His life is turned upside down after a series of unlikely events that lead him to becoming the most wanted man in Kenya and in connection with terror activities across East Africa. The nightmare starts with a corrupt police squad arresting him without due cause. His mother has to use the entire family savings to bail him out of jail leaving the family facing hard times. In his desperation to recoup the funds, Ayaanle is coerced by a friend to join a hoax that he is orchestrating in order to make some quick money.

The real terror group are unwilling to provide interviews, a Friend and Ayaanle conspire to hoodwink the news crew and pretend to be members of the terror group for the purposes of the interview in order to exact some money from the news team.
