Description: Where Lies the Honour? is a reminder to political office holders that their past may haunt them; their background may be their albatross. Allen Akun has little to recommend him for the governorship of Bagua State but wins the election. Exposed by a human rights group which gets its information from Allen's former fiancee, Allen, rather than throw in the towel to protect his image, stubbornly plans to quel the agitation for his removal. Eventually realising that he hasn't the ball at his fee, he secretly eliminate his ex-fiancee for her failure to play ball. He, however leaves a trail which he erroneously believes could only be covered by taking his own life.
