In the fictional novel "The Morning After," the intricate web of political intrigue and ambition unfolds against the backdrop of Nigeria's turbulent landscape. At the center of it all is His Excellency, President John Gilbert, a man whose intentions were noble but whose association with a propaganda machine that churned out malicious rumors tainted his legacy.

As the narrative unfolds, it becomes apparent that the political landscape is fraught with tension and division. Two opposing parties, the ACP and the CPP, are determined to oust President John Gilbert from power, despite his genuine intentions for the country.

Bolade Bademosi, representing the ACP, and Ahmadu Abdullahi, the stalwart of the CPP, join forces to create a formidable mega-party, the APP, with the singular goal of toppling the ruling DPD. Under the guise of unity, Bolade and Ahmadu strike a deal to rotate power between themselves once their party secures the presidency.

In a rigged election that favors the newly formed APP, Ahmadu assumes the presidency, leaving a trail of unchecked terrorism and civil unrest in his wake. However, as Ahmadu's two terms come to an end, the question of succession sparks internal strife within the party.

Despite Bolade's pivotal role in securing Ahmadu's presidency, the masses clamor for a different leader, the charismatic Ogechukwu from the PLL party. Amidst mounting dissent and dissatisfaction with the government's ineptitude, Bolade ascends to power through yet another rigged election.

But his tenure proves disastrous for Nigeria, as corruption and mismanagement run rampant, plunging the nation into further turmoil. As the situation deteriorates and the people languish under Bolade's oppressive rule, a plot to assassinate him takes shape.

The day of reckoning arrives, and amidst widespread jubilation, the deed is done. However, instead of mourning, the nation erupts in celebration, seeing the demise of a leader whose actions have brought nothing but suffering and hardship.

In "The Morning After," the story of political ambition, betrayal, and the struggle for power serves as a cautionary tale, highlighting the dire consequences of leadership driven by self-interest rather than the welfare of the people. .
