Lapite, the King-elect of Jogbo, has decided to enrich himself on ascending the throne. He eliminates all opposition by sending hired killers or by harassing them into exile.

His rival, Adebomi, is killed and Ayangalu, the official drummer, has escaped into exile. He takes a new wife and embarks on a massive exploitation of the enormous resources of forest trees.

In desperation, the youths march on the palace and seize the royal crown, which by tradition must not leave the palace.

Lapite seeks military help by engaging the mercenary Lagata, a retired military officer, who however eliminates him and takes over his kingdom.
