
we need to anymore.
We will reconvene in
two weeks as planned,
unless you are ready to
nominate the CEO right now.
We can do it right now.
Okay, then go ahead.
I nominate
Angela (SPEAKING IN
A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
What?
Are you joking?
I thought long and hard
about why my father nominated me
and not Uncle Chuka.
It's about the future,
and Uncle Chuka here,
through no fault of his own,
is 55 years old,
and as such is not the
person to lead this company
through the next 20 years.
I could be that person.
I know that now,
but I also know that
I don't want to be.
Angela is that person,
and I hope you'll support me.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Are you sure?
Almost.
I mean, all this,
this isn't me,
and I need to do me.
I just hope that,
I hope that he'd understand.
I'm sure he will.
Why?
Why not?
You do want the job, right?
Thank you.
Don't thank me, Angela.
Succeed.
So what are you
going to do now?
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Uh, yeah

If she find me here

Quam, so you're okay

She may discipline

Where's your sewing machine?

Don't ma me.
Did you give that boy

Hey, why did you give that

He needs money for his

He will pay me back at

No, no, he won't.
That boy is using you.
He's using the fact
that you're loyal,
and you're kind

He doesn't deserve you.

I made a mess of that,

From what I see,

I don't have the right

He left her a controlling
interest in the Audere Group.
No, we had a deal.
What does this mean?
Vilonia.
That's what she said,

called Audere Group.
Toun, why did you mother

I don't know.
I didn't ask.
I just left.

She's the owner
of Audere holdings?
PATRICK: Can we
challenge the will?
CHUKA: Patrick.
Look, he killed himself, dad,
which kind of argues that he
was not in his right mind.
He killed himself?
He had a terrible disease
called multiple sclerosis.
It weakens the nerves,
and his could have
led to dementia,
so he decided to
take his own life.
So he killed himself
because he was going crazy?
Your father was in
possession of his faculties,
even though tests revealed
he was degenerating...
Of course you
were gonna say that.
You're his little loyal boy.
Look, dad we...
Mr. Ifeanyi was examined by
a barrage of psychiatrists,
Mr. Patrick, who
certified his mental state
at the time the
will was drafted.
Thank you, Joseph.
It doesn't matter.
We will not be
challenging the will.
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You should have told me.

'Til the end, he
still didn't trust me.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Welcome to the family.
See you tomorrow.
What did he mean
by see you tomorrow?
Why am I the CEO of Audere?
Audere holdings owns
majority of the shares
of the Audere Group,
and so they have the rights
to appoint the next CEO
Until then, the owner
serves as the acting CEO.
This is insane.
I can't run a company.
I'm a shop girl.
Why would he do this?
He believed you could run it.
What if I don't want it?
Can't you appoint somebody else?
The next Board
meeting is in 60 days.
You can nominate
someone else then.
It can be quicker.
Please, just wait the 60 days.
Let's see how it all plays out.
Take me home, please.

Ifeanyi and I got married
while he was building Audere.
His family was rich.
They opposed the marriage,
the usual drama.
The scandal was affecting
him in business.
Everyone was a
friend of the family.
I went to his
mother to reconcile
She told me to leave him,
that she could have
the marriage annulled.
And you agreed?
I did.
I did what was best for him
because I loved him.
And me?
What was best for me?
I didn't know I
was pregnant then.
I went to tell him,
but he was already dating
his current wife, (MUMBLING).
How did he find out about me?
The JSS prize you
won when you were 12,
it made the papers.
Why did he care?
He was married.
His wife couldn't
have children.
He wanted...
Me,
and you said no.
I allowed him to
fund your education.
The scholarship, that was him.
Why?
Why not just tell me?
I could have had 11 years
with him, not one day.
You took that from me.
I thought you
would choose him.
You should have trusted me.
Think you would have
chosen to live here
instead of (MUMBLING)?
I guess we'll never
know now, will we?
Ha.
Even when it got too hard
Too hard for me to care
I forgot how to try

