Language: English. Brand new Book. Set in Sierra Leone and spanning three decades of a young man's life from the 1970s to the 1990s, Mirage is a biography of Hakeem, a young man, whose notable brilliance, studiousness and ambition could have to destined him for greatness and success. He was born and partially grew up in Bo Southern Sierra Leone and had dreams and aspirations, like any other young person of his age, he was ambitious. He initially wanted to be a medical doctor, but his mother, Mama Mabinty, who was his benefactor passed away when he was about to take his Ordinary Level General Certificate Examinations (GCE) at the Bo Government School. This loss, however, poked a hole in his educational aspirations, as he faced one hurdle after the other. Hakeem's life was one anybody born and raised in Sierra Leone could relate to. Like all youths of humble background, Hakeem's future was intertwined with the politics of the day, nepotism, corruption and rogue politicians. Hakeem did all that he thought was required of him, including being an excellent model at school, but in the end, it all boiled down to finding a guarantor to sustainably support his ambition or else it could have been in vain. Mirage is a fact-filled narrative that reads like fiction. It is a must-read for men and women who have an interest in getting a glimpse into the lives of young people in Sierra Leone.
