    About this ebook

    Adeyinka lives in Ajapa Town a more prosperous neighboring village. He is very successful and well educated. As a result of this, the kingmakers deem him fit to be the next king, although he’s not Heir to the Throne. Some of the chiefs accepted to make him king because of his Wealth.

    Now, mal-administration, mal-adjustment, violence, and injustice are the code of conduct of Ikolu Village. In fact, King Adeyinka’s attitude on the throne is most reprehensible. The chiefs are all in consternation... Having realized their mistakes, they conspire with the great warrior of the village (OGUNREMI) to murder the king and they promise him great reward for his action...
