  In this remarkable story, Adunni, the main character, depicts ambition fuelled with a burning desire to succeed despite all odds. Tales of this type still abound in Lagos, and they are portrayed in the media daily. Adunni is hailed as the poor girl with a rich mind, "Sherlock Holmes," who never stops asking intelligent questions, a child-bride, and a strong-willed girl who grew up fast due to the circumstance her parents put her through. However, she had the guts to pursue the life she wanted. - An education by any means necessary.  Adunni finally got her groove back after reading such an easy book, I could relate to the characters there. the harsh and despicable reality of Lagos till date. I would recommend this book to my friends and would love to see it turned into a film.

Parents Beware: Ritualists Are Now Targeting High Schools

Ritualists Now Targeting High Schools
The extend at which people will go just to get rich is alarmingly bewildering. It has been reported that Nigeria's underworld men have now upped the ante in their ritualistic practices - by making secondary schools and innocent children a target. Parents be extra vigilant and don't be fooled by external facades of a  smooth talker - If you suspect something ain't right, trust your guts.

Today, these two men came to a school in alakuko area of Lagos well dressed. The bigger one was pleading with the principal in her office for his wife in labour which was obliged with 1000 Naira. They dubiously dropped 200 Naira on the floor without anyone suspecting. But a student came to the office later and was about picking the money when the principal screamed! They took the money out to burn it but it refused to burn.

The money disappeared. Meanwhile, those ritualists on to their next victims, another secondary school within the vicinity and about to apply the same trick. They were traced and caught.

The police took them away later. But for the fear that they might be let off the hook, they have been paraded for all to see.They are ritualists! Please let's be all vigilant.