He said if I'm able to match it,
he can give me this machine,
so sweetheart, I don't know.
(MUMBLING) you can help me too.
I don't know.
Maybe you can help me
to talk to your mother.
My mother?
Quam.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Toun, Toun, (MUMBLING)
who have this car?
It's mine.
Look, I'll explain
everything later.
Let's meet at our place at 3:00.
It's your own?
(MUMBLING)
(SINGING)
Uh yeah, soft work
Yeah
(SINGING)
Uh yeah, soft work
Uh yeah
(SINGING)
It's the life we chose
I could have
been in chambers
50,000 (MUMBLING).
No regrets, this
one they pay pass
(MUMBLING)
Check this thing, man.
(MUMBLING)
Uncle Johnny.
(MUMBLING)
Good morning.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
How are you?
I'm fine, good morning.
Welcome, eh?
Yes, sir.
Welcome.
Quam said it's
15K to (MUMBLING),
so I've come to.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
25,000 naira now.
Why is it 25,000 naira now?
Just this morning, Quam told
me it's 15,000, Uncle Johnny.
You have a (MUMBLING) machine.
Yes, yes, I do.
(MUMBLING)
I don't get a lot
(SINGING)
And I don't pay my rent
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
The company wide email
went out this morning.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
(MUMBLING)
Welcome.
Please.
(MUMBLING)
Where are you going?
This is an executive
committee meeting.
He's not a member.
Don't worry.
You'll be fine.
We don't bite.
Speak for yourself.
Right, this is Ganiyu Osamede.
We're still training him.
Now let me introduce you to,
you don't have to
hold up your hand.
Why are all of you
okay with me as CEO?
That's a good question.
We are not like most companies.
All the people you see here
are CEOs in their own right,
running their own subsidiaries,
well, apart from
Patrick and Angela.
He runs strategy, and
she runs communications,
and as for me, I am
head of operations.
AKA adult supervision.
(LAUGHING)
Okay, so if all
of you are CEOs,
what will I be doing?
You review the performance
of their businesses.
You decide if you want
to buy more businesses.
Is it that simple?
Simple is relative.
So it doesn't really
matter if I'm bad at it?
Oh, it matters a great deal.
Your job is to
think of the future
whilst we focus on the present.
Don't worry.
It will make sense
as we go along.
Let's get into it.
Ganiyu.
Yeah.
You start.
Okay.
You are crazy.
All of you are crazy.
This is insane.
I can't run a company.
She can't run Audere.
You saw her.
She did okay and wasn't
afraid to ask questions.
You should be the
one running Audere.
That's enough, Patrick.
That's enough.
Me, I can't last
60 days though.
I have set up a meeting...
I don't think we're there yet.
You're pretty.
That works.
Can you read?
Yes, I can read.
Here are your business cards.
How did you get
my phone number?
Would you like to change
anything about the office?
No.
Okay, here is
your company laptop
and your company phone.
Your new number will start
working in 20 minutes.
You need clothes.
I will send my stylist to
meet you within the hour.
We have an
appointment at the bank.
Fine, bring her
when you're done.
I will send an address.
I'm having lunch my boyfriend.
Fine, you send an address,
and I will meet you there
and take you to the stylist.
So you're now a billionaire?
Yes, yes, she is.
Great, now that
that's out of the way,
this is your brief for tonight.
(MUMBLING)
This is a lie.
Everything in here is a lie.
I wasn't trained by my father.
You're the acting CEO of
a billion dollar company
with three listed subsidiaries.
You need to present an image
that instills confidence.
I was a salesgirl
in his super markets.
Ifeanyi was a driver
before he became CEO.
It's part of his mystique.
This is insane.
This is business
Sorry, (MUMBLING) CEO.
Toun, (MUMBLING)
are calling CEO.
Yes, my father made me CEO.
Well, technically your
shares made you CEO.
Anyone can be appointed CEO.
So that's why you're
being nice to me.
You are hoping that maybe
I'll make you the CEO.
I am being nice to you
because I'm the head of
corporate communications
in one of the biggest
companies in Nigeria.
I am being nice to you
because we employ
thousands of people
and serve millions of consumers,
and we need them to believe
that everything will be okay.
I am being nice to you
because you are my CEO,
and I am very good at my job.
(MUMBLING)
What do you need me to do?
We're going to eat our mala,
and then we're going
to get to work.
Welcome to Moments Nigeria.
Today, our guest
is Toun Odumosu.
She is the new CEO
of the Audere Group,
and interesting fact,
she is the youngest CEO
in the company's history.
(MUMBLING) and so nice
to have you on Moments.
It's nice to be here.
You look absolutely
gorgeous, by the way.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Fantastic, so
your father Ifeanyi
was really a visionary.
Do you feel you'll be able
to live up to his legacy?
The truth is
nothing prepares you
to be CEO except being CEO.
