*Chapter 1*

A family of six is waiting for Mr.

Esquire to arrive. As they wait,
Bint describes her interaction
with her nosy social studies
instructor, Mallam Salihu, who
frequently asks questions
unrelated to the topic of
discussion, giving the impression
that he knows a little bit more
about every subject.

Bint describes how she really

handled a similar situation,
leaving the teacher amazed by
the students’ applause and
laughter.
Just as Omar cheerfully
announces his acceptance to
study law at Ahmadu Bello
University, Ummi enters the
debate, showing her seamless
pride in her daughter and Bint’s
clever solution to problems.
Omar brags about his
accomplishment and takes
delight in just conquering exam
obstacles and a few other
admissions processes during his
admissions process, while his
family comes together to
celebrate his victory.

Ummi attempts to educate her

son about how admittance to a
university might change his life,
seeing how ignorant he is. Ummi
shares with her kids how her
admission transformed her.

*Chapter Two*
Ummi was admitted to the
university twenty years ago, and
she married her husband before
she could even begin her
registration. Ummi informs them
about the freedom and carefree
lifestyle that university students
lead, the difficulty of telling
instructors from students
because
females are sometimes dressed
nearly completely in skimpy
attire, and the necessity for
certain faculties to pay attention
to dress regulations. Ummi goes
on to talk about her interactions
with Salma, a chic young
woman. A young man waiting in
line questions Salma and starts a
conversation with her, but Salma
keeps criticizing and generalizing
her thoughts on lectures.

Not only does Salma paint

lecturers and police officers as
bribable types, but she also
makes a big show of being able
to get the lecturer to agree to
anything for as little as two or
three thousand naira. To Salma’s
surprise and the surprise of
everyone else in the line, the
young man Salma has been
chatting with is actually the
lecturer in charge of the
registration process. After
completing her
departmental registration, Ummi
is told to go to the office of the
HOD. She thinks it’s a bit
awkward and improper that the
HOD is making such sweet small
talk with Ummi.

Ummi thinks the HOD is making

a pass at her. Unbelievably, she
puts up with this until she gets
her matriculation number, at
which point she gets upset and
storms out of the office.

When Ummi gets home, she tells

her husband about her encounter
at the HOD’s office, but she is
shocked to hear about her
husband and Dr. Sam John’s
friendship and rapport.

*Chapter 3*
Ummi narrates the tale of Talle,
the youngster who is known as
“the quiet one.” After many years
of childlessness, Talle is born,
and his mother passes away as
a result.

“The quiet one” was a suitable

title for him because he was
always quiet as a child and
became much more so after the
passing of his father and
stepmother.

The villagers think Talle is a

wonderful person who can’t hurt
them. After Talle confided in Zaki
that he was in need of money, he
suggested kidnapping a child
and holding a ransom. When the
two carry out their plan, Talle
confines the boy to his home.

Talle goes to the market to get

his
groceries, but he gets twice as
much as usual. His bigger desire
for goods soon becomes
noticeable to the market woman,
who informs the district head of
the problem.

Talle was being questioned by

the district chief when police
stormed the palace and took
Talle into custody on suspicion of
kidnapping and extortion. In the
end, Talle and Zaki receive jail
sentences of a few years.

*Chapter 4*
An additional description of
Salma’s magnificence and
arrogance is provided in this
chapter. Salma visits the level
coordinator, Dr. Debo, to get her
paperwork
signed. Regretfully, Dr. Debo
drifts away from his years of
discipline and starts making
moves towards Salma.

Before leaving the office, Salma

criticizes him even more and
ignores his attempt with a
snobbish attitude. Dabo is left
feeling guilty and regretfully
prays that he may be cleared of
the consequences of what he
has done.

Salma checks herself into a room

with three other females after
completing her hostel
registration. Salma is first
repulsed by her roommates, but
over time, they develop a close
bond and closeness that they
see as sisterhood.

One faithful evening, Habib and

his driver, Labaran, offer Salma a
trip in a Mercedes Benz. She
slips in, aware that it’s risky, and
she arrogantly plans a way to
turn down Habib’s request to go
on a date in the event that he
does make a proposal.

