"Sarauniya!" I said almost loudly but not enough for my friend Bilal to hear, "who is she?" "Aaliyah. She's the late Alhaji Mujib's daughter. " Bilal said seeming uninterested with the topic. "Ina gidan su?" I asked, sounding a bit like a crazy stalker. "Ka kamu da ciwon so ko?" He asked as a smile spreads across his face, "They live in Asokoro district. Remember Aunty Shamsiyya? The place isn't far from your habibty's home too." "Ok, thank you. Allah ya maka albarka." "Let me know when to be expecting an invitation card." Hamza said while trying to stifle his laughter but fails woefully and I smack him on his arm as payback, joining him to laugh too.

When Mohammed Dangote and Mariya Dantata met, the questions people asked were if and when they'd ever get together. From stolen glances and hidden smiles to nervous confessions and bashful laughter, theirs was a love story that bloomed in the most beautiful but heart-wrenching ways; a love that gave as much as it took. Years later, their son - Nasir Mohammed Dangote - is finding love of his own in the eyes of Atika Dambatta. Intrigued and drawn towards her by a force he can't quite explain, Nasir decides to follow his heart. Their first proper meeting in her parents' living room makes two things clear to him; that he has found the woman he wants to marry, and he's never been readier to settle down, as long as she's the woman by his side. Together, they build a family with the faith that life would only get better. However, just as life had different plans for Mohammed and Mariya, fate has much in store for Nasir and Atika, and they would have to learn that sometimes life throws the most unplanned events at you; not to necessarily break you, but to make you so much better than you would have ever dreamed. (P.S. This is a love story spread across generations. It is just not the straightforward one you are expecting)

A food packaging company magnate's daughter and a scandal-riddled governor seeking re-election are tied together forever when they meet at a convention by chance and decide to be latched together for life. They soon quickly realize though, that there are forces beyond them wishing they fail and be defeated, which prompts them into more action. Will they fall in love or die trying?

After the tragic loss of her parents, fifteen-year-old SADIYA is sent to live with her uncle's family in a town far from everything she's ever known. There she meets her two cousins. ABDULLAH, the effortlessly charming and carefree one who fills every room with laughter, and YAHAYA, the brilliant but brooding older brother who always seems annoyed by her presence. Caught between a boy who makes her heart race and one who makes it ache, Sadiya must find her place in a home that's not quite hers, while trying not to lose herself or her heart in the process.

She had stayed unmarried a little longer than her family's liking but she was never going to settle. She was ready to wait, until she met the one she felt was the right one for her. In a traditional family that only married off their children to what they were used to, she dared to be different. She dared to break her family's tradition by hanging on to one similar thing between him and her, ISLAM. He was nothing like her, except that he was just as practicing as she was. She had never been a football fan, but when the footballer comes into her life, she is exposed to a very different life, nothing like what she had imagined her life to be like.
