Synopsis

Jimmy is one unlucky boy who often gets caught unawares in compromising situations. But he believes himself always innocent and blames others for his calamities. From his best friend Chiggah to his Grandfather to other boys in school. But we always love Jimmy as he goes about his adventures for he entertains us thoroughly. This time round, Jimmy's love for the avocado fruit puts him in deep trouble, first with the area chief in whose farm he is caught, and then with his teachers who are all out to protect their relationship with the chief. Jimmy's punishment? Writing a song for the visiting President Xi of China. Luckily, Jimmy's antics end up creating quite a name for him and he becomes quite a hero.
