How much of yourself would you sacrifice for the life you think you deserve? In the restless streets of Port Harcourt, Cleverson Obinna Ekpo has talent, ambition, and every reason to believe he can build a better future. Gifted with technology and determined to rise beyond his circumstances, Cleverson would rather create his way to success than take the shortcuts flourishing around him. But in a world where wealth commands attention and social media makes everyone else's success look effortless, doing things the right way can begin to feel painfully slow. Around him, friendships are changing. Money is speaking louder. Relationships are being tested. And the seductive world of internet fraud—where young men can appear wealthy almost overnight—is moving closer to the people he trusts. Then the lines begin to blur. Between friendship and complicity, ambition and greed, love and betrayal, survival and morality, Cleverson is drawn into circumstances that will force him to confront not only the choices of those around him, but the kind of man he intends to become. Set against the vibrant, complicated backdrop of contemporary Nigeria, Yahoo Boys is a gripping story of young people chasing better lives in a society where legitimate dreams and dangerous shortcuts sometimes travel the same road. It is a novel about technology, money, family, friendship, love, crime, pressure—and consequences. Because sometimes the most dangerous decision is not the one that looks wrong from the beginning. It is the one that looks like an opportunity. YAHOO BOYS A novel by Teacher Richard
