Naijasinglegirl is a satirist, lifestyle blogger, brand storyteller and content creator based in Nigeria. She is on a quest to find a good man, a good job, good food, good money and all other good things life has to offer. Her blog documents the experience during this chase. Rather than weep over her single status, she chose to laugh about it on her website –she hopes you do, too. She published her debut novel in 2016 called 29, Single & Nigerian.
What is this book about?
29-year-old Edikan has lived her whole life in abject poverty. When she departs her hometown in Ikot Ansa for Lagos, her expectations are high.
A roof over head, a high paying job and a man she can finally call her own tops her priority. Months after, she is forced to grapple with the reality that the city of her dreams is not all that. With constant pressure from her family, the stigma associated with being unmarried and dark memories haunting from her past; days become nights and nights become torture.
29, Single & Nigerian is an emotional gripping, mesmerising and humorous tale of survival you won’t forget in a hurry.
