At some point, Oyebode experiences the common family financial hardship of not having enough money for his education. Oyebode graduated, was called to the Nigerian Bar, and earned a master’s degree years later. Though still young and inexperienced, he began his career in a big law firm. His boss, Mquio, belittles and degrades him, and some of his colleagues make fun of him in the courtroom. Changes begin when Mquio assigns 12 client case files to Oyebode, putting him in charge. Work became his addiction. He went on to become a successful lawyer. At a specific moment, Flavia—the daughter of a wealthy man—planned to accuse Oyebode of raping her, and she succeeded. Although Mquio is the one standing up for Oyebode, he still harbours resentment towards Michael, Oyebode’s father. The state counsel tasked with handling the case is Royal, Oyebode’s old neighbour. She is madly in love with him. She has the option of continuing with the case or resigning. An intricate tale of love and hard-charging modern law practice, A Brief Schedule is beautifully written. A young boy’s world, his life’s phases, and how he maintained focus in challenging circumstances are all depicted in A Brief Schedule with daring. A Brief Schedule, written by Racheal Oboh, who has cultivated her creative writing skills since a very young age. This book is sublime, and what happened to Royal’s family during the Nigerian-Biafran war gives it immense power. —Esther Ebube Okoye Author of Frenzy Cold Days
