  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.

News that the scarcity will end nationwide on Wednesday as announced by Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu has not been fulfilled. The pressure is on the president to perform, the people are eager to see the impact of his change manifesto he once promised.
