A Black Sheep's Ego - Ahmed Yawson Jamirah

Adepa Aloni won’t be bound by the rules that keep her five siblings in check. She audaciously explores what it takes to be a child, free of worries and boundaries. Constantly Adepa spars with her siblings as she tenaciously defies their ideals, twisting the family’s paths. Her siblings call her by many names, but they all point to one thing: the trouble magnet who will drag everyone into ruin. Mr. and Mrs. Aloni hoped that Adepa’s curiosity was but a spark of youthful exuberance. Until the sparks of her curiosity grew into flames that spread wide, burning everything the family stood for. Adepa’s love for freedom came at a cost, a burden that risked her life and that of her loved ones. She maneuvers the complex realities of her choices and budding above the black sheep tag. A black sheep’s ego is a story of conquest against the odds. Adepa narrates her tenacity and how her family’s affection helps her to rise from the ashes of her mistakes. Her story is an account of unconditional love in a family that, in the face of her flaws, gave her the fiery determination to face her challenges on her own terms.
