The Lagos Strain
Episode 1: "The Outbreak"
Abiola, a young and ambitious journalist, received a cryptic message from a whistleblower. The message hinted at a sinister plot involving Dr. Ozokwor and a mysterious virus. Abiola's curiosity was piqued, and he began to investigate.
Abiola's eyes scanned the crowded streets of Lagos, his mind racing with the cryptic message. He had to find the whistleblower, but the city was a labyrinth, and the lead seemed like a needle in a haystack.
As he navigated through the bustling markets, Abiola's phone rang. It was his editor, Mr. Johnson.
"Abiola, we need you to cover the strange occurrences in the city. People are getting sick, and no one knows what's causing it."
Abiola's instincts kicked in. This was the lead he had been waiting for.
"I'm on it, sir. I'll get to the bottom of it."
He arrived at the hospital, and the scene was chaotic. Patients were overflowing into the corridors, and the medical staff looked frazzled.
Abiola spotted a familiar face, Dr. Nneka, a friend from his university days. She looked exhausted but took a moment to speak with him.
"Abiola, it's like nothing I've ever seen. The patients are experiencing rapid cellular degeneration, and we can't find the cause."
Abiola's mind connected the dots. This was no ordinary outbreak. He had to find the source, and Dr. Ozokwor's name kept echoing in his mind.
