Tisha

By: Sinmisola Ogúnyinka

Narrated by: Olusegun Gbadebo

Abbey Ilori, a Lagos-based student teacher, is posted to Abagboro Community High School, a secondary school in a remote village far from his home and all he is used to for his teaching practice, which formed part of the requirements for his university degree in post-primary education.

Abbey must cope with teaching English to local children who speak nothing but their dialect and, at the same time, endure the rudiments of living in a village. There, he meets Toro, another student teacher from another state, and they develop a close bond.

But new arrivals of four graduates on the National Youth Service Corps program will change the colors of Abbey’s stay and successful completion of his program in Abagboro village. Throw in Abbey’s infatuation with one of his beautiful students, Bisi, and the intrigues that surround the girl makes Tisha a beautiful tale of survival in the toughest terrains, a touch of romance, and a daunting race against evil men.
