The #HngWriter Challenge

FINISH THIS STORY AND WIN N20,000

The Year is 2042.

A deadly disease is decimating the human population, wiping out nearly 1/5th of the people so far. There are several theories as to the spread of the disease but even more curiosity about the fact that only one country appears to be immune to this epidemic.

This country is Nigeria, your country of origin and place of residence.

As soon as it became obvious that Nigeria is the eye of the storm, the entire world begins a frenzied rush to extract whatever it is that gives Nigeria its fortuitous immunity. This, naturally, comes with a lot of problems for the country.

You are a simple Nigerian who generally lives a solitary life, but on this day you wander from your home to a hotel lobby on a date. Someone races past you and deposits a briefcase in your hands as you stare in confusion. The contents of this mysterious briefcase suddenly plunge your life into a kaleidoscope of action, adventure, romance (maybe) and intrigue.

Your story begins now.

AND NOW - THE RULES

Story: In your story, your character must visit at least three cities/towns in Nigeria on their quest.

Word count: Write as many (or as few) words as you want!
