Okay bro. Now!
This guy is going to ruin
this thing for me man.
Anyway...
Melina.
I...
From the first day that I...
Come on man, this is not rocket science.
Okay, just take a deep breath.
Take a deep breath.
Okay.
Melina, baby I...
Come on. Fuck!
Fuck! Come on...
Okay...
Efosa, you need to calm down.
Oh man...
You are the lion.
You are the conqueror man.
You are the emperor.
You know, you are the ladies man.
You know...
- Hello!
- Effy darling.
You didn't tell me the name of your...
Hello?
Efosa.
Hello...
Hello...
Finding a decent house in this Lagos,
is the ghetto.
- I mean, look at this?
- Come in, there is no probem.
You don't have anything to worry about.
Though it looks rough now, we're committed
to finishing it with perfection.
Look at... This is your bedroom.
It is comfortable and massive.
You need to...
Madam, as I was saying,
the landlord dislikes women.
He is a Misogynist...
You get what I am trying to say right?
Infact where is your husband?
So, just pay and move in.
Very simple and spacious.
This is the room.
You can sleep on the bed while
I sleep on the floor
and you pay half of the rent.
Now, I'm just going to focus
on my presentation.
Okay, minor inconvenience.
It really can't get worse than this.
You have torn my...
This is not gist lover,
we don't buy stale gists.
Don't call this line again.
Bye!
Good morning.
- Have they finished the meeting?
- Just go back home.
We are done with the meeting.
We are done with our presentations.
Yoyo!
Because you were late, Walt
publishing has pulled their offer.
You deserve to die!
No madam!
This is Ezinne Okoli, C.E.O Buzzwatch.
A reputable media outfit
in the heart of Lagos.
We are on a verge of a really good
international deal.
So everyone is trying their best not to
piss her off but...
But somehow I always do.
A mad man jumped on me.
So when he jumped on me,
I started saying "Blood of Jesus"
Blood of Jesus, Blood of Jesus!
But...
The Blood of Jesus
did not answer me.
So the mad man slapped me.
Then he beat me up then
he tore my trouser.
I was preparing for our presentation so I
was... I was saying it, I was reciting it...
I was reciting it because
I wanted to be very ready.
So... I was not paying attention to
the road, so that's how...
My leg hit a stone, and then it
bent, and then I fell down.
A trailer fell at CMS...
Hi! Hello... Alhaji.
Good afternoon.
Greetings!
Alhaji, I was actually
on my way to you but...
A trailer fell at CMS.
So I just... The traffic was so bad.
I... had to turn back.
I am so sorry.
Ugh! Really!
Tell me, tell me! Was your wife's
lover also around?
Great! Alhaji were you
able to get pictures?
Aha! Perfect, send it, send it to us.
Thank you.
I am so sorry Alhaji.
The ladies of these days,
are not very wifely.
They are not. I am so...
Me? I am not very wifely...
No! No...
Thank you so much.
Alright, I will be expecting the pictures.
Alright, thank you.
You did say we are not a gossip...
Oh bloody hell, I know exactly what I said!
If this company is going to survive.
We need to go where
no one is expecting news.
- You know?
- Yes! Yes!
We need to go into
investigative journalism.
How long has she been working here?
Eight to Nine days ma.
I just started but I
love this job so much...
Don't you ever.
Don't you ever interrupt me again.
Sorry ma.
That's it!
It's enough!
I have to get a house close to work
and I have to get it now.
I am... I could help you with the headline.
- If you need...
- That's okay, I can do it.
That's Ancel Peters, he is so annoying.
Scammers!
Six hundred thousand naira
room in Ikoyi?
And a mansion! Scammers!
Hey!
Can I use your system to
print out something?
Mine is malfunctioning
for some reason.
- Yeah, sure.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Okay.
Who's here?
- Do you need any help?
- Oh no, thank you I will be done in a minute.
And this?
This is my Femi...
A tall glass of hot chocolate.
Keep your head still.
You know your hair is natural.
So it will be painful.
This is Tawa, my flat mate and
trenches BFF.
She just gets me.
Come and loosen her hair, once you are
done I'll make her a new one myself.
My sister!
Wow! Yoyo!
You ate four beans cake?
I did not... I ate just two.
The remaining is in the bag.
Or should I finish up the other two?
You know I have not eaten since morning.
You have not eaten since morning [Sarcasm].
What's this?
Good day sir.
Ummm...
- Thank you sir.
- Come in.
Wow!
This place is really big.
Five bedrooms, four parlors,
two dinning rooms, two kitchens...
An office, a cinema...
A game room and...
Staff quarters.
Will I be living here alone or will
I have neighbours?
No...
The family relocated.
Yeah...
Wow!
Oh my God!
Jesus!
Look at this place.
Oh my God...
- Sir.
- Yes.
Sir, please I just to...
I just want to ask you something.
- Sir, please.
- Yeah.
If you are using this place for cyber
fraud, I will walk away quietly.
So someone else can come and
rent the house. I won't report you.
This place can not be
six hundred thousand naira.
24 hours light.
One bedroom, two toilets,
one living room, one kitchen...
ample packing space.
Jesus Christ of Nazareth!
I prophesy unto my life,
in the name of Jesus.
Father God you said the violent...
I am violent in Jesus name.
