Chapter 28 Summary

As Big Madam plans a lavish party for the Wellington Road Wives Association, Adunni must work harder than ever to prepare the house. A cow is brought to the compound, ready to be killed and barbequed. Kofi criticizes the Wellington Road Wives Association for being a group of out-of-touch, corrupt rich people who get drunk while pretending to raise money for charity. Kofi criticizes Nigerian politics, but Adunni notes that he is quick to take Nigerians’ money to fund a building project back in Ghana.

In a newspaper, Adunni reads an article about charity education program for female domestic workers. To apply, Adunni must fill out a form, write an essay, and include a reference from a guarantor. Meanwhile, Kofi is worried that Big Daddy might harm Adunni, who is the same age as Kofi’s daughter, and he suspects foul play surrounding Rebecca’s disappearance. Later that night, Adunni discovers a string of beads hidden in her room and wonders whether they belonged to Rebecca. 

Chapter 29 Summary
