Ever heard of yahoo yahoo? 419? No? Well you've definitely heard about internet fraud and we ALL know the country notorious for it, but who started and how did it spread across Nigeria? Zikora Zimuzo is born into a family fractured by poverty and his mother, a resilient woman burdened by five children from different fathers, has always fought to keep them afloat. But it is Zikora's eldest sister, Adaeze, who has been his rock-until her marriage to a violent military man and her subsequent battle with diabetes threaten to upend everything. As Zikora enters the university of Benin on a hard-earned scholarship, he finds himself thrust into a world of new opportunities and hidden dangers. It is here that he gets close to his secondary school senior,Munachi A.K.A Moon, a charismatic yet enigmatic figure deeply entangled in the notorious cult known as the Gentlemen of Edo. Drawn into their orbit, Zikora is soon caught in a web of rivalries with other cults-the Fineboys, the Vultures, and the Daughters of Delilah-each vying for power and influence. His thirst for money and a better life propels him into the Gentlemen's fold, where loyalty is tested, and betrayal lurks around every corner.
When Zikora is isolated from his old life, he finds an unexpected ally in Demilade, a carry over student in his class. Together, they embark on a perilous journey into the world of online fraud, using his wits and her desperation to carve out a future in a society that offers few gainful employment after graduation. As Zikora's choices lead him further into the shadows, he must confront the question: At what cost will he achieve his dreams? This is a gripping tale of survival, ambition, and the choices that define us. Set against the backdrop of a city teetering on the edge, it explores the lengths one 19 year old man will go to escape the past and secure a future, even if it means risking everything he holds dear.

A friend To Remember.
**** Money. Wealth. Fame. Power. They have it all. But beneath the glitz and glamour lies something far more sinister. Denise never imagined that her past was a lie. That twelve years ago, her life had been stolen from her. Growing up in the slums of Lagos, she learned not to dream-dreams didn't belong to people like her. All she wanted was a way out, a job to pull her and her sister out of poverty. But when the truth comes crashing down, her simple existence is ripped apart. She isn't just another struggling girl-she is the long-lost daughter of one of Nigeria's wealthiest families. And they want her back. Thrown into a world of untold riches, Denise is expected to adjust, to play her part in a life she never knew existed. But not all that glitters is gold. Her twin sister despises her, her new family is drowning in secrets, and the mystery of her kidnapping looms over her like a dark shadow. To make things worse, Bellrich Academy-the elite school she now attends-is a battlefield of ruthless rich teens, social hierarchies, and cruel mind games. And lurking beneath it all? A serial killer picking off students one by one. In this world, failure is not an option. Survival means navigating deadly secrets, deadly people, and deadly truths. Because in the world of the elite, the most dangerous thing Denise can be-is unprepared.Lengkap![𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 [ʟᴏᴏᴋɪꜱᴍ x ʀᴇᴀᴅᴇʀ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/344558307-256-k71591.jpg)
