Star actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo plays Professor Johnbull as usual while other regulars such as Samson (Ogus Baba), Flash (Stephen Odimgbe), Etuk (Bishop Imeh), Jumoke as played by Bidemi Kosoko and Elizabeth, the equally moralistic daughter of Professor Johnbull, acted by Queen Nwokoye will equally thrill viewers of the episode.
