Description

The new satire from the author of Radio Sunrise. Who will be the next president of the Society of Journalists in Lagos?

Who is qualified to lead the esteemed body of journalists and help uphold professional ethics in the state?

Will honesty and integrity be able to beat charisma and misinformation?When a sick man flies in from a neighbouring country, he becomes Nigeria's first ebola case-patient zero.

As the cases rise and journalists across the country vie for the lead in reporting the news on the imminent pandemic, Ifiok and his colleagues must immediately tackle the spread of the virus by raising awareness, sharing information, and supporting the outreach efforts of health workers.

Unfortunately, they also have to battle against hysteria, misinformation, corruption and denial.

Ifiok's love life could be a much needed escape from the stresses of work, if not for his meddling mother and the outdated traditions of society. Will Ifiok succeed in his quest to become the next president of the Society of Journalists, win the battle against misinformation and find love along the way?