I will take this place by force,
this is my destiny.
This is my destiny, I proclaim
unto my life in the name of Jesus.
Jesus! My husband...
Please wait for me!
Stupid man! Cursed man!
Mr. Lawanson!
Mr. Lawanson!
- Sir?
- Yeah?
This is my house, sir this is my place.
It's perfect.
Mr. Lawanson, it's
close to my office.
I will take care of the place.
Mr. Lawanson, I know landlords do not like
renting their houses to single ladies...
I am different.
I am very descent. I am a
descent girl, I am a christian.
Sir, please I will take care of
this house for you. Please!
When I told the owners of this house
about you, they were very excited.
Really?
Ummm, okay...
So you will pay now.
- Now?
- Yes, now.
- Sir?
- Yeah.
Let me beg for something sir.
You... are very lucky. No agreement fee,
no caution fee.
Really?
Only an agent fee of
fifty thousand naira.
So... Sir can I just beg
you for something else.
Sir, please I have the rent,
I have six hundred thousand.
- Now?
- But the fifty thousand naira...
I don't have it at the moment.
But I will get it, I can get it,
but just not now.
So you have the six hundred
thousand naira now?
Yes.
And then the fifty thousand
naira later? Okay.
- Yes sir.
- Okay, that's alright.
You mean this whole place is going for
six hundred and fifty thousand naira?
Yeah!
Including the Piano?
My Father who pampers,
my Father who blesses me.
- He is a miracle working God.
- Everybody say.
- He is a miracle working God.
- He is the alpha.
He is the alpha and omega.
He is a miracle working God.
Yoyo, where are you?
I am in my house.
My house! Tawa, six hundred and
fifty thousand naira.
What God can not do does not exist.
It does not exist.
Yoyo, it's a scam. It's scam! Did you
see anyone living in that environment?
You will be kidnapped, and your big
breasts will be used for ritual.
Don't... It's not true.
I consulted a reputable real estate
company.
Tawa I am not stupid.
You are a very senseless girl.
Honestly, you are senseless.
Thank God you have not paid, right?
Tawa let me call you back.
That's the problem with people
fromtrenches, they have poverty mentality.
You are moving to your destiny...
He is the alpha and omega,
he is a miracle working God.
God, thank you.

I am an Investigative journalist,
so...
That's a lot of work in the field.
A lot of travelling and stuff.
I travel all around the world.
You know, it doesn't really
give me time.
That's why I am looking for a man that...
Is loving and caring and supports
my dreams.
Your profile said that you...
You are looking for a relationship.
Yes... I am a very nice person,
I love to make new friends.
Wow!
I am a nice guy, easy going...
I don't look for trouble.
I just take things step by step.
I always mind my business.
Put your head here.
Tear my dress... Remove my dress.
So tomorrow, I will be going back abroad.
Wow... You'd be leaving for
abroad tomorrow?
Yes, I have a project I am yet to finish.
Yes...
I am just looking for... You know,
a hotel that I can pass the night.
Somewhere close to the airport.
So you mean you don't have where
to pass the night?
Yes, I don't have anywhere.
Wow!
Wow!
Wait, you mean you stay
here all by yourself?
Easy...
I'll be right back.
Ahhh! Mr. Lawanson God will bless you.
You are a good man.
Hey!
Wow!
I wanted to make sure that
everything is perfect for you.
- Perfect?
- Yes.
This is more than perfect.
Wait a minute, are you a princess?
I am...
If you would be my prince.
Come here.
I will be your prince.
Just give me one minute.
Okay...
I'll be right back.
Yeah, take your time.
Am I... Or did I arrange this room myself?
Joey...
Joey...
Joey!
Joey!
I'm here!
I just wanted to change into
something a little more comfortable.
Not like I was not comfortable before,
I just said...
Sexy.
Wow!
I know what you are trying to do.
It's called role play.
I really like it.
You know right?
Yes, I do...
Oh my God.
Joey, Joey wait...
That's not how it is done Joey.
- It's not like that.
- Shut up!
It's supposed to be softer...
Where is the safe?
Tell me where the money is.
Jesus!
Tell me!
Where is the money? Are you mad?
There's no money!
Where's the money?
Come, who's in this house...
Hey! What's happening...
I will stab you...
My balls!
Lock! Lock! Lock! Lock now...
Hey God! God...
Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus!
Joey! Joey what's happening out there?
I command you in the name of
Jesus Christ.
God!
Hi.
Jesus!
Joey!
Joey! Joey! I am in here.
- Hello... Hi.
- Please come and help me.
Are you seriously trying to reach out to
the same guy who
literally just tried to rob you?
Shut up! Keep quiet!
You are not real.
You are just a voice inside my head
because I am drunk, keep quiet!
This is my house.
You're the intruder, you broke in.
So who are you?
Why are you naked?
Oh... I am naked.
Do you like what you see?
No.
Well...
- I don't like it.
- I am sorry to break it to you but...
I'm fresh off the market,
you broke in a little too late.
Well, I mean I'll be fresh off
the market when Melina gets...
Wait...
What time is it? Where is my
wrist watch and where is my phone?
Is Melina here yet?
Who is that?
Who are you and how did
you get in here?
What are you here for?
Please sir.
Please don't kill me.
Please! Please!
I don't understand.
Why would I want to kill you?
