Mama Blessing, a struggling buka road-side restaurant owner, is promised riches by the diviner Mallam Idi if she acquires a gold-plated android boy. This-a seemingly impossible task given the fortune it will cost-sets Mama Blessing down a path that will irrevocably change her, and her family's, life.
