Description
When the call to action becomes too much to bear, some people choose to leave. For army officer Chike Ameobi, this decision marks a turning point. As he travels towards Lagos, he finds himself at the helm of a new group of individuals seeking a better life. Their arrival coincides with a major political scandal, one that threatens to upend the city's fragile balance.
The education minister, Chief Sandayo, has gone missing, and with him, millions of dollars in government funds. As the situation unfolds, Chike and his companions must navigate the complexities of their new reality. With the help of Ahmed Bakare, editor of the struggling Nigerian Journal, they uncover a web of deceit that goes far beyond a simple case of corruption.
This gripping novel explores the intricate relationships between power, identity, and belonging in modern-day Nigeria. With its richly drawn characters and nuanced exploration of the human condition, Welcome to Lagos is a thought-provoking and unflinching portrayal of life in the city.
