Zamfara, once a land of peace and prosperity, had a strong Islamic heritage and hardworking people. But as time passed, corruption, crime, and societal decay began to spread, affecting even the highest levels of leadership.
Governor Halliru Murtala Gusau ruled with power, ensuring his children, Sultan and Sultana, lived in privilege. However, unlike their parents, the siblings had strong moral values and wanted to contribute to society. Sultana, in particular, dreamed of becoming a lecturer, but her parents dismissed her ambitions, insisting she didn’t need to work.
Meanwhile, in the poorer areas of Tudun Faila, life was a struggle. The community was divided into the hardworking, the criminals, and the indifferent. Among them was Lamishi, a strong-willed woman married to Dan Talo, a lazy and irresponsible man who spent his days drinking while his wives worked as maids.
THE DARK SIDE OF TUDUN FAILA
The underworld of Tudun Faila was controlled by Lawwali, Lamishi’s eldest son. Ruthless and fearless, he carried out criminal activities, including kidnappings and assassinations, for powerful politicians. Governor Halliru, the same man who claimed to uphold justice, secretly relied on Lawwali for dirty work.
Lawwali’s younger sister, Mubaraka, was different. She was the only one in the family who valued education and had a kind heart. Despite growing up in a corrupt home, she remained pure, praying that one day her brother would change.
THE ABDUCTION OF LAMIDO
A powerful businessman, Alhaji Lamido, was kidnapped under Lawwali’s orders. The plan was to demand a 500-million-naira ransom and eliminate him afterward. Unknown to Lawwali, the governor had no intention of releasing the hostage alive, fearing he could expose political secrets.
As Lawwali and his gang waited for the ransom, something unexpected happened—Mubaraka started questioning her brother’s actions. "Yah Auwal, do you ever wonder if what you’re doing is wrong?" she asked one night.
For the first time, doubt flickered in Lawwali’s eyes.
A CITY ON THE EDGE
As pressure mounted, secrets unraveled, exposing the ties between crime and politics. Lawwali was now a target—not just from the law, but from the very people who had once protected him.
Would he continue his life of crime, or would his sister’s words be enough to change his fate?
BETRAYAL FROM WITHIN
Lawwali had always trusted the system that protected him—until he realized he was nothing more than a disposable pawn. Governor Halliru, the man who had once relied on him for assassinations and kidnappings, secretly ordered his elimination to cover his tracks.
Unknown to Lawwali, one of his closest allies, Dan Jega, had already switched sides. The governor promised him wealth and power in exchange for betraying Lawwali.
One evening, while Lawwali and his gang were planning their next move, they walked straight into an ambush. Bullets rained down, and screams filled the air.
Dan Jega stood among the attackers, his gun aimed directly at his former leader.
"Sorry, Lawwali. Orders from above."
A SISTER'S TEARS
Meanwhile, Mubaraka had been praying for her brother’s redemption. But when she heard about the ambush, her world shattered.
She ran to the scene, only to find bloodstains and silence. There was no sign of Lawwali.
Had he survived, or had the system finally erased him?
A CITY IN TURMOIL
With Lawwali gone, chaos erupted in Tudun Faila. His remaining loyalists vowed revenge, while Governor Halliru tightened his grip on power, ensuring no one could trace his involvement.
But he had underestimated one person—Mubaraka.
Determined to uncover the truth, she vowed to expose the corruption that had destroyed her family and tainted their city.
Would she succeed, or would she become the next target?
LAWALI’S FATE—DEAD OR ALIVE?
Rumors spread like wildfire—Lawwali was dead. The ambush had been brutal, and his men had either been killed or arrested. However, no one had seen his body. Some believed he had escaped, while others thought the government had secretly executed him.
Mubaraka refused to believe her brother was gone. Deep in her heart, she knew that if Lawwali were dead, she would feel it.
Determined to uncover the truth, she began digging into his past, tracing his movements, and questioning those who had once worked for him.
THE GOVERNOR'S PARANOIA
Meanwhile, Governor Halliru felt untouchable. With Lawwali out of the way, he was free to continue his corrupt dealings. But something troubled him—Mubaraka's persistence.
He had dismissed her at first, but now, whispers were reaching him—she was asking too many questions.
"Find out what she knows. If she becomes a problem, silence her."
A SECRET HIDING PLACE
One night, as Mubaraka sat lost in thought, a mysterious letter was slipped under her door.
"If you want answers, go to the abandoned warehouse outside Tudun Faila."
Her hands trembled as she read the words. Could it be from Lawwali? Or was it a trap?
