Synopsis

Jauro, a prominent cattle herder of the Ferooji Fulani clan, is forced to isolate his new-born son as a result of a prophecy procured by his first wife, Madujo, in a bid for supremacy over her rival, Demmo, who is not of their clan. This intrigue condemns the boy, Lameedo, with his mother and siblings, to a life of privation and want, despite Jauro’s immense cattle wealth. Chance turns up the opportunity of an education which Lameedo and his sister, Haleemah, take up, against much opposition by the clan. Disowned by Jauro, these seedlings grow strong in the shelter of Western learning, until the final showdown with Madujo and the old ways of doing things. This is a powerful tale told against the backdrop of the amazing cultures and traditions of the Fulani, untold until now.
