PRISCILLA NYONG (with a suckling tied behind her back) is accosted by a strange man just in front of the bank she was going to deposit money in. The young man shows a pistol and asks her to mount a waiting motorcycle.
The motorcycle has a bulky rider revving to go. The man before her insists that she boards but Priscilla is stunned at the audacity of the man despite the security men and the surrounding human activity.
When the man pushes her backwards insistently, Priscilla screams for help.
What she gets is a terrible slap from the man who now barks at her to board the bike. A security man appears and the accosting man says the woman is his wife and she had taken his money to deposit in the bank.
The woman says she doesn't know who he is from Adam but the gathering crowd and the policeman order her to follow her husband home and settle the matter.
The man removes the baby from her back and takes it to the bike. Now Priscilla has to follow.
Arriving at an uncompleted building after speeding through town, they ascend the staircase to a room filled with rouge-boys all armed to the teeth. A few of them torment a victim and from the conversation she deduces that he had given them the wrong PIN to his ATM card.
When he releases another PIN for them to try, a voice screams at Priscilla to arise from where her face was against the floor. The voice asks her to sit that the oga (kingpin) wants to speak with her.
When she sits she sees a boy of not more than 15 years. She can't believe this little boy is their master. How did he come to lead men most of them above the age of thirty? In her fear she gets interested in everything. The way he speaks, his intelligence and how the older men reverence him. After her money is collected and she is sent out of their hideout, she remains curious on how he came into that predicament. With that intelligence he is supposed to be in the classroom, she reasons.
After narrating the incidence, GERALD, her husband warns her not to go there because he sees the curiosity in her eyes. She disobeys and, visits the hideout of the thieves the next day.
She dresses in the same attire of the day before and takes a larger amount of money with her. She is bundled into the presence of the boy. All alone to themselves she asks questions.
After a tough exchange she breaks through. The boy's name is FEZA and he is 13 years old. Priscilla is sympathetic when he reveals that his mum who was the bread winner died in a ghastly motor accident. His father was deceived into joining an armed robbery gang. He showed signs of been a hard man and so his father enlisted him into the group. When his father died in one of the operations, he had to dust himself over and take over as the head of the group. But then he makes it a smaller form of robbery where he robs people who transits into the bank to withdraw or pay in money.
Priscilla tells him that he needs to change because he is too intelligent to remain in that den. That he needs to attend school, gain knowledge and use it to better the lives of mankind. She throws passion and energy into convincing him giving examples of prominent people like Emegwali and Einstein...
The boy tells her not to waste her time trying to change the commander of a heart hardened group of criminals.
Moments later there is unrest in the house and the men of the underworld are rounded up after a gun battle with the police. Priscilla is surprised at how this happens when she had hardly started the mission of changing the life of the young boy. The boy is arrested.
Later Gerald reveals that he engineered the arrest. He saw the yearn in her eyes and he knew she was going to...
