The official synopsis reads: "Members of the Progressive Tailor’s Club gather for a meeting to elect their new leader. However, when a longstanding, trusted executive is eliminated for corruption, it comes down to a choice between the old, the new and the ridiculous."

A teaser for the movie debuted in July, a few weeks after principal photography wrapped up in Lagos.
