A school of thought has argued that genius will falter by the side of labor; genius is also a capacity for taking troubles. The experiences of three youngsters, namely, Ebuka, Nduka and Temitope, eloquently attest to this assertion.
Buoyed by exuberance and bonded by providence, these threesome around whom the plot revolves, were well on their separate routes to stardom. They aimed at life with the zest of youth and the resolve of humble beginnings.
Ebuka, a rather level-headed teenager with sound upbringing gets yoked to Nduka, a brilliant but somewhat impetuous young lad who easily passes for the enfant terrible of the story. Finding love that essentially redefines life to him, he gets detoured on his way to destiny. Temitope who happens to be exceptionally gifted in the area of sports decides to pursue a career along that line.
Fate, however, played a decisive role in how they three would eventually wind up in life, with Ebuka apparently the only one who manages genius well with a stable character. Nduka’s inordinate desires ran him aground. The jinx struck again with Temitope.
Blind Faculty – a magnificent scene.