I will go... I will not even stay.
I will never ever come back.
I will not even tell anybody.
It is fine. It's okay.
- You will never see me again.
- Relax, okay?
I am not going to kill you and...
I believe that I am not
going to see you again.
Okay! Miss erm...?
Yoyo.
- Yoyo?
- Yes.
Great. I'm Efosa Igbinovia,
it's nice to meet you.
Okay.
- So here's the thing Miss Yoyo.
- Yes
I have a proposal planned today
for my fiancee.
So I'm going to let you out.
But it's top secret so...
You owe me, okay?
I'm not telling anyone.
Okay, I'm going to let you out.
Thank you.
Thank you sir!
Thank you sir.
Oga!
Shouldn't we wake her up?
Yeah, I think we should.
I think we should but...
I also think we shouldn't
because I read somewhere that it's
dangerous to wake up a sleeping person
because it might lead to disorientation.
That's when you wake up a sleep walker.
A sleeping person.
A sleep walker.
Guys!
Exactly what I said.
Ma, I can explain.
Ma, I saw a naked man
in my mirror, in my house.
Ma remember you told me to leave
the trenches. I did just that.
- But the man appeared to me.
- What she's describing is a ghost.
Yes! It's a ghost that's what I saw.
Ancel, come with me.
And you.
Clear your desk, I never
want to see you in this office again.
I am not lying Ancel.
What is this trash?
You should know better,
we don't dabble into this...
occultic, voodoo, crap!
Like what the fuck is
horoscopic compatibility?
No ma it's not what you think...
It's actually a way that we can explore...
Call security.
Ma, please I'm sorry.
I saw a ghost.
Ma there's a ghost in my house.
He is there.
He talked to me.
- Wow!
- He talked to me!
He told me his name.
He told me his name. I can tell you.
His name is something, something...
Igbova.
Gogosa.
Igogbosa.
- Igbova.
- Oh my God!
Ma please. This
job is not a joke to me.
This is my dream job.
You are my role model.
Ma please I want you to be
proud of me.
I am not lying.
Say that again.
Again ma.
Sorry.
I meant the name.
Iko... Ikosagov...
- What!
- Ikosagbovana.
Ikosa Igbova.
Ikosa Imonova
Efosa?
Ma, that's the name!
That's the name!
I told you I can't forget it.
That's the name ma.
Efosa Igbinovia!
Yes ma'am! He's the one.
Where did you say this
your new house is?
Ma! It's...
I can't remember.
- Speak up!
- Ma it's...
De vine... Devo de vam.
Casa de Novia!
- Ma, that's the place.
- The one on new Milverton road?
Yes, that's it!
Ma, you are a genius!
Then get me something.
Ma?
I still don't believe you.
Go back to the house, get me something.
A picture, signature, something.
Just get me something!
- So I should go back?
- Go! Get out.
The ghost is still there.
- Get... Just go!
- Okay ma.
Thank you ma.
But if I die...
Can I go ma?
You still want to be an
investigative journalist right?
- Yeah, yes ma.
- Awesome.
Follow her!
I have a feeling she is
working for our competition.
She's a scorpio. We don't...
Okay ma. Right on it.
It's just a picture. You'd
just go inside and you will
take the picture and you
will just come outside.
You will just come outside Yoyo.
Hey! I can't believe
you are back.
Hello...
Wait! Wait! Wait! Hey!
What are you doing here?
To help you.
Help me, for what reason?
- I don't know
- You think I'm crazy right?
- No, no, no, no.
- I don't need your help.
I don't need anybody's help,
I have all my evidence.
Right here! I have it here.
You all think I am mad.
You all think Yoyo is crazy.
Everybody is laughing at Yoyo.
- No, no, no, no.
- See it! What?
- What is it?
- There's nothing...
- There.
- What now...
What's all this...
What is this... Oh God!
Yoyo!
I've wasted my life savings.
I have lost my job all in one week.
Easy...
- Ancel!
- Yeah.
Leave me alone! Don't touch me!
Yoyo, think about this.
If humans are energy,
it's possible that the sub atomic particles can
exist outside of the time space continuum.
- You...
- You are wicked! You are wicked.
Something wants to kill me
and you are here talking nonsense.
Talking rubbish.
Yoyo, you said you saw him from
a mirror right?
Dear God, won't you help me?
Ancel!
Ancel!
Ancel!
Go away.
Go away!
Ancel wait...
Ancel!
Wow!
Do you live here all by yourself?
I don't live here and
I don't have any money.
Excuse me? What
do you mean she lives here?
This is my house.
Can't you hear him?
He is talking.
Who's this nerd?
He's talking.
Can't you hear him Ancel?
Oh God.
Your boyfriend looks
like he's about to pass out.
He's not my boyfriend.
Well, he's looking
at your boobs.
Can't you dress up?
Don't you have clothes?
What? Is he here?
- He's there!
- Naked?
Only you can talk to him and hear him.
Such a wonderful gift.
I don't think it will work.
Shouldn't you get dressed?
Hey!
Hey! I am right here.
Mr lover boy, hey I need
your help with something.
I can't find my brother and
I can't find my phone.
For some reason,
I can't leave this house.
Hey! Hey... Mr loverboy,
I am speaking to you, come on!
Oh good, you are back.
