  • Don't Die on Wednesday is a story of the game of life, when life suddenly becomes laced with danger and fear, and no one knows how the game will end. Rising football star and Tottenham FC top striker Bubarayer Dabowei's career is torpedoed by freak accident at a game against crack Manchester United squad.

  • When a teenager found himself in a taxi with two strangers, little did he know he was about to embark on the ride of a lifetime. Gifted a special medallion by the two men and a charge to use it for good, he quickly realises that keeping the ancient jewellery safe was just as important as saving the world.
  • Ebinimi, star mechanic of Kalakala Street, is a man with a hapless knack for getting in and out of trouble. Some of his troubles are self-inflicted: like his recurring entanglements in love triangles; and his unauthorised joyriding of a customer’s car which sets off a chain of dire events involving drugs, crooked politicians, and assassins. Other troubles are caused by the panorama of characters in his life, like: his sister and her dysfunctional domestic situation; the three other mechanics he employs; and the money-loving preacher who has all but taken over his home. The story is fast-paced with surprising twists and a captivating plot – a Dickenesque page-turner. This is Ebinimi’s story but it is about a lot more than him. It is an exploration of the dynamics between working-class people as they undertake a colourful tour of Yenagoa, one of Nigeria’s lesser-known cities, while using humour, sex, and music, as coping mechanisms for the everyday struggle. It is a modern-classic tale of small lives navigating a big city.