She's killing it.
TOUN: Although working
at the supermarket
did give me a feel of...
Who are you?
Her best friend.
TOUN: At the ground level,
but thankfully I have...
Say that when she'll need you.
(MUMBLING)
WOMAN: So tell me
more about your team
and how you've all have
been working together.
Okay, so at Audere Group
we have a (MUMBLING).
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(LAUGHING)
That's not your bed.
Get up.
(MUMBLING)
Go on, go to your house.
BINTA: Which house?
(SINGING)
'Cause I'm a little boring
But I'm the life
of the party
'Cause I'm kind of funny
Money don't drive me
I drive my money
(SINGING)
It's amazing.
What?
(SINGING)
Because I come in peace
(SINGING)
And that's all I need, yeah
See you tomorrow.
Everything's
not for everyone
And that is okay
You gotta take me as I am
I'll be better
But I'll never
be somebody else
Original baby
Yeah, wherever you
go, be yourself
Original bobo
You can't ever
be somebody else
Original baby
Whatever you do,
better be true
Original bobo
Oh
No matter the
pressure, be yourself
I drank a little too much
CHUKA: You did
well yesterday.
Thank you, uncle.
We're here to
approve an additional
$10 million investment
into women's fashion.
What is it for?
We're automating and
standardizing designs
for our women's lines.
Why?
Nigerian women hate
standardized fashion.
(LAUGHING)
That's what I said.
We've had a little success
with automation in the past.
And in women's fashion?
So you don't support
the investment?
It's your call.
We can't do this
without your say so.
I don't think we should do it.
Dad.
Tell (MUMBLING) to
come up with a new plan
for women's fashion.
As you wish.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(CAR ENGINES RUNNING)
Wow, you mean
your father sent you
to work here just
to understand FMCG.
That's what they are saying.
Please, please,
please customers are trying to eat here.
Am I not a customer too?
You're going to
make (MUMBLING).
She will make me pay for that.
Only because
you're letting her.
Toun, I don't work for you.
But you applied for the
food science job yourself.
And I didn't get it
'till you became CEO.
(LAUGHING)
Why do you think it has
anything to do with me?
I'm not stupid, no.
Your (MUMBLING) is here.
(MUMBLING)
I think we might
have a problem.
It is a press release
announcing you winner
of Fashion Week's Next Rated.
I don't see what
the big deal is.
You don't see what
the big deal is?
Please explain to your client
what the big deal is.
Our narrative is
that your father
prepared you for
the role of CEO.
A fashion show undercuts that.
It means you have
other interests.
But I worked for
this for years.
You want me to turn it down?
If you want to be CEO, yes.
But I'm already CEO.
Acting CEO.
The Board of Directors
still need to approve
for your position
to be permanent,
and they won't if they see you
prancing around on a runway.
This is not fair.
You're pulling out.
How can you be pulling out?
It doesn't fit
with our priorities.
I was not talking to you.
Toun, please talk to me.
It doesn't fit
with my priorities.
How can you do this to her?
We need to have
a press conference.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
It's sometimes hard to say
What we're fighting for
Sometimes you
don't want to say
Auntie Fatima,
is anything wrong?
You're fighting for
And when we're
walking in the streets
(MUMBLING)
I did.
Angie?
Did we have anything planned?
Well, now we do.
I don't feel like (MUMBLING).
(MUMBLING) and that's
all that matters.
Go on, dress up.
Let's go to the bank.
I have been invited (MUMBLING)
your boyfriend, Quam,
and I got us VIP tickets.
Go on, dress up now.
Let's go.
(MUMBLING)
See that's your tights dress.
Remember that's one that
shows your shit very.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Yeah, that's why you
don't need those (MUMBLING).
Private party.
Uh uh, (MUMBLING) now.
Private party.
(MUMBLING)
Look at his face
now. (MUMBLING)
Binta.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's not.
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
Hi, I will pay for all
your drinks tonight
if you let us have your table.
Sure?
Yes.
Wait, what are you doing?
I'm having fun.
(MUMBLING)
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Hey, hey, hey.
(MUMBLING)
Madam, the bottles are here.
Please.
I can see that.
Bring these bottles.
Put them on top of (MUMBLING).
(MUMBLING)
(MUMBLING) Bring it.
I'm sorry, sir,
but we have (MUMBLING)
ran out of this.
What's that?
We have completely sold out.
What are you talking about?
(MUMBLING)
There are no drinks.
(MUMBLING)
Go and find out who's
making noise (MUMBLING).
Sit down.
Sit down.
Let me.
I want to see.
My brother,
my brother and his girlfriend.
(MUMBLING)
They bought out the bar.
Huh?
My brother and his
girlfriend bought out the bar.
Your brother?
(MUMBLING)
Your brother buy
out my (MUMBLING).
Enjoy yourself.
This is my (MUMBLING).

