Dear Readers,

Thank you for following The Loyalty Game—for immersing yourselves in Governor Iroko's twisted contest, the secrets behind the mansion doors, and the sacrifices made in the name of care and loyalty.

It is with deep regret that I must pause the continuation of this story.

Due to a recent contract rejection, I am unable to move forward with the project at this time. This decision was not easy, especially knowing how invested many of you have become in the tension, emotion, and truth woven into each chapter.

I still believe in the power of this story—its ethical dilemmas, its raw humanity—and I hope to bring it back to life when the time and platform are right.

Thank you for reading, for feeling, and for staying with me on this journey so far. The game isn't over—just postponed.

With gratitude,

S.A. Akinola
