"Leader of the clique- Regina Askia who ends up being dethroned by Rita Dominic. Rich kid - Omotola whose heart is broken by Jim Iyke, the player. Party animal - Tonto Dike who ends up disowned by her dad. Class president - Rita Dominic who is chased by Jim Iyke again but this time as a crazy cultist. Cultist - Uche Jumbo who doesn’t know her left from her right, smoking cigarettes all day."
