The play revolves mostly around
Aloho, a naïve and jobless
university undergraduate who is
desperately searching for a job.
She meets Ochuole, a notorious old
school mate of hers who is the
Chief Administrative Officer at the
Ministry of External Relations.
Ochuole offers to help her secure a
job by speaking with the
Honourable Minister of External
Relations, Chief Ade Haladu-
Amaka on her behalf. Aloho is
offered a job as one of Chief Ade
Haladu-Amaka’s protocol officers.
However, she does not know that
Ochuole is actually being used by
the Chief to perpetrate criminal
activities especially drug
trafficking. Madam Hoha’s hotel is
the hideout for these criminal
activities.
Chief Ade Haladu-Amaka gives
Aloho a package containing hard
drugs to deliver in the United
States of America. Aloho
unknowingly accepts the package
and gets arrested at the airport by
drug law enforcement officers.
Chief Ade Haladu-Amaka bribes
the judge and the prosecutors to set
Aloho free.
Upon Aloho’s release from
detention, she discovers she is
pregnant for Chief Ade Haladu-
Amaka. She makes futile attempts
to abort the pregnancy and
eventually dies while giving birth
to the child. Meanwhile, a honest
police officer, ACP Yakubu initiates
investigations into allegations of
embezzlement of the sum of One
point two billion naira embezzled
by Chief Ade Haladu Amaka. Ayo,
a clerk in the office of Chief
provides necessary documents to
the police to unravel the crime
after receiving a bribe. Ogeyi,
Aloho’s friend seeks justice by
reporting Chief to the police.
Justice prevails in the end as all the
corrupt characters are punished
and made to pay for the crimes
committed.

When at break of day at a riverside
I hear the jungle drums
telegraphing
the mystic rhythm, urgent, raw
like bleeding flesh, speaking of
primal youth and the beginning
I see the panther ready to pounce
the leopard snarling about to leap
and the hunters crouch with spears
poised; And my blood ripples, turns
torrent,
topples the years and at once I’m
in my mother’s laps a suckling;
at once I’m walking simple
paths with no innovations,
rugged, fashioned with the naked
warmth of hurrying feet and
groping hearts
in green leaves and wild flowers
pulsing. Then I hear a wailing
piano
solo speaking of complex ways in
tear-furrowed concerto;
of far away lands
and new horizons with
coaxing diminuendo, counterpoint,
crescendo. But lost in the labyrinth
of its complexities, it ends in the
middle
of a phrase at a daggerpoint. And I
lost in the morning mist
of an age at a riverside keep
wandering in the mystic rhythm
of jungle drums and the concerto.

Thou art more lovely and more
temperate: Rough winds do shake
the darling buds of May, And
Summer’s lease hath all too short a
date: Sometime too hot the eye of
heaven shines, And oft’ is his gold
complexion dimm’d; And every
fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing
course untrimm’d: But thy eternal
Summer shall not fade Nor lose
possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou
wanderest in his shade, When in
eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe, or
eyes can see, So long lives this, and
this gives life to thee.

Mama is the most nurturing
character in
the play, and she constantly
reminds
Walter that all she has ever wanted
is to
make her children happy and
provide for
them. She cares deeply for Walter
and
shows this care by giving him the
remaining insurance money. She
cares
deeply for Ruth as well, consoling
her
when Walter ignores her. Mama
respects
Beneatha’s assessment of George
Murchison as being arrogant and
self-
centered, telling her daughter not
to waste time with such a “fool.”
Mama
loves Travis, her grandchild, and
hopes
their new house will have a big
yard in
which he can play. She is also very
fond,
though in a different way, of her
plant,
which she tries to nurture
throughout the play.

Nature figures prominently in
Frost’s poetry, and
his poems usually include a
moment of
interaction or encounter between a
human
speaker and a natural subject or
phenomenon.
These encounters culminate in
profound
realizations or revelations, which
have significant
consequences for the speakers.
Actively
engaging with nature—whether
through manual
labor or exploration—has a variety
of results,
including self-knowledge, deeper
understanding
of the human condition, and
increased insight
into the metaphysical world.
Frost’s earlier work
focuses on the act of discovery and
demonstrates how being engaged
with nature
leads to growth and knowledge. For
instance, a
day of harvesting fruit leads to a
new
understanding of life’s final sleep,
or death, in
“After Apple-Picking” (1915). Mid-
career,
however, Frost used encounters in
nature to
comment on the human condition.
In his later
works, experiencing nature
provided access to
the universal, the supernatural,
and the divine,
even as the poems themselves
became
increasingly focused on aging and
mortality.