What is this magic
I need that magic
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
All the fine girls
have joined in
And all the good

All the fine girls

And all the good

(SINGING)
(MUMBLING)
(CHEERING)
(MUMBLING)
pleasure to meet you.
(MUMBLING)
Okay, is that why
you were able to buy
all these (MUMBLING)?
(MUMBLING)
I want to help you,
but it's more difficult
I tried to put
(SINGING)
You have joined bad guy
You have joined secret cult
All the fine girls
have joined in
Toun, wait now, wait.
Wait for me now, Toun.
Wait.
Toun, wait now.
What?
Wait now.
You invited her, Binta.
This is your mother,
for crying out loud.
She's worried about you.
That woman is
not your business.
You help.
It's not your business.
Why have you
been avoiding her?
And it's not me you
just spoke to like that.
Okay, yes, oh, but Binta,
you shouldn't have done
it behind my back now.
You pity the woman now.
Just talk to her.
Wait, where are you going?
I'm going home.
Who is supposed to
pay for those drinks?
Take.
The pin is three,
three, one, eight.
Knock yourself out.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I forgot how to be
The kind of person
that you asked me to be
I forgot how to see
love in everything
I forgot totally
My brother say he love me
I love him too
My ma call me
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I call her
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
But my neighbor now like me
I hate him too
And ma call me stupid
I call her a fool
'Cause I forgot how to love
The way you asked me to
Remind me
Remind me how to love
To love
I don't know what I'm
supposed to do with this.
How does she just
get here and then?
I don't know.
How hard does one
feel like this?
I don't know.
You spent four
million last night.
What are you talking about?
It's all over social media,
drinking,
dancing on tables and chairs,
being rowdy,
and the coup de grace.
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Things got a
little out of hand.
Little?
You call this a little?
Are you crazy?
CHUKA: Patrick.
What?
She's disgraced
this entire company.
Angela, can we fix this?
I can try.
Try not to do any
more crazy shit.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
How much longer
must this continue?
She's Ifeanyi's choice.
Uncle Ifeanyi was crazy.
Yes, he was your brother,
but he was.
You built this company
with him for 20 years.
Are you really gonna
leave it in her hands,
let her destroy your legacy?
I can't be seen to.
She has to choose to step down.
Four million naira.
Why are you shouting?
Were you not the one that said
I should buy the whole bar?
Your boyfriend Quam was just
ordering things in here.
Champagne alone was
one million naira.
You should be
thanking me, silly.
If not for me, you would
have spent six million naira.
(MUMBLING)
Thank you.
1,000.
(MACHINE RUNNING)
(PHONE RINGING)
I'll see you later.
I have school.
Goodbye.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(MUMBLING)
Thank you for coming.
You see (SPEAKING IN A
FOREIGN LANGUAGE) over there?
She's the new rising star,
but she's not you.
Why are you showing me this?
You spent four million
naira last night.
I was celebrating.
Celebrating what?
Giving up on your dreams?
I have decided to leave a
slot open in the show for you.
Thank you, but I'm
going to have to decline.
I will leave the
slot open anyway.
Look, I've had this lecture.
I don't need another one.
(HORNS HONKING)
Your father was
right about you.
10 years ago, I was your
father's driver for a day in PH.
I drove him from the
airport into town.
There was traffic,
so we had a three
hour conversation.
At the end, he knew I was
a law graduate from uni,
(MUMBLING) couldn't
afford law school.
He paid for my law school,
sent me to Harvard
for a Master's in law
and hired me immediately.
How nice of him.
My point is
Ifyeani was gifted,
so if he thinks you can be CEO,
he's right.
I just got offered
a spot at Fashion Week
if I want it.
Then take it.
I'm sure your Uncle Chuka
will be fine as CEO.
Why does he get
to choose my life?
Why?
That someone chooses for you
doesn't make it
the wrong choice.
Why can't I just have both?
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Sometimes we
don't get to choose.
Thank you.
Angela,
can we talk?
What can I help you
with, Ms. Odumosu?
I just want to
say that I'm sorry
You've been nothing
but great to me,
and all I've done is
waste all your effort.
Not all, just most.
Can we fix it?
You want me to do a reality show
touring the
company's facilities?
That's brilliant.
By highlighting you as
CEO doing CEO things,
it will make it
difficult for them
not to approve you.
Thank you.
We're going to have to
do more with your look.
I'll do anything
you want me to do.
By the time we're
done with you,
not only are you going to
look like a genius CEO,
but everyone is going to
agree that you are one.
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Yeah, so do you
feel like a CEO yet?
Do you ever feel like CEO?
(LAUGHING)
I'm sorry.
You used those exact same words
for all your interviews.
You haven't seen
all my interviews.
Of course I have.
Why?
Well, 'cause you're my CEO.
I wanted to get to know you.
And what have you found out?
That Angela is a
damn good writer.
(LAUGHING)
I'm going to report you.
To who?
I'm CEO.
Yeah.
Oh, so sorry.
(PHONE RINGING)
Hello.
I'm coming.
I'm coming
I'm so sorry.
I have to leave.
That's fine.
We can continue later
tonight at dinner.
You can't say no.
Fine, where do I meet you?
I'll call Joseph, okay?
