Ajaka

Ajaka is a play which parodies wanton greed, lust, and shenanigans of the power-drunk. It chronicles the dilemma of a great warrior of Imade town, Ajaka, who is ordered by his king to break an agelong vow and lead his soldiers into Ipesi, a small town they swore to protect. He refuses to obey the order and reminds the king and chiefs of the consequences of such betrayal on their part.The king is insistent; he breaks tradition and removes Ajaka as generalissimo and replaces him with Akilapa, Ajaka's closest lieutenant and bodyguard. Akilapa promptly mobilises. Knowing the implication of the breach, Ajaka tries to find a way of avoiding the looming calamity.
