The Ambitious Village Boy

By Dili Nwankwo

How far would you go to escape poverty... and what would it cost you?

Obinna is a bright, restless young man born into hardship in a quiet Nigerian village. Fueled by burning ambition and a desperate desire for a better life, he dreams of breaking free from the suffocating grip of poverty and obscurity. When he arrives in the bustling city of Onitsha, he is dazzled by promises of fast money, power, and excitement-temptations too alluring to resist.

Torn between the wise counsel of his upright uncle, Mr. Fabian, and the dangerous pull of old friends living on the edge of crime, Obinna finds himself standing at a life-defining crossroads. Seduced by the thrill of easy riches, he makes a fateful choice that plunges him into the dark underworld of armed robbery-setting off a chain of events that will test his courage, loyalty, and moral limits.

As his world spirals deeper into danger, Obinna must confront the consequences of his decisions and answer the ultimate question:
Will ambition destroy him... or will he find redemption before it's too late?
