© Copyright 2025 Set against the backdrop of the historic Sokoto Caliphate and the vibrant city of Abuja. Maryam Ahmed vowed never to fall for an Abuja boy again-until she met Fahad M. Sultan. He swept her off her feet, and she believed he felt the same. But love quickly turns into a labyrinth of lies, betrayal, and dangerous secrets-secrets that should have remained buried. At the center of it all is Fahad The Fifth, a man with more skeletons in his cupboard than Maryam ever imagined. As she uncovers the truth, she faces an impossible choice: will love blind her to the deception, or will she risk everything to expose the secrets-secrets that entangle the daughters of a Nigerian presidential candidate? His Sarauniya, Or Not is an electrifying tale of passion, power, and deceit. If you're not ready for the thrill of this ride, unbuckle your seatbelt now.

A few minutes into the walk, I heard footsteps shuffling behind me. I tensed up and halted in my tracks. My heart began to pound violently in my chest. I felt too afraid to even do anything. I stayed glued to my spot, but that didn't stop the footsteps from approaching. Mustering all of the courage left in me, I spun around and to my utmost horror, two men - more like thugs were standing just few inches away from me. Ya Allah, please protect me! I don't want to die like this. I spun back around and started walking, my pace increasing rapidly. "Hey! Where the f*** do you think you're going, bit**" One of the men slurred. By the tone of his voice, I could tell he was tipsy or high. The rate of my fear intensified. MANAL ❤ ©2019

Have you ever loved something to the extent that you could lie blatantly about it? In Jalilah's case, she had. She had loved ballet since she was a little girl, but being born from a northern Nigerian family, she had never got to be the ballerina she had always dreamed of. Did she let go of that dream? No, because she would lie for the sake of ballet, she would lie about being married so her mother could let her leave! Yazeed had never been choked up in a mess like this, but he had no choice but to stay mute and watch the drama unfold before his eyes. How would you feel to have a girl lie to her mother about you being her husband right before your eyes? They left, and she got what she had always been dreaming of. She knew she would love him someday, but she had never seen that day to be this close. What would she do? After knowing that their days together were numbered, she had to find another lie to tell her mother for them to find their separate ways. It got to the point that she couldn't pretend anymore, and she asked him the question. "Can I be your Mrs?" Yazeed had heard that question more than he cared to count, but she had never gotten an answer from him. Would he say yes and make her his lawful Mrs without her past life poking up? Or he would say no and live with the regret of not having her in his life? Which would be a topping to his already grieving soul.