Oh my God, what are you wearing?
So?
First, I don't think Yoyo is
working for any competition.
What are you doing?
- Why do you keep doing that?
- Leave me alone!
Don't talk to me, shut up.
You know you can't shut me up right.
- You are not real.
- I am.
- I bind you in the name of Jesus.
- Oh!
She's talking to someone
in the mirror.
Show me.
It came back at you girl.
Hey, both of you in my office now!
Go, your boyfriend is calling you.
Bye.
Back at you.
Double fingers.
You look ridiculous.
Go with your boyfriend.
Okay, bye!
So what is so special about this guy?
How can you not know Efosa Alex
Igbinovia? The 'Efizzy' of Lagos.
Heir to the Novia empire.
A successful business man.
Sport Enthusiast.
A philanthropist.
The most eligible bachelor in Lagos.
A very good bad boy...
I'm sorry.
Eventually after he lost his
father, he became a recluse,
and he was eventually declared missing.
Guys! Yesterday made it exactly three years
since he varnished.
The last news about him was by 360 Nigeria.
Written by Olufemi Adewale.
Oh wow!
I hit a dead end, okay?
Of course.
So, if he is a ghost,
that means he's like dead, not missing.
- What if he was killed?
- Hmmm.
Well, well, well...
Look at that!
You've managed to save your job.
Then get me something.
Just get me something!
[Chorus] Leave, leave, spirit
of darkness leave immediately.
[Chorus] Leave, leave, spirit of darkness!
Pleaseleave...
- I thought you said things will fly all around.
- Yes.
And then you will see
him inside the mirror.
- Yoyo!
- Yes.
Are you sure this is not a mental issue?
[Chorus] Leave, leave, spirit of darkness!
Leave immediately.
Women! God has answered your prayers.
Let us go.
Thank you sir.
Thank you.
Sir, where are you going?
He is still in there...
- He's lying, he's still there.
- Yoyo!
Come on... See! See him..
Yoyo!
I don't like this. I don't like this.
Come on please, let's leave right now.
[Chorus] Leave, leave, spirit of darkness
leave immediately.
Hey God! He's still here.
How dare you bring charlatans
into my house?
Please it's not like that Efosa,
you don't understand.
Understand?
What have you done to Melina?
What have you done to Melina?
She's supposed to be here.
Calm down!
What is happening to me.
- Please calm down.
- Where's Melina?
Don't tell me to calm down!
Where's my phone? Where is my phone?
Where is...
Efosa!
Where's my phone?
Efosa you are dead!
You're dead.
There's no Melina coming.
- Yes... You are very funny...
- But I am not joking.
I am not joking.
Don't you know that's the reason why you
cannot leave this house?
What rubbish are you saying?
What do you mean I am dead?
What, do you mean I am a ghost?
I don't exist?
No...
Yes!
- No!
- Yes!
I am healthy.
Look at me, I'm fit.
I'm sexy.
I am proposing to my girlfriend today.
Efosa that was three years ago.
Efosa! Efosa!
Efosa!
Please pick up your phone my friend.
First, it was my dad.
Now me.
Esosa will be so lost without me.
He can't handle the company by himself.
- Who is Esosa?
- That's my brother.
We were planning the proposal together.
Sorry.
The kids under my charity... Fuck!
Melina...
Was Melina at my burial?
From what I know,
your body was not buried.
Your body was never found, so...
There was no burial.
What!
You are lost.
You are officially a missing person.
So let me get this straight.
No one knows I am dead?
There are rumors but I don't know.
I am a Journalist.
I work for a company called Buzzwatch.com
We are trying to find out what
happened to you.
You work for a gossip blog and you were
sent here for a scoop.
- That's what's happening here.
- No...
That's not it... That's not why I am here!
I don't understand, why would anyone want to
kill me? I am such a sweet boy, you know.
Well, rumour has it that you were
a womanizer.
I am not calling you a player.
That's not...
- I was a player, yes!
- It's true.
But then I met Melina.
The day I met Melina,
I knew she was the one.
You can have the painting if you want it,
I own the place.
Would you like to go on a date with me?
- She asked you out?
- Yes, she did.
That's one of the things
I loved about her.
A woman who knew what
she wanted and how to get it.
My dad had just died, I was
overwhelmed, lost, you know...
The women were not doing it
anymore for me, but Melina...
Melina was intentional.
I have never felt so sane in
my entire life. I fell in love.
You know life is so short
to worry about what ifs.
I should have proposed to Melina
the first day I set my eyes on her.
Now I am gone, lost for all eternity.
But you are not lost, don't say that.
I had so much I wanted to do.
Ah! Mum, mummy...
If I could just see her one
more time. You know...
And Melina... Do you think that she'd
have forgotten about me by now?
I don't think anybody has forgotten
about you.
How can they forgot about you?
The "Effizy of Lagos".
So tell me, do you have a
special someone in your life?
Yes, I actually have.
Let me guess... The Nerd?
- You know the things about boys like that is...
- Who do you mean?
Ancel?
Please don't insult me.
Don't berate me please.
Okay, I am sorry...
Who is the special guy?
His name is Femi.
He works in my office.
He is so fine!
But, he doesn't like me like that.
I don't even think he knows I exist.
He doesn't even see me at all.
I think I know why he doesn't see you.
