SILAR DA NAMIJI

About this Novel

In the vicinity of *HINDAT GOVERNMENT GIRLS COLLEGE SCHOOL*, I witnessed a swarm of girls exiting the premises. The secondary school, located in Sokoto, is a modest government institution. In the city of Albarkatu, the atmosphere is particularly vibrant, marked by an air of liveliness and excitement, which contrasts sharply with the difficulties and challenges the students face on a daily basis. A young woman wearing a sari hurried along the familiar path back home. Amidst her quick stride, she heard her friend Anata calling out to her, "Deeyam, Deeyam, let's have a chat!" Despite the interruption, she continued on her way, brushing off the antics of the mischievous boys who persistently bothered her day in and day out. Neera's boyfriend changed as frequently as the days passed, much to the frustration of her friend Saida, who watched Neera's struggles closely. Saida approached Neera and remarked, "Oh Deeyam, every day Akatashi doesn't know where to go. Why don't you choose your path and stick to it?" As they settled in the car, Anazuwa joined them and they set off, with Haris at the wheel, dropping them home.