Alright.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
What's going on here?
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
You look like our sister.
Sure you understand,
so that's why we just
want you to join us.
Join you?
MAN: Yeah.
Join you how?
As the investment now.
You know, investment,
you invest, you know?
Investment, you think
I want to marry you?
I mean, Quam, (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Toun.
Toun, wait.
Toun.
How could you do that to me?
This is great opportunity.
So great you had to ambush me.
Toun, that was just
the light presentation.
What is the problem (MUMBLING)?
What's the problem?
Quam, you are my boyfriend,
and you're plotting against me.
These not plotting, Toun.
This is sport betting.
Do know that with 200 million
there is high probability
that you can make
two billion naira?
How much is your cut?
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
10% of the amount.
Toun, I'm not going
to take catch.
I just want to
secure my investment
so I can help to
build my future.
You know what I've
always wanted.
What about the exam?
You pass it now, and you
become an accountant.
I can't (MUMBLING).
That was our plan.
But then you
became a billionaire.
Will you date me if I'm
collecting 40,000 naira?
That is my choice, Quam.
It is my choice.
I need this, Toun.
Why is it always about
what you need, what you want?
I'm such a fool.
You know, I thought
I was more to you,
but I was wrong.
20 million naira
is nothing to you.
I know that if I can
able to secure this deal,
this might change
my life forever.
How can you say no to that?
Four years with you,
and this is what it comes to.
Toun, I beg you,
please, please.
This is not the kind of
man that I can disappoint.
You told him I'll do it.
Quam, if I do this, me
and you, we are through.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I will send you
my account details.
JOSEPH: Are you okay?
Can I invest 200 million
naira in that company?
You want to do the deal...
Just answer the question.
As CEO of Audere, your
personal investment threshold
is 50 million.
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
You have to do this
through Audere.
Make the arrangements.
Toun, I don't think this...
I didn't ask you what
you thought, Joseph.
Just do it.
As you wish, Ms. Odumosu.
(PHONE RINGING)
Yes, Mr. Osamede,
I got the address.
(HORN HONKING)
Are you still having dinner
with Osamede tonight?
Yes, I am.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(CUTLERY RATTLING)
How are you?
Good.
You look beautiful.
Thank you.
You can go.
I'll take her home.
It's okay, Joseph.
I'll be fine.
(MUMBLING)
(LIQUID POURING)
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Enjoy your drink, ma'am.
Thank you.
So what do you mean
by got off easy?
Well, for one, you
signed a good deal today,
and for 200 million you
found out your boyfriend
is an asshole.
That's easy.
So you think it's a good deal?
You do.
If not, you wouldn't
have signed the deal,
boyfriend or no boyfriend.
I just wish he'd have told me,
like why did he have
to go behind my back?
He wanted a cut.
He comes to you,
he doesn't get one.
So are you saying
what he did was right?
(LAUGHING) Of course not.
He's an asshole.
That's why you should
hang around rich people
like me who want you
and not you money.
Thank you.
So what movie are we watching?
I'm sorry?
I have this really
sweet home system
and connects in Hollywood,
so we can watch
whatever movie we want.
How about we go to
the cinema instead?
(LAUGHING) Right, what film?
Wedding Party Two.
Never heard of it.
Hold on.
What? (LAUGHING)
It's a Nollywood film?
Great, there's a
viewing at 11:00 P.M.
Shall we?
Okay, after you.
So what do you mean you
only do what matters to you?
Again, it's like at work.
You do what everyone else
wants you to do, right?
Everyone is depending on
you, looking up to you.
Tell me about it.
Exactly, but in
your private life,
you want to do what
you want to do,
you know, create
some sort of balance.
But I have friends, family.
I can't just ignore, shit.
What?
It's my friend's
birthday today,
and I told her I'll
meet her at the beach.
Oh, I'll take you there.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Okay.
Oh, she's going to kill me.
Oh my God.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(LAUGHING)
Oh, don't cut me off.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Man, I saw you
dancing like this.
I'm like, wow.
Hi, everybody.
Hi.
Hi.
(SINGING)
Binta.
Binta, I'm sorry I missed it.
I understand, man.
I know you're a very
busy person, man.
Don't be like that.
Don't be like what, man?
Tell me how you
want me to be like,
so that I'll adjust, man.
But I said I'm sorry.
Your mother said
she was sorry too.
When was the last
time you spoke to her?
Binta, don't go there.
Or what?
You'll stop being my friend?
See, you stopped being
my friend the second
you became a billionaire.
It just took me this
long to realize it.
Toun, you missed my birthday.
(SINGING)
Here, keys to my apartment
and a brand new car for you
so you don't have any issues
getting to your new job.
Here.
A letter of employment
from County Food's food
science department.
Don't worry.
It's not one of my companies,
and yes, I stopped
being your friend.
Happy birthday.
(SINGING)
(CAR ENGINE RUNNING)
I'm sorry.
That's the thing
about these people.
You can't just...
Not right now, please.
Do you want anything?
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Give you what you want
Give you what you need
Let me take you far away
Let me set you free