Why?
- You dress boring.
- What!
On a serious note,
I think your choice of colors...
Your skin tone works better
with yellow.
- What?
- Or maybe purple.
And let's not even get
started with the hair.
- What's wrong with my hair?
- It's a...
You need to add some spice.
You know some colors, maybe some curls.
But most importantly,
if you truly want something,
you need to go for it.
The worst you can get is a no.
The world is not going to come
to an end.
Are you telling me to ask Femi out?
Exactly, you are a very smart woman.
Sorry I won't...
It won't work, I will never do it.
I will never ask him out.
So he will say no to me...
I will just die on the spot.
Can I ask you for a favour?
Can you please not publish Melina's name?
She's been through so much already.
She didn't even want the fame.
I don't think it would be fair to her.
No problem.
I won't write her name.
- I kind of have another favour to ask.
- What else do you want?
Can you help me find her?
I just want to see her one more time.
Please?
Okay.
Do you have a number or an address?
- Something I can use in finding her.
- Of course I do.
Stop playing. That's my number one girl.
Where's your phone?
Let's start with the last three
months of your life, where were you?
Nobody could find you, nobody
knew anything about you.
What happened?
So, the day after my dad's funeral,
I flew to Tahiti to decompress.
Wow... You are lucky... 'Tahiti'.
- Oh, one more thing.
- Thank you, what is it?
- May I?
- Uhumm.
Why are you concentrating on that ar...
- It's perfect
- Wow! I like it.
Okay, let me be on my way.
- Yoyo.
- Yeah.
What is it?
Thank you.
For what?
For not running away.
Let's go and find your fiance.
Good morning... Hey!
- Good morning.
- How is it going? I love your outfit.
Thank you.
By the way, big congrats on
your article.
You mean it's out already?
Yeah, I published it
like ten minutes ago.
Wow! Two thousand five
hundred views already?
Exactly!
What's up...
Almost a hundred new clicks per second
that's got to be a new record.
And also look, the comment
session is going crazy.
People have commented about seven hundred
and fifty times
- and they have one question.
- What is the question?
Who is the fiance?
What?
The fiance?
Oh...
- Femi
- Yes?
Would you like to go
out on a date with me?
Maybe like tomorrow...
For like drinks or food.
Sure, why not?
Yeah.
Wow!
We're currently reporting live
from outside the home
of the allegedly late Efosa Alex Igbinovia.
Right now, myself and the rest of Nigeria
are eager to know what
- what exactly is going on.
- Are you the fucking writer right?
Don't fucking play with me, I swear to God.
I said, where the fuck is the maggot
that wrote the stupid story?
I know you are all as confused as I am.
You have a stupid face...
You are all playing with me right?
You all think I'm a joke!
You all think I am fucking joke, right?
Who is this?
That's Esosa, the brother.
He didn't tell me he had a twin.
But you wrote that he had a brother.
But I didn't know he was a twin.
Stupid face!
Are you the fucking writer?
Are you the fucking writer?
Don't fucking touch me,
you bitch!
Please...
Am not here to play with you all.
Do you know what
my family has been through?
Do you know what I have been through?
Don't just sit down and write shits to
destroy people's lives.
That's Esosa but he was a bit of a looser,
so nobody paid him any attention.
Yeah I know you.
You're the fucker that won't stop asking
questions right?
I swear I going to bring
this place to the ground.
I swear to God, I'll bring
this fucking place to the ground.
Three fucking years men!
Three years.
Hoping and waiting for
my brother to come back.
And you all just declared him dead.
For what, fucking clicks?
What kind of nonsense are you all doing?
I said I saw your brother,
I saw him.
In your former house.
What house?
The house you were both planning
a proposal.
Efosa told you all of these?
Yes! No! Not him, it was his ghost.
- His ghost? I knew you had a stupid face!
- Yes.
- I am not stupid, my face is not stupid.
- I mean look at you.
I know it sounds crazy and it's hard to
believe but it's true, I'm not lying.
I don't lie. He said...
He's worried about you.
I saw him!
Okay... Miss stupid face.
My face is not stupid.
What did my brother say
about me?
He said...
He knows that you had a really tough time
with him being away and that he misses you.
I told you.
I don't know what kind of scam you
are all playing.
- You are not going to get a penny from me.
- It's not a scam.
I swear to God!
- What's all this commotion?
- I'm telling you.
Mr. Igbinovia.
I will have to ask you to
leave this premises please.
You will have to ask me to leave?
How about you make me, bitch!
Rumor peddling low life.
Don't fucking touch me!
Try me!
I swear I'll fuck you up!
Take down that fucking post!
Or I swear to God I'm going
to beat you blue,
I'll beat you black, I'll beat you
colours you have never seen in your life!
And then I'll sue this stupid
fucking gossip blog!
- It's not a gossip blog sir.
- Fucking low lives.
- Don't spoil our door.
- We are real journalists.
He was just shouting and screaming.
As if... I understand.
Hey.
- Hey.
- Yes.
- Are you okay?
- No...
I'm still shaking I don't
even know what happened.
- Thank you for being so brave out there Femi.
- I'm serious, are you okay?
- You protected me.
- Okay.
You know we can talk about
it on our date tonight.
Is that okay?
- It's... It's okay.
- Okay.
