Yan Biyu Ne Book 1 Complete Hausa Novel
Alhaji Isyaku, a wealthy businessman from Niger Republic, resides in its capital city, Niamey. Renowned as one of the richest men in the country, his business empire spans multiple nations. He is married to Hajiya Bulkisu, his cousin, and together they have three children: Mu’azzam, Abdullahi, and Aisha (who passed away in childhood). The two surviving sons, Mu’azzam and Abdullahi, are strikingly identical in appearance, so much so that even their family struggles to tell them apart.
Mu’azzam married Sa’datu, the daughter of one of his father’s close friends. For two years, the couple struggled with infertility, leading them to relocate to Saudi Arabia to continue their business ventures while seeking medical solutions. After seven years of prayers and frustration, Sa’datu miraculously conceived and gave birth to twin boys, Hassan (nicknamed Sawban) and Hussaini (nicknamed Irfan). The twins’ arrival brought immense joy to the family.
Abdullahi, on the other hand, married Halima, a woman he met during their studies abroad. They had three children: two sons and a daughter.
The twins, Sawban and Irfan, were inseparable from birth. They looked so alike that even their mother occasionally mixed them up. They attended the same school, sat in the same class, and shared every experience. But as they grew older, their personalities diverged sharply. By 18, Irfan had become rebellious—skipping classes, partying, and chasing women. His charm and looks drew admirers wherever he went. Sawban, however, was introverted and studious, preferring solitude or volunteering in his free time. He aspired to become a journalist, a dream his parents reluctantly accepted after he refused to consider any other profession.
After completing their education, Alhaji Isyaku set Sawban up with his own radio station. Irfan, uninterested in work, lounged at home, relying on his father’s endless wealth. He avoided responsibility, while Sawban grew increasingly frustrated with his brother’s lifestyle. Their clashes became frequent, but their parents, grateful to have children after years of hardship, rarely intervened.
