520 |a Chuku Debe and Ojo Dada are two Nigerians who come into conflict when Chuku runs over a small boy in his taxi, and Ojo feels that he ought to apologise. The boy (named Isaac) is dead by the end of the week spanned by the narrative. It is revealed that he is the son of one of the men - the parentage is also the subject of dispute - by a certain Moni, who changed her name to Dee Madam after acquiring her independence. The combatants remain unaware of the identity of Isaac as they go off to fight to the death at the end of the action. During the preceding week each has gained the support of a foreign power, the U.S.S.R. in one case and South Africa in the other. Each has been provided with military aid, on the condition that the child will be educated in the country of the foreign power.