Please hold me because
I am still shaky.
I don't want to fall down.
Sorry...
I'm traumatized.
You know when you guys got employed, I...
I saw you as the least
likely to have a career.
But look at you now,
I've just... I've just been lucky.
I also didn't peg you as much of a drinker
but I think that is your...
Is that your sixth glass?
Oh... No, I don't drink.
I'm just celebrating.
You know what I think?
I think that you...
Are a very bad girl...
with a lot of secrets.
- Tell me...
- I'm a good girl.
Hey!
You know who Efosa Igbinovia was going to
propose to, don't you?
No, I don't know... I don't even know her,
I don't know.
So, do you want to... Do you want to
tell me who's been...
Feeding you info?
It's the ghost.
The ghost talks to me, I told you.
Don't you believe the ghost talks to me?
Listen...
We are...
We are getting to know each other right?
You can trust me.
Holy shit!
- Remove it.
- Give me a second...
- Just wait. Give me a second.
- Remove it.
Let me remove my clothes.
Yoyo! Yoyo!
Yoyo!
Hi.
Hello.
I thought you were serious about
getting your job back?
Yes... Mrs Isia, I'm serious please.
I strongly believe that Efosa
has some... a journal or something.
And that's where she is getting all her
information from. I intend to find it.
Who's the secret fiance?
Who killed him?
Get me something tangible by
tomorrow or the deal is off.
Who's there?
No! No! No!
Please...
No...
Awusubilahi!
Yoyo... What's wrong with you?
What did you drink?
Femi!
Baby!
That is Femi's car.
Help...
Femi!
Femi!
Efosa!
Efosa!
Efosa!
Yes Yoyo.
What did you do to Femi?
Oh that's Femi?
Yes, that's Femi.
We went out on a date...
I was drinking like a
drunkard until I passed out.
Oh I have ruined everything.
I ruined everything.
- You have ruined everything!
- Yoyo.
- What.
- You need to chill okay.
What was he doing here?
Why did he leave you?
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but...
That guy... No, he is not for you.
- Efosa!
- Yes.
I know what's going on here.
Are you in love with me or something?
Because I am flattered.
Like...
But my heart is taken.
You know..
Is that why you chased him away?
You should have just told me,
we would have talked.
Ahhh right?
You know what?
- What?
- Yoyo.
- Yes.
- Exactly.
I've fallen in love with you... Jesus!
- Look!
- What?
I strongly believe that Efosa has
a journal or something...
And that's where she's getting
all her information from.
I intend to find it.
He was using me.
You're very welcome Yoyo.
- I thought he liked me?
- Sorry.
Efosa!
Efosa what is it?
What's wrong with you?
Mel...
Efosa... Talk!
Meli... It's... Did you...
Call... Call... Melina?
Wait... No! I am sorry I didn't call her.
I will call her now.
I'm calling her now.
See...
- Did... You... Call...
- Efosa please.
Efosa!
Efosa!
Look, I just called she did not pick up.
Where did you go?
Hello ladies and gentlemen,
we have just been sued.
- What do you have for me?
- I'm still working on it ma.
You need to move faster.
Ma, there's a woman here to see you.
She says her name is Mrs. Igbinovia.
Where are all these stories about my
son coming from?
Ma, he told me.
I saw him in your old house.
Well it's not really him I saw,
I saw his ghost.
He die...
Take me to him.
Efosa!
Efosa! Come out!
I'm not joking.
Efosa, come out of that mirror!
Do you want them to think I'm mad.
Your mother is outside.
I haven't stepped foot in
here since my husband died.
It's the same.
Yet so different.
I'm sure it must have been so much
fun growing up in a place like this.
Ahhh, Alex!
He threw the grandest parties in here.
Lots of people...
Would eat.
And Efosa...
He used to slide down the railings
of the stairs.
Almost gave me a heart attack
everytime.
Is he here?
That's where I see him.
You will have to go to the mirror,
that's where he appears.
It's your space, lead the way.
Efosa, if you don't come out of
that mirror, I will slap you.
I will slap you. Come
out, come out.
Is there a problem?
No ma.
Okay...
He's coming ma, let me just...
Let me just call him.
Efosa!
He will soon be here, that's how we do it.
One more time and he will be here.
Efosa!
Efosa!
Ma...
Yesterday.
Yesterday he...
That was the first song he learnt.
Eh... Efosa!
Efosa!
Mum!
Ma, can you hear him?
He's talking to you.
My God!
I can feel him.
Tell her it is not her fault.
Ma...
He wants me to tell you
it's not your fault.
Ask her if she remembers when she bought
me the limited edition spiderman comic?
I think at that time it cost about
five thousand dollars.
Five thousand what? Because of
book? What kind of people are you?
I remember that.
Dad was so livid.
He loved it. He felt so sad when
his brother burnt it.
He burnt the book worth
five thousand dollars?
We are talking about Esosa, right?
Mum!
Mum!
Efosa...
Mummy.
I have missed you so much.
Things have not been the same without you.
Without the both of you.
- I miss you.
- I'm so sorry mum.
Melina reminds me so much of you.
You would love her.
Please visit her.
Let her know it's okay.
I will.
I would find out who did this to you.
I love you so much mum.
Efosa, I love you with every fibre in me.
Yo stupid face! Get your shit and
get the fuck out of my house!
