OYIBO

Abandoned as a toddler by her wild child mother, Adesua's questionable pale skin, head full of taboo dreadlocks, and indeterminate parentage stick out in the remote south eastern Nigerian village where she is raised by her fiercely devoted grandmother. When Adesua leaves home for boarding school, she is shunned by her peers for her appearance and forced to exist on the periphery, a place to which she becomes reluctantly accustomed. But when a tragedy occurs, Adesua is compelled to embark on a metamorphic journey spanning Lagos, New York, and Heaven in a desperate quest for somewhere to authentically belong.
