They attempt side-hustle gigs to supplement their income while studying. They come of age experiencing highs and lows. Their resolve is tested. They face academic challenges, police brutality, relationship dramas and lose friends who die tragically, while Nigeria’s economy worsens. Can they remain positive and persevere through adversity?