Right now!
I will not go anywhere. This is my house,
I have paid my rent.
Yes.
- You are speaking with so much confidence right?
- Get out!
I swear, you are going to end up
behind bars bitch.
Bastard!
Oh I am.
Well the house has been
sold a long time ago.
It's going to be demolished
next week bitch.
So get your shits and leave
right now!
You will do no such thing.
Hey mama!
When did you get in?
Shame on you Esosa!
For three years, your
brother has been missing.
You have not lifted a finger to find him.
These people are trying to help.
What do you do?
Sue and threaten to demolish a house
you didn't have the right to sell?
Well it's my house too mama.
I don't know how you managed to convince the board
to sell your father's shares in his company.
But I will be damned if I
allow you sell this house.
Mum, you didn't think I
was smart enough to do that right?
It's not what Alex wanted.
And you know Efosa would have rather died
than watch his father's sweat disappear.
Well Efosa is dead now mama.
What?
And if you weren't such a coward,
why did you leave?
- Am I not your son too?
- Esosa!
What mama?
Even now he is dead, you
still fucking choose him.
Ever since we were kids, you made
it clear he was better than me.
Ah... Efosa the straight A student,
Efosa the athlete,
Efosa this, Efosa that!
He can sing, he can dance, he can paint,
he can draw,
he can fucking walk on water!
Don't say the word
'fucking' to your mother.
Well...
Would you look at that now mama?
He is dead now!
Esosa!
Stop fucking wasting your time on
dillusions, I am all you've got left!
Can you stop saying
'fucking' to your mother?
But you know what?
I don't give a fuck about
you or anything you say.
Or anything that you think.
And this house, this is my house!
And I will do with it
whatever I fucking please.
You want to know how I did it?
Sell all of dad's fucking shares?
That was easy. I just
had to show up as him.
What?
You are all the fucking dumb ones.
What have you done?
You stupid face! You get your shit
out of my fucking house.
Bitch!
Get out!
I will fuck you up okay.
I will fuck you up!
Go and sit down.
I will fuck you up!
Welcome ma.
It's nice to finally meet you.
I didn't... When did you get back into
the country ma?
I booked a flight as soon as I
heard about the latest development.
It's been three years of pain.
Sorry, have a seat.
Thank you.
Every one talks about how hard it is
to lose a child.
But many don't understand the pains
of a missing child.
It's a different type of hell.
It has been hard.
I know, I know.
We will find out
who did this to him.
We will find out what happened.
Come.
Hi.
Oh!
I thought everyone left already.
I forgot my key.
Okay.
Aren't you leaving?
Efosa does not remember how he died.
His mother is putting pressure on me.
Mrs. Ezinne is asking me repeatedly.
The fans, they are angry.
They have started posting
nasty comments on...
They are calling us clout chasers.
And I don't know how I am
going to figure this thing out.
What makes matters worse
that something is up with Efosa.
Yesterday, he just vanished.
He disappeared from my eye.
What if I go back there and
he's not there?
What if he does not come back?
What if he comes back but he
never remembers?
What if I can never figure this
thing out?
My career will just die.
Before it even
had a chance to... Please.
Vanished?
As in crossing over?
Look, Ancel I don't know.
I don't know... I don't even know.
I don't even know...
First it was trenches,
they said I should leave the
trenches. I have left the trenches,
I didn't ask for all these troubles.
I didn't ask for this nonsense.
If, he's crossing over, it could mean
his unfinished business is almost over.
Maybe he is stuck in the house,
because his body is stuck in the house.
Look Ancel, I just need to
see him again.
That's what will fix all of this.
I just need to talk to him again.
Ancel open the door.
The door is jammed.
Jammed how?
Hey! I can't believe I am here begging
a ghost to speak me.
I guess he was waiting for his mum
to say goodbye.
- Is that fuel?
- Yes.
It's smells like it...
But I didn't get to say goodbye to him...
I didn't get to say goodbye
to him.
Efosa is not the kind of person I would
have ever known in real life.
He wouldn't have even looked at
someone like me.
He was so rich,
so handsome,
so naked...
Always naked.
But we became friends.
I miss him.
Efosa!
Stop playing, come out.
Where are you?
Just show me a sign you are still here,
just answer me please.
Efosa...
Efosa!
You are here!
It wasn't me!
- Wow Esosa!
- Please men...
- I don't understand, why would you kill me?
- I'm so fucking sorry men...
- I am your brother... I was your brother!
- They would have fucking blamed me.
Please, What could I have done.
Efosa please...
Efosa!
I swear to God. Efosa! Please, Please...
- Why did you kill me!
- Bro... I didn't mean to.
You are the last.
Damn bro!
You are proposing?
I mean, I had to hear it
from mum.
About that bro, I am sorry.
I was going to tell you,
but it's not my fault, you
are never available Esosa.
It's calm, it's alright, it's cool.
So what are you
going to do about the company?
It's not like you want to run it.
I mean the board doesn't know us like that.
You know what I mean.
What do you mean by that?
We are not selling dad's
legacy Esosa.
And look, I don't have any
more money to give you.
Calm down bro.
That's not what I am saying.
So what are you saying?
Look, Esosa I do not have the energy
for your drama today.
Not today. Okay?
Maybe if you were more
responsible and less reckless.
