Plots(1)
Politics are already strained between English imperialists and the West African government of Kinjanja when womanizing British diplomat Morgan Leafy is caught in bed with Celia, wife of corrupt Kinjanjan presidential candidate Sam Adekunle. As punishment, Leafy is forced into bribing an official who has voted down a project that stands to make Adekunle very rich. Leafy thinks he's gotten off easy... until he learns the lone holdout is none other than Kinjanja's own brick wall of integrity, Dr. Alex Murray. Meanwhile, Leafy must also contend with his absurdly stuffy boss Fanshawe, Fanshawe's lusty wife and their luscious, too friendly daughter! (official distributor synopsis)
