Azawani The Hood of a Mentor, is mentorship book that injects hope to the hopeless and faith unto the down trodden and the stigmatized of the society. Elizabeth was born by a poor, slave and stigmatized couple- Ibe and Ulo. They had prayed to God to give them a child, as they had become objects of mockery and ridicule being that they were termed barren and forsaken. At an old age, they had Elizabeth. Azawani was a rich woman who was highly revered and respected by the people, moreover she had royal blood in her. She had no child of her own. She was a close friend and ally to the poor couple and that did not go down well with her family and the entire community because slaves are not free to mingle with the freeborn. Azawani never care what people did say about them. She kept encouraging the couple. When Elizabeth was born the couple asked Azawani to adopt her. She named her Elizabeth after the Queen of England , peeping into future of possibilities and excellence concerning the new born baby. Azawani tutored the poor girl on wealth creation strategy, discipline, multiple streams of income and positive self esteem. The society was never kind at all to the couple and their innocent child Elizabeth. Their stigmatization continued until the poor couple and Azawani passed on leaving the poor girl all alone in this wicked world. It so devastating to her but she kept reminding herself of all what she learned under Azawani's tutelage. She had taught her the act of resilience, courage and not waiting until life stops hurting before choosing to be happy. Though it was tough for her but she kept faith. Before Azawani passed on, she willed all wealth and treasure to her goddaughter Elizabeth secretly through one of her strange and secret friends who lived in a far away village. The wealth was mysteriously and codedly handed over to Elizabeth. Thus Elizabeth became very rich and powerful, so that foreign investors travelled from far and near to partner with her.
