AAJO (JOURNEY) centers on female protagonists with different stories. It showcases their flaws and strengths and sufferings. It shows different, dynamic characters involved in humorous and poignant dramas: an orphan who becomes a slave in America as she is tricked by a stranger; highschool lovers who meet again after twelve years; a dystopian world, ruled by war and homophobia; a woman who meets a bloody man with a shocking past; life after death and many others.

The tales in Aajo(Journey) captures the essence of life, and death. Fiction and some facts work hand in hand in these stories to feature powerful women, the men who helps/destroys them, family, and so much more. Some, initially losing all hope, find themselves being helped by a blight of confidence, while others find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time which may or may not lead to their destruction...

However, fear rules her life. After escaping the brutal slaughter of her village when she was a child, she entered the country of Amia as an orphan with a mountain of guilt on her shoulders. Years later, after surviving within the desert towns of a foreign continent, Imani finally faces the repercussions of being a thief. She is caught by the police after word gets reported she is causing problems, and they give her only two choices for her behavior. Join the military, or be exiled. Despite being alone, Imani does not wish to die. She chooses the former, and is sent off to join Amia's military as a trainee for an upcoming war that only holds painful memories for her. Yet when she meets a kind mentor who has his own secrets, a sheltered girl who wishes to do good in the upcoming war, and an albino reckless young adult, Imani begins to see that perhaps she is not as foreign from the other people in the country as she once thought. That diversity is not a crutch, but a strength. She faces training as a girl with a missing arm, exam trials, and an ancient power within her that hasn't existed in thousands of years. Yet not everything is as it seems in Amia, as the war brewing is beginning a ripple in a large pond of violence and selfishness. The young female comes to learn that there is way more to herself than she ever imagined, and the country she is fighting for might just be her ticket into changing not only herself, but the world around her. And Imani Firyali will go as far as she limits. Rankings: #2 in REFUGEE #16 in FEMINIST

"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. I wanted to follow her and speak to her but I heard the music start, signaling the commencement of Bilal's cousin Nadiya and her groom; Saleem's overpriced dinner party for both families. #WattysNG2020 **** This is Aaliyah's story from grass to grace as she faces obstacles created by her aunt who has done nothing but torture her since her parents death.
