Thus Saith The Candidate

In the fictional African nation of Azuraya, faith is no longer sacred but strategic. Truth becomes the price of survival.

When charismatic presidential candidate J. K. Otieno rides on a wave of revivalist fervor, churches fall in line, sermons echo his slogans, and to oppose him is to oppose God. But beneath the hallelujahs lies a tangled web of manipulation, fear, and ambition.

When Nuru Ayodele, an electoral investigator, and Leila Biney, a conflicted media insider, uncover a hidden alliance between political power and the pulpit, they're thrust into a dangerous fight for the soul of a nation.

As corruption deepens and deaths mount, whistleblowers become targets; and only truth can break the spell before an entire country is lost to spiritual deception.
