A Tale about Migrants is a social-realistic narrative following Kemi Oba and Rosemary Ehiosa, two doctors who flee abject poverty in their homeland for better prospects in the United Kingdom. Despite their professional status at home, the country's collapsing socio-political infrastructure left them with no hope for financial security. Motivated by a desperate need to break the cycle of poverty, they secure entry into England and join the NHS. Their earnings far exceed their previous expectations, yet they remain haunted by their past. This trauma fuels a singular, seven-year obsession: each lady commits to a major project back home-a symbol of their hard-won success. To fund these dreams, they endure a grueling existence, sacrificing leisure, relationships, and rest to work exhaustive overtime. Upon completing their projects, Kemi and Rosemary return to their home country to celebrate. However, their homecoming takes a dark turn. An unintended, near-tragic event occurs, forcing them to flee for their lives and resulting in the total loss of the assets they spent seven years building. Returning to England, the women are gripped by a mixture of relief and profound grief. Shaken by the experience, they vow never to return. The novel serves as a poignant reflection on the working-class migrant experience-the relentless drive to remit wealth and build a legacy back home, only to find themselves painfully caught between a new life in England and a homeland that no longer feels like a sanctuary.
