The film starred Odunlade Adekola as Gbadebo, a local newspaper vendor suffering from Entitlement syndrome. He is unsatisfied with his life and considers his present status and a lot of the people he interacts with daily to be less than him. He blames his lack of ambition and success that pervades his environment, but the reality is that he is a lazy man that prefers to spend his days complaining and putting down the honest efforts of those around him.
Gbadebo somehow lands a position as Morayo's driver, a young wealthy lady, played by Adunni Ade. However, his high level of indiscipline makes it impossible for him to work for long in this new job before getting into some serious trouble. However, he finally made it, when he met his wealthy biological father.[11]
