Summary of The Last Days at Forcados High School
“As he begins his final year in senior secondary together with his friends, the sweet-hearted and devout Nene and Ansa, the nerdy art genius, he’s determined it’s going to be his best year yet.
But Jimi’s rogue brother, Wole, is back – which means trouble can’t be far behind.
Then there’s Efua, the beautiful and mysterious new girl in class who seems to have no time for boys – including Jimi.
But when Jimi’s mother falls ill, he realizes that things are about to change – and not necessarily in a good way.”
A funny and honest book about self-discovery, family, friendship, tolerance and the highs and lows of life as a modern Nigerian teenager.

Instead, Last Days stands out with its realistic situations, original characters and deft storytelling. It is at once entertaining and deadly serious, tackling a range of difficult issues including drug abuse, discrimination and loss, with intelligence and great writing.
