About this audiobook
Pain and Pride is a deeply human story about resilience, lost dreams, and the courage to begin again. Adewale, a talented mechanic in Ibadan, once dreamed of becoming an engineer before family tragedy forced him to abandon his education and carry the weight of responsibility. For years he hides his disappointment behind quiet determination and personal pride. When a chance encounter with a thoughtful stranger challenges him to confront the dreams he buried long ago, Adewale must face a difficult question: is protecting himself from failure worth sacrificing the future he once imagined?
Through moments of doubt, family support, and personal reflection, Adewale discovers that pain can shape a person, but it does not have to define their ending. Pain and Pride explores the tension between duty and ambition, fear and hope, and reminds readers that it is never too late to reclaim the life you thought was lost.
