"The Governor" is the riveting tale of Angela Ochello, the Deputy Governor of Savannah State, who with no governorship ambitions finds herself suddenly entangled in a web of political intrigue after the untimely death of the incumbent Governor.

Set in Savannah, a coastal state in Western Africa established in 1964 and extremely rich in iron ore, "The Governor" will take viewers through the shadowy often gruesome corridors of power.

Written by Yinka Ogun, Debo Oluwatuminu and Tunde Babalola and directed by Ema Edosio, the lead character ‘Angela Ochello’ is played by British-Nigerian actress Caroline Chikezie.

The upcoming series also stars Bimbo Manuel, Baaj Adebule, Kachi Nnochiri, and Simi Adejumo among others.