Give you what you want

Only one, I be traveling

BINTA: Hello.
Hello.
Hey, you better not have
finished that ice cream.
Okay,
I'll let you two talk.
Binta.
I'm sorry I missed it.
Yesterday you gave
me keys to your flat,
a car, and my dream job.
Yes, you're my best friend.
It's...
And you can take
all of that away.
Binta, I would
never do that to you.
Toun, you are changing.
if I had told you
a few weeks ago
that you stopped
talking to your mom,
would you have believed me?
Okay, so what does that mean?
We're no longer friends.
See, if you need
me to be your friend,
you can't give me keys to
your flat, a car, and a job.
I was...
I need to be me,
and this isn't me.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry too.
(LAUGHING)
Wait, I haven't forgotten
about my present.
I haven't finished talking.
Oh yeah, finish it.
Come now.
(LAUGHING)
Have you seen this?
What is it?
It's the due diligence reports
on the betting
company Toun bought.
How bad is it?
(LAUGHING) I mean, it's
owned by a local gang.
Look, the CEO is even
on trial for murder.
Have you told Toun?
Why not?
She didn't ask
for due diligence.
The legal guys
just did their job,
and the investment, well,
that's already gone through.
Dammit.
Actually, this,
this is good for us.
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(PHONE RINGING)
Yes, Joseph, I know
I'm running late.
JOSEPH: Mrs. (mumbling)
would like to see you
before you go into the office.
What?
Why?
JOSEPH: She didn't say.
I would advise that you
honor the invitation.
Okay, whatever.
I'll be there.
I don't understand.
You did approve
this deal, yes?
Did you wait for a full due
diligence report to be done?
What is a due
diligence report?
What on earth are
you teaching her?
Please answer my question
or make your point.
A due diligence report
is a thorough review.
The due diligence of
this company shows
that it's been run by criminals.
If that's what
they wanted to know,
all they had to do was ask me.
So you knew they
were criminals?
You can't invest in a company
that's run by criminals.
Why not?
Because their
money is not clean.
But we bought Shaiyu,
and the CEO of Shaiyu's
father was a governor.
Is her money clean?
It's not the same thing.
Well, maybe it is, but
it's not seen as the same.
Okay, I'll explain it to them.
I'm afraid it's
too late for that.
Chuka has already called
an emergency Board meeting.
No problem.
I'll explain it there.
I expect that he will
pressure you to resign
and hire someone else.
Oh.
He's trying to get rid of me?
Yes, and the Board
is firmly behind him.
Including you?
No, he doesn't have me.
Thank you for telling me.
I said you can't go in.
He's in a meeting.
It's alright, Nikki.
It's fine.
So what was all that bullshit,
that bullshit
about supporting me
and helping me succeed?
What are you talking about?
What are you doing?
Working out an angle
for my resignation, (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)?
Resignation,
what resignation?
Your father here called
an emergency Board meeting
to get me to resign.
Dad, is this true?
She did it to herself.
Her continued recklessness,
I mean, she backed criminals.
Even if I made a mistake,
this one is easily fixable.
In your opinion.
I can fight.
I can refuse to appoint a CEO.
Thus destroying
your father's legacy
just after his death.
No, seriously, good job.
Look, it doesn't have
to be like this, okay?
There doesn't have
to be conflict.
All you have to do is just
craft a new statement that
you don't want to be CEO.
You want me to take over.
You want to chase your own
path in fashion design.
You're debuting at the
Lagos Fashion Week.
What do you mean
Lagos Fashion Week?
I heard they kept
a spot for you.
And who told you that?
Look, Toun, it doesn't
matter who told me.
In fact, Toun?
Toun?
How long have you
been working for them?
What are you talking about?
Uncle Chuka mentioned
Lagos Fashion Week.
Who else could have told him?
What are you accusing me of?
You have been working
with them behind my back
to take this company from me.
You have been content
to play CEO on TV
and have refused
to put in the work
to move this company forward.
I warned you about the purchase,
but you shut me out.
Nobody had to conspire
against you, Toun.
You did this to yourself.
BINTA: Are they
going to bounce you?
Looks like it.
Will they take your money?
No, that one is mine to keep.
(MUMBLING)
Everything is sorted,
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
Oh, you want to become CEO.
Yes.
Until they tried
to take it from me,
I didn't realize how much
I actually want to be CEO.
Binta, I can do this.
Hey, what about fashion?
Anyway, how are you
going to remain CEO?
