Synopsis
Chukwu (Clems Ohameze) was up for a promotion and had plans to fly to London on business. The night before his trip his colleague coaxed him into sleeping with a prostitute. Of all the call girls flaunting their assets Chukwu chose Clementina (Queen Nwokoye). Clem was a pretty woman but she had poor grammar and no class. Chukwu wasn’t one to sleep with prostitutes so he got drunk to enable himself to do so.
On the following morning, Chukwu woke up to a phone call from his colleague and realized that he overslept. To his surprise, Clem was long gone and so were his money, wallet, and passport. Of course, he missed the flight and his colleague offered to cover for him at work and reported him ill. This gave him time to track down his belongings and hopefully make it to London.
Chukwu returned to the road where he picked up Clementina but she was nowhere to be found. After leaving his business card with her fellow prostitutes and even paying one of them for information about her whereabouts, he finally caught up with her. After more money demands, threats and violence, it turned out that Chukwu’s passport was lost. The end? Not quite.
Chukwu picked up Clem for her services again but this time he had an ulterior motive. He planned on using her for the night without paying her but she saw the night as an opportunity to steal more money from him. Their hidden agendas clashed and led to a big fight. Chukwu felt that he deserved some free nookie after all she put him through while Clem refused to leave his house until she was paid.
As the story progressed, the two became acquainted, one thing led to another, and the next thing we know their strange relationship blossomed into something special. Chukwu took her off the streets and moved her into his home. He decided to take care of her and offered her a better life.
The sequel titled “My Cocoa Butter” continued the rocky courtship and Clem’s past became a constant nudge. Everywhere they went together they ran into random men that Clem slept with or stole from.
In addition to her soiled reputation, Chukwu was embarrassed by Clem’s pigeon dialect and lack of table manners. But everyone has a past and Chukwu’s resurfaced when he remembered that his ex-fiancé cheated on him. This recollection presented a cloud over his relationship with Clem as he questioned whether he could trust a past prostitute.
