SYNOPSIS
LOTACHI is a young girl that has no knowledge
of her mother's origin. She is the child to a wealthy politician who bore her
out of wedlock and casted her aside lest the knowledge of her existence taints
his career. She lived with a nanny her father had hired to nurture her into
adulthood. Although casted aside, she lacked nothing. She fell in love with one
of the best lawyers and they moved in together after her nanny left to her home
town to take care of her sick son.
ORA is the closest friend to ADAM, they often
get into quarrels because he disapproves of her choice of profession. She was
infamous for her unprecedented skills and was the most expensive one around.
She has very strict policies to running her business and the slightest mistep
caused her to terminate whatever transaction she had with a client. She is curt
and doesn't believe in ever going to "God's heaven". She however has
a soft spot for ADAM and LOTACHI.
VWEDE is a married man that is facing issues
retaining custody over his son. His wife hires ADAM to help them win the case
and keep their son. Although at an expensive cost, they are able to achieve
this but their marriage isnt quite saved yet as his wife notices that he had
been unfaithful to her.
RUKA is the wife to VWEDE'S gateman SEGUN. She
travels all the way from her village in Ogun state to Lagos with her son. Her
husband had been away for too long and she felt he must have made enough
millions for herself and her son. She was disappointed to find he was just a
gateman and she gave him hell for it. Folks in the area seemed to like her
little son for he was was a beautiful baby. They often gave him gifts; monetary
and otherwise and RUKA converted this into an avenue of making quick and easy
money. She is of rural orientation and slightly razz in her behaviour. She
encountered Lotachi once and decided upon giving her friendly advise.
ADAM is crazy about LOTACHI, he loves and
pampers her and listens to whatever she says. He is always serious minded but
LOTACHI brings smiles to his face with her childish behaviour, innocence and
smart thinking.
The crisis occurs when ADAM tries to get ORA
to stop what she does, he was her personal lawyer and was tired of having to
keep doing the dirty business for her. She would not listen to him and stop and
so they quarreled often and avoided each other as well. Soon, LOTACHI's nanny
dies and she becomes saddened by this, shutting herself off from people, her
nanny was the only family she knew apart from a father that didn't want her.
Her nanny also happened to be DANIEL's aunt. Another conflict arose as VWEDE
makes fun of her demise after the burial rites were performed. DANIEL is pissed
at VWEDE and doesn't want to continue with their friendship. VWEDE's wife
contemplates divorce.