I don't know.
(MUMBLING)
You are right.
Thank you.
Buy something.
She's looking.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(MUMBLING)
We are here, ma'am.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
They are trying
to get me to resign.
Is that what you
want to talk about?
We haven't spoken
in over a month,
and this is what you say to me?
Fine,
I'll start.
I was selfish.
I gave up everything for him.
I didn't see why I had
to give you up too.
I am sorry.
You were right.
Mommy, I've been a
billionaire for what?
Six weeks, and my life
is completely crazy.
I can barely handle it at 23.
At 12?
Only God knows what
would have happened.
I'm sorry.
Thank you for being
my everything.
Oh,
but Mommy, this could be
anybody in this picture.
Okay, fine, it's me,
but why are you following
him on Instagram?
When did you even
get on Instagram?
When you stopped
talking to me.
I have to get information
about you somehow.
That is why I'm
not shouting on you
for having a man in your house,
so you guys had
to get (MUMBLING).
(LAUGHING)
I don't know.
Maybe.
Oh my God.
Whoa, that is the most
hideous thing I have ever seen.
Be nice.
I saved for months to buy it.
Well, that doesn't
speak to your judgment.
Should I be worried, Ms. CEO?
Shut up.
Do you know I sewed my
way into Fashion Week
on that machine?
I even got in,
like there's a spot
waiting for me right now
if I want it.
You used to be a designer
before all of this?
Well, I was working on it.
Want to work on
something else?
Are you okay?
Yes, yes, Mommy,
but I have to go.
Oh, oh, oh, okay.
I have to go.
Okay.
Sorry.
Okay, user interface,
the colors, what don't
you like about the colors?
Can we talk in private?
Sure, can you
give me 10 minutes?
I need to run feedback
with the guys.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
(GRUNTING)
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You asshole, you
plotted against me.
Plot is strong word.
I was trying to help you.
Trying to help me by
helping them take my job.
I thought you
didn't want the job.
Maybe you should
have spoken to me
before you stabbed
me in the back.
Toun,
I'm sorry.
EBUBE: Thank you
for coming, Joseph.
How may I help you, ma'am?
However, I'm not the
one who needs your help.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Sorry for the deception,
but she really needs
to speak with you.
You weren't taking my calls.
I've decided now that
I want to stay as CEO,
and I'll be needing your help.
Why should I help you?
Anyone else would be
a better CEO than you.
Maybe, but you helped me
because my father asked you to.
Joseph, now I'm
asking you for me.
You owed my father,
yet you don't owe
me, but I'm just...
I'm sorry.
I can't.
Why?
I'm sorry.
I just can't.
Why can't you help me?
I need you to tell me
why you can't help me.
Why?
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You mean he kissed you,
and you didn't kiss him back?
Are you crazy?
Why would I kiss him back?
Toun, anyway, I
don't blame you.
It's because you are used
to dating nonsense boys.
That's why you can't
recognize a good one.
(YELLING)
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
If it's Quam, now you'll
be opening your tits.
Thanks for coming.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
(HORN HONKING)
I brought food.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
Thank you.
(DOORBELL RINGING)
What are you doing here?
EBUBE: I asked her to come.
You'd be against your father.
You are my CEO, and
you're in a crisis.
(CUTLERY RATTLING)
Uncle Chuka just
sent me an email.
Toun, the chairman has consented
to an emergency Board meeting.
I will be requesting
that you step down
and appoint me CEO
for a five year term.
We will ensure that my successor
is able to carry on the rings.
He's speaking about
Patrick, by the way,
and if you step down
you're never going
to be in a position
to come back again.
I suggest we come together
for the best interest
of the company.
It looks like he
copied the Board.
Excuse me.
Binta, you don't have
to raise your hand.
Sorry, you.
You know I'm new
to this corporate (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE),
but why are you sure
he's not the right CEO?
Because my father
didn't pick him.
Ifeanyi was a genius, right?
Yes.
Well, he chose me in
office over Uncle Chuka.
Okay, yeah, I may not be the
best person to run Audere,
but neither is he.
But the Board thinks
he's the best candidate.
Then we need to
convince them...
How?
We convince them that
investing in Ultimate Bet
was a genius move.
That seems bold.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
That's what we want.
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