With no choice but to follow her instincts, she set out to find the truth—unaware that danger was waiting in the shadows.
MUBARAKA WALKS INTO DANGER
With the mysterious letter in her hands, Mubaraka knew she was taking a risk. But if there was even a small chance that Lawwali was alive, she had to find out.
Late at night, she made her way to the abandoned warehouse outside Tudun Faila. The air was heavy with silence, the kind that warned of hidden dangers.
As she stepped inside, a voice echoed from the darkness.
"You shouldn’t have come here, little girl."
Before she could react, strong hands grabbed her. A cloth covered her nose and mouth—everything went black.
A SECRET REVEALED
Hours later, Mubaraka woke up in an unfamiliar room. Her heart pounded as she looked around.
And then—she saw him.
Lawwali. Alive.
He looked weak, injured, but his eyes held the same fire.
"You shouldn’t have looked for me, Mubaraka," he said. "Now they’ll come after you too."
A BROTHER'S WARNING
Lawwali revealed the truth—Governor Halliru had betrayed him. The ambush was meant to kill him, but he had narrowly escaped with the help of an unknown ally.
"I can’t return, Mubaraka. I’m a dead man to them. And if they find out you’re here, you will be too."
But Mubaraka refused to leave.
"We can still fight this, Yaya! We can expose them!"
Lawwali shook his head.
"You don’t understand, sister. The real enemy is bigger than the governor."
THE REAL ENEMY
Before Mubaraka could question him further, gunshots rang out.
The hideout had been discovered.
Lawwali grabbed her hand. "We need to run. NOW!"
With danger closing in, one thing became clear—this was only the beginning.

Lawwali grabbed her hand. "We need to run. NOW!"
With danger closing in, one thing became clear—this was only the beginning.
A DARING ESCAPE
Gunshots echoed through the hideout as Lawwali and Mubaraka ran for their lives. The governor’s men had tracked them down, and there was only one way out—through the back alley.
Lawwali, still weak from his injuries, stumbled, but Mubaraka pulled him up.
"We’re almost there!" she whispered.
Just as they reached the exit, a black SUV skidded to a stop in front of them. Armed men jumped out, guns raised.
"There’s nowhere left to run, Lawwali," one of them sneered.
But before they could fire, a hidden sniper took out two of the men.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Lawwali and Mubaraka escaped into the darkness.
A NEW ALLY
They were taken to a safe house by the sniper—Bashir, a former intelligence officer who had once worked for the governor but now wanted justice.
"I have proof of Halliru’s crimes," Bashir revealed. "Documents, recordings—everything needed to bring him down."
Lawwali clenched his fists.
"Then it’s time to end this."
THE FINAL MOVE
With Bashir’s evidence, Lawwali and Mubaraka planned their next step—leaking the truth to the public.
But Governor Halliru wasn’t going down without a fight.
The next morning, news broke that Mubaraka had been “kidnapped” by criminals—a clear attempt to discredit her. The governor was preparing for war.
And the final battle was about to begin.
THE GOVERNOR'S FINAL PLAY
Governor Halliru knew his enemies were closing in, but he wasn’t ready to surrender. Instead, he launched a media campaign branding Lawwali a terrorist and Mubaraka his brainwashed accomplice.
News outlets broadcasted false stories, showing doctored videos of Lawwali committing crimes he had never been involved in.
Meanwhile, security forces were ordered to shoot Lawwali on sight.
Mubaraka clenched her fists as she watched the reports.
"They’re turning the whole city against us," she whispered.
THE ULTIMATE LEAK
With Bashir’s evidence in hand, Lawwali and Mubaraka decided it was time to expose the truth.
They sent classified documents, voice recordings, and video evidence to a trusted journalist, ensuring that Governor Halliru’s corruption became public knowledge.
Within hours, the nation erupted in shock.
The people of Zamfara took to the streets, demanding the governor’s resignation.
HALLIRU'S DOWNFALL
Realizing his empire was crumbling, Governor Halliru made one last desperate move—he attempted to flee the country.
But as he reached the airport, he was surrounded by federal agents.
With cameras flashing and reporters shouting questions, he had no choice but to surrender.
"Governor Halliru Murtala Gusau, you are under arrest for corruption, conspiracy, and multiple crimes against the state," an officer declared.
For the first time, the once-powerful governor had no words.
FREEDOM AT LAST
With Halliru gone, Lawwali’s name was cleared, and Mubaraka was finally free to live without fear.
Standing on the rooftops of Tudun Faila, Lawwali looked at his sister and said,
