Synopsis

One minute I’m a broke university student cursing ASUU strike, the next I wake up as king in an ancient Naija palace—with a system that says I must destroy the kingdom to survive. Every foolish move I make backfires, turning my ‘bad’ decisions into legendary reforms and making the people worship me more. Omo, how do you fail at failing, when even your worst plans turn you into a hero?