You want me, (SPEAKING
IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE),
to sell my company?
Yes, yes, I do.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Quam, this your
girl is crazy, no?
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(LAUGHING)
I like that.
The offer is
three billion naira.
I believe that's 10 times
what you paid three years ago.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
This girl is crazy.
Do we have a deal?
(LAUGHING)
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(INSECTS CHIRPING)
QUAM: Toun.
Congrats.
You just made 300 million.
What do you mean?
I'm keeping the terms
of your agent deal, 10%.
Toun, so after all this,
you still do this for me.
Why?
Because, Quam, I truly believe
that you're the man
I think you are.
Hopefully this will give
you a chance to show it.
Toun, I don't know
how to thank you.
I so much appreciate this.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Thank you so much.
Joseph, all signed?
What happen?
(SPEAKING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I want me to change.
We came to in a Mercedes
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
How we made it
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
(DRAMATIC INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Can we talk?
Joseph.
I see he has
transferred his loyalty.
You didn't respond to my mail.
What did you want me to say?
So you decided to fight.
You are truly your
father's daughter.
Of course, you know that
you're not going to win.
Uncle, you don't even know
what game we are playing.
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Shall we begin?
(MUMBLING)
With your permission,
Mr. Chairman,
I would like to update the Board
on the Ultimate Bet transaction.
I'm sorry, Mr. Chairman.
I thought we were here to
discuss the acting CEO's role.
I thought the
discussion of my role
is linked to Ultimate Bet.
Wouldn't the Board like
to know the latest?
I bought Ultimate Bets.
CHUKA: What?
This is the recklessness
we've been talking about.
At every turn, she
demonstrates she is not fit.
Sports betting is one of
the fastest growing businesses
in Nigeria.
They are no longer
giving out licenses.
Ultimate Bet
happens to have one.
I understand that
the previous owners
were of questionable character,
which is why I bought them out.
Using our distribution network,
I am certain that Ultimate
Bets could easily become
the leading sports betting
company in Nigeria.
So who will run it?
Look, here at Audere, we
back management teams.
The Alibies will step down.
Victor, their general
manager, will stay.
We're bringing in a Nigerian,
a general manager of
Super Bet 365 in the UK,
to be our CEO.
I will send you his profile.
What about the
ethics of this, huh?
We're enabling a
criminal organization.
Is that the right kind of
message we want to send?
The regulator's
pass the Alibies.
However, the feel they are
more (MUMBLING) due diligence,
so we decided to buy them out.
But they are criminals.
Allegedly.
However, we're no longer
in business with them.
We bought their shares in
their legitimate enterprise.
That is not illegal.
Thank you, Joseph.
Mr. Chairman, we can
proceed with the meeting.
I don't do think
we need to anymore.
We will reconvene in
two weeks as planned,
unless you are ready to
nominate the CEO right now.
We can do it right now.
Okay, then go ahead.
I nominate
Angela (SPEAKING IN
A FOREIGN LANGUAGE).
What?
Are you joking?
I thought long and hard
about why my father nominated me
and not Uncle Chuka.
It's about the future,
and Uncle Chuka here,
through no fault of his own,
is 55 years old,
and as such is not the
person to lead this company
through the next 20 years.
I could be that person.
I know that now,
but I also know that
I don't want to be.
Angela is that person,
and I hope you'll support me.
(GENTLE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Are you sure?
Almost.
I mean, all this,
this isn't me,
and I need to do me.
I just hope that,
I hope that he'd understand.
I'm sure he will.
Why?
Why not?
You do want the job, right?
Thank you.
Don't thank me, Angela.
Succeed.
So what are you
going to do now?
(UPBEAT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Uh, yeah
Bad guys in New Guinea
Uh, I told you I'm
the life of the party
Why your guys
(SINGING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
I got a shit load
of that legal tender
I'm thinking how we
met is not coincidental
I can make your life
just a little better
Have you ever been to Lagos
Have you been with
a guy from my city
Hakuna matata
I like your

pressure, be yourself.

I need that magic
QUAM: Thank you.