Having to decline a man who

rides a Benz is Salma’s way of
upgrading her standard and
getting recognition and respect
from her colleagues and the
entire university.

*Chapter 5*

This chapter reveals that Salma

offers Habib Tomiwa’s mobile
number instead of hers, and
without Habib’s knowledge, he
phones Tomiwa to ask her out on
a date. Tomiwa chooses to go on
a blind date because she is
curious about Habib, but she
finally reveals the change in
phone numbers.
*Chapter 6*

Moral philosophy is particularly

challenging for Salma. But she
gets ready by rehearsing past
questions and providing offhand
responses. Unfortunately, Salma
doesn’t know the answers to any
of the exam questions because
she spent the entire night
studying none of the topics in
question. She decides to cheat
on the exam. As she copies the
questions into her response
booklet, Kola replies to some of
the questions in a note. She is
unfortunately discovered by a
female lecturer. Salma is
escorted to the HOD’s office and
forced to fill out the Examination
Malpractice (EMAL) form. He
forwards her matter to the Ethics
and Exams Committee for
additional handling. After that,
Kola and
Salma are expelled.

*Chapter 7*

Salma goes to Habib in hopes of

using his political connections to
help her influence the committee.
Habib offers to include Dr. Debo,
but she rejects and suggests
bribery because of her previous
interactions with the lecturer.

Salma agrees to repay Habib in

kind if he gives her money to
bribe the head of the
Examination and Ethics
Committee (EMEC).

Salma is reluctant to accept this

offer because of her affair with
Labaran, and she considers it
unfair to have an affair with her
friend’s man. Salma quickly
accepts his request, but
unhappily, she
transfers the funds to Dr. Kabir,
who serves as the EMEC
chairman.

She soon finds out she has been

deceived by Dr. Kabir, who was
neither the chairman nor a
member of the committee. She is
demoralized and breaks down.

*Chapter 8*

The actual identity of Mohammed

Kabir, a university-employed
laboratory technician, is revealed
in this chapter. Since high
school, he has gone by the
moniker “Doctor” and is always
called “Dr. Kabir.”

When Labaran learns that the

gambler has been manipulating
Salma, she alerts Habib and
advises that Zaki be contacted to
take
care of the matter. Since Zaki
failed in his initial attempt to
kidnap Alhaji Adamu’s son, the
Honourable Habib is dubious
about engaging Zaki. Habib
followed Labaran’s advice and
got in touch with Zaki to follow
Kabir.

Kabir is seen visiting a gaming

parlor. Kabir wins the game at
the casino and walks away to
save his winnings. Unfortunately,
thugs who want to get their
hands on Kabir’s winnings are
pursuing him. While Kabir is
being attacked by the goons,
Zaki catches up with him.
As the thugs run, Zaki hits them
and takes charge of the situation.
After that, he focuses on Kabir,
gets the money, and leaves him
hurt.

Ummi also shares with her kids

how Salma
corrected her immoral behavior.
After her father passes away,
Salma turns into a respectable
and serious person, and Ummi
accepts Salma as a friend due to
her seriousness.

*Chapter 9*

Ummi, too, shares Salim’s bitter

smartphone experience. Salim
tells Lawal the truth about a
woman he met on the internet.
Following several photos, texts,
and affectionate conversations,
Salim meets Natasha on her day
off.

He sets out to meet Natasha late

at night, his unconscious warning
him that she is playing him.
Salim is enthralled by her
attractiveness as soon as she
arrives and sits with him in the
front seat of his SUV.
Eventually, gunmen attack him
and attempt to take his
belongings from him. Fortunately,
he gets away from this, but not
before he falls in love with
another woman he meets on
social media.

He begs Lawal to go with him

this time to prevent a similar
situation. Lawal says no and
leaves to visit the rumoredly
attractive girl. Salim is
disappointed and walks away,
meeting an unattractive female
instead.

When Daddy arrives, the kids

may be seen expressing their
appreciation for all the stories
Ummi has told them.
