AJ's Story

AJ grew up in south London and was sent "home" to a city he left at seven. Two weeks after the deportation flight, bruised, broke and covered in mosquito bites, he limps onto June 12 Street on the edge of Ajegunle, where Lagos meets the prison wall and the container trucks never stop.

This is how he got there, and who was waiting. Read the six chapters here, then pick up the story yourself: AJ Cities plays free in your browser, and it starts on the veranda bench at Iloro House.
