Description: A Ticket for Regrets is the mind-blowing tale of how Dapo, in an attempt to humour a friend, encloses a lottery ticket in the wedding gift he presents him. Surprisingly, the ticket wins the jackpot running into millions of naira. This fires the greed in Dapo and he secretly plans to recover the ticket at all cost but fails woefully, suffers so much and regrets eventually. This slim narrative is obviously intended to decry greed.
