Program Note
Unabashed ladies’ man Chuks—also called Terminator—revels in female attention, and is convinced that once he’s had a woman, she’s his forever. It’s Okafor’s Law. He explains this to his baffled friends when they discover he’s seduced an old girlfriend on the eve of her engagement to another man. Curious, those same friends challenge that notion and demand Chuks bed three former girlfriends in three weeks. He accepts. Ify, Tomi and Ejiro become targets for his charms, but things are very different for the three women than they were back in school. From the director-star of the Nollywood hit Wives on Strike comes another fun, risqué comedy that gently pokes at some of Nigeria’s most hot button topics. In Okafor’s Law, Omoni Oboli confronts and skewers the games men and women play with each other in the pursuit of sex and romance. Hidden truths, wounded pride, and awkward revelations give Oboli’s sharply drawn characters depth, and allow the standout cast to show off their nimble handling of the material.
