Our chances heighten, we celebrate life, smile all the way, looking forward to another bright day. Surely, life is virtuous when it co exists with fortunes. The goodness therein is what we look up to- in the continent of Africa. THE DEPRIVED There is deprivation across the continent: from gender disparity to early marriage, domestic savagery, religious discrimination, political instability, child abuse, incest, ailment perception, and maladministration. Every main character in a different story shares her encounter of deprivation in a dissimilar region of Africa using her language and setting.
