Ifeoluwa Tobiloba is being ridiculed by her mum and sisters when she went abroad for her studies. Her mum said that the western world encourages women to follow a career path which will stop them from being proper and decent women, wives, mothers etc and will strip her of whatever values she had before going there so she is trying to prove to her mum that studying abroad doesn't do that. Along the way, she losses her father and deals with her cheating boyfriend who she has to tolerate because her mum isn't in support of her dating someone who has left the borders of Nigeria.
Later in her years she comes to know the real reason behind her mum's harsh behavior to her and would have to choose between pleasing her mum forever and being sad or chosing to be happy and do what makes her happy.
