Six-year-old Iyaji loves going to school in Igede, Benus State. One day, her father tells her she has to go and work as a housegirl in a big house in Lagos.
Little Iyaji works as hard as she can but she misses her home, her family and her books. Just when Iyaji begins to lose all hope of going back home to school, a policewoman follows her home.
