In this hilarious TV sitcom pilot, director, Femi Agbayewa takes a light hearted look at what it means to marry well. Emeka Nwandu (played by HBO The Wire’s Gbenga Akinnagbe) thinks he has his « American Dream » all figured out. He is in line for a promotion and his girlfriend, Jumoke, has agreed to marry him. Everything is going perfect until Jumoke’s father refuses to let her marry outside their tribe and Emeka’s boss puts a zany condition on the new promotion. A condition that will jeopardize the whole wedding if it does ever happen. As if these pressures weren’t enough, Emeka also has a big secret he’s been keeping from his bride to be. Brooklyn Shakara is currently airing on VOX in the UK (Sky 218).
