Yemi's grandfather was the Ajiroba of a town called Okeigbo. As the 'right hand of the king', he ruled over a region of 700 square kilometres with a population of 175,000.
Yemi', short for 'Adeyemi', literally means 'worthy of the crown'. His name alone predestines him for royalty. He also comes from a royal lineage. With the right efforts for the community, he can - in time - become a king.
But how can you have such a title if you don't know anything about the culture? What do you have to do to earn it? How do tribal titles affect modern Nigerian society today? Who really rules the country? And how does this affect the proud Nigerian people, 70 per cent of whom live below the poverty line?
Yemi gathers a crew and decides to set sail for Lagos, the ancient capital and home of his family.
