The Nigerian in Me

Eniola’s life changes forever when her father dies in Oshodi, Lagos. In the middle of grief and confusion, her mother moves them to London, hoping for a fresh start and a chance to rebuild their broken world.

But London is not peace.

It is distance. Pressure. Loneliness. And a new kind of chaos.

As Eniola tries to adjust to a new country, new people, and a new version of herself, she quickly learns that pain does not respect borders. Love comes unexpectedly. Healing feels complicated. And growing up means carrying more than she ever thought she could.

Caught between where she comes from and where she is now, Eniola must find her voice in a world that keeps pulling her apart.

A story of grief, identity, migration, love, and survival , where starting over is never as simple as it sounds.