It's calm, it's calm, it's alright bro.
I'm sorry.
- So, you've fired all the house staff?
- I did.
My wife. Well, wife to
be wants to do the hiring.
And you didn't think to
tell me before hand?
It's my house too Efosa!
Hey, hey! Bro, you are never available,
how would I have told you?
I'm just fucking with you bro. So...
How can I be of help?
Ahhh... Well I need you to
help out with the lights.
The trick is, they all have to
come on at the same time.
Yeah, I got you.
Let's rehearse.
I got you!
Efosa!
Okay.
Okay bro, now!
Yo Efosa, that was perfect right?
Efosa?
The fuck?
Yo!
Yo!
Efosa?
Efosa?
Fuck!
Fuck men! Fuck!
Fuck! Efosa!
Efosa? Hey, Hey, Hey, Fuck!
- Where is the body?
- Fuck! Fuck!
- Stop saying fuck. What did you do with the body?
- Fuck! Fuck!
- I didn't mean to...
- What did you do with the body?
Fuck! Fuck!
I buried you...
I buried you in the backyard men...
Please! Please! Please! Please!
Efosa! Please we beg you.
Efosa please!
Jesus Christ!
Just get me out of here men...
Thanks to you and also the efforts
of everyone here.
I am happy to announce that,
we have officially been bought by
Walt Publishing.
Wow!
Esosa drove Efosa's car,
and abandoned it on Lekki Epe express way.
All in the bid to sell the story that his
brother was missing.
Esosa Igbinovia lived a troubled life,
- From drug abuse to numerous stint behind bars.
- My friend.
You didn't explain to me.
You didn't give me details on the house.
I didn't know it was this serious.
What if the ghost or younger brother
had killed you.
You know, you should go to church.
I should help you call the prophet.
You should be in church for
about seven days praising God.
It is worth giving thanks.
- Tawa.
- Yes.
Something is not right honestly.
What are you saying?
The entire story makes no sense.
The story makes no sense.
Listen, men are wicked...
Are you... My sister.
May be his younger brother was interested
in the fian...
Fiance...
In all of this, let's be thankful.
Do you get me?
No life was lost, no one got missing.
Yoyo!
- Tawa!
- Yoyo!
- Tawa! My sister.
- It is well.
I think Efosa is still in the house?
Something is just not right?
- Well that's if.
- Will you follow me there?
- Do you want to go back there?
- Please...
Will you follow me?
Thank you.
Keep quiet...
Do you want us to be caught?
Quickly, quickly, come in.
Efosa!
Efosa!
Yoyo, his body has been
moved so he's finally free.
You helped him. If not for you,
he would still be stuck in this house.
Ancel, will you follow me
to the funeral?
My friend doesn't want to go, she is
too afraid and I don't want to go alone.
It's okay if you don't want
to go, I understand.
I will go with you.
Ancel thank you...
For everything.
I'm... I'm having the time
of my life.
Let's go.
Melina...
Ancel?
Is everything okay?
I see someone took my advice.
Nice dress.
Efosa!
I'm sorry, I need your boyfriend's body.
He's not my boyfrien...
Melina! Melina!
I'm so glad you came.
Do I know you?
It's me, Efosa.
What sort of sick joke is that?
Remember the gallery?
When we met.
You told me you could feel the artist pain.
His desire to break free.
I'm not sure steve went through any pain
whatsoever, when he was making this.
Who?
Steve. Sorry,
Steve Kukoyi Rhodes, he is the artist.
Oh... You know him?
I'm Efosa.
Efosa Alex Igbinovia.
So you are the Efosa?
Melina.
It's nice to meet you Melina.
I love you Melly...
And I didn't plan to leave
this way.
You bastard!
You bastard, you took my sister
away from me. You killed her!
Your sister? I didn't
know you had a sister.
You ruined your life. Do you understand
that? You have ruined your life!
You are going to take out
that bastard.
Do you get me?
You are going to take out that bastard
because I cannot be in this house...
taking care of you, and be taking care
of a baby for some stupid idiotic boy.
You are going to take that child out,
today!
Today! Do you hear me? Do you
hear me? Because you can't do this?
You are not going to ruin your life!
I didn't know I got anyone
pregnant. Why kill me?
You knew you got my sister
pregnant!
- And you killed her!
- No!
You pushed her to her death because
she made a mistake.
- No!
- Yes!
No!
It's okay... Let's go...
I'm sorry, but we tried everything
we could. We couldn't save her.
Would you like to go on
a date with me?
I got you your favourite.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
I will see you later tonight?
Of course, I will see you
tonight. Okay.
Efosa!
Efosa... That was perfect right?
And I will kill you again and
again and again!
I will kill you!
Efosa only cared about himself.
He... He deserved to die!
You deserved to die!
Efosa! Efosa!
Efosa! Efosa!
Ancel...
You're amazing Yoyo,
and you deserve the best.
Thank you, you too are amazing.
- Efosa.
- Yoyo.
Ancel.
Yoyo.
Don't mess this up, he really likes you.
I'm going to miss you.
Efosa finally found some peace.
I am really going to miss him.
Yoyo...
Yes?
Hi...
Will you go out with me?
Let's find your glasses first.
I know you are all wondering,
if Ancel and I end up together?
Well...
