202 years ago, in the cities of Ibadan and Kano, a forbidden love story was about to unfold.
The city of Ibadan was a bustling metropolis, full of life and color. It was a city of merchants and traders, of artisans and craftsmen. It was a city of culture and tradition, of music and dance.
The city of Kano was a much quieter place. It was a city of scholars and teachers, of religious leaders and wise men. It was a city of faith and devotion, of respect and reverence.
The two cities were very different, yet they were connected by a common thread: a forbidden love story.
The story began with two young people, a man and a woman, who were from different backgrounds and different cultures. They had never met before, but they were drawn to each other in a way that could not be denied.
Their love was forbidden by the laws of their respective cities, and so they had to keep their relationship a secret. But despite the danger, they could not deny their feelings for each other.
The story of their forbidden love would span the years, and eventually lead them to a place where they could be together without fear of punishment. But first, they had to find a way to make their love survive the obstacles that stood in their way.
