Nnamabia is the spoilt and mischievous first son of his parents, who live in the university town of Nsukka. The father is a professor at the university. Note: in Nigeria, many first sons are spoilt. Is it the same in your clime?
Spoilt by his mother as the first son, Nnamabia commits many crimes which finally landed him in prison. In Cell One, he met an old man being unjustly abused and maltreated by the prison guards. This maltreatment enraged Nnamabia, prompting him to caution the guards. This singular act landed him into more trouble and hardship with the guards.
