How far does Friendship stretch?…

When Rekiya and Zaynunah met as teenagers, neither had any inkling this would be the start of a lifelong friendship. That the bond they formed so young would see them through the best and worst of time.

An unlikely alliance, Rekiya is the unacknowledged daughter of one of the country’s richest men while Zaynunah is the Ibadan born-and-raised hijabi with a more modest background. Years later, a monumental loss tests the ties that bind them; in friendship, of family, of self, and healing.

Rekiya & Z explores the themes of Time and its fickleness, trauma, loss and the varying realities of Muslim Womanhood against the backdrop of Africa’s most populous country.

About the Author.

Muti’ah grew up in Lagos, Nigeria and claims Ibadan as the hometown of her heart. A self-proclaimed bibliophile who reads everything except fantasy and paranormal, Muti’ah started writing in high school, hand-written stories in lined notebooks; invariably filled with teenaged drama, American high school themes and foreign-named characters.

Her writing has improved somewhat since then. When she is not reading, writing, doctoring or parenting, Muti’ah can be found watching documentaries on historical and social justice issues, exploring physical bookshops with her children or sleeping. She also enjoys building elaborate fantasies of what her life would be like if she didn’t have to work.
