"As viewers of the series stay glued to their television sets to savour the weekly tonic, they will be confronted with the unpleasant consequences of the gossip mills, false alarm, tale bearing and rumour mongering," the sponsor of the social satire added.

Kanayo, (Professor Johnbull)‎,  ‎the episode as explained by Globacom  "will no doubt jab our conscience as we  examine ourselves to see if at one time or the other, we have caused unnecessary acrimony in the society because of rumour peddling or inaccurate report of incidents."
