One of the toughest gangs is led by Hamzah, a thug with many wins to his name. His gang has their base in the biggest garage in the city, a domain dominated by the toughest of gangs. Five years after Hamzah and his gang overthrew the garage’s last gang, no one has been able to drive them out. Hamzah can be the coldest hoodlum in town, but he also has a very large heart. He recently beat up the family members of a child rap*st who were hiding him from the police. Hamzah wrecked all the cars in their compound and broke at least one bone in every male member he found before throwing the rap*st in jail. Despite his criminal activities, even the police cut him some slack because he helps society in his own way.

Hamzah was a child abandoned at the police station at the age of two. He was born to a mad woman, and her family members abandoned him when she died from a motor accident three months after his second birthday. The police superintendent at the time raised him because he and his wife had been searching for a child for ten years. Hamzah grew up in the police barracks and was interested in the physical and rigorous training. However, he dropped out of junior secondary school after frequently skipping classes to attend these training. The police superintendent’s wife was frustrated with raising the son of a mad woman. She was sure he had inherited her madness and didn’t like the stigma it gave her as a barren woman who could only raise the child of a mad woman. With Hamzah being a handful while growing up, she would starve him and send him out of the house whenever her husband was not around. Hamzah never reported this because he knew the police superintendent was already aware and was just being silent over the matter.

At age 14, Hamzah had formed a gang of boys who beat up bullies in school. One of the gang members, Usman, had an older brother named Yarima, who was a thug. Yarima took a liking to Hamzah’s values and wanted to raise him to be stronger. He hid Hamzah for a few months after learning of his mistreatment at home. Hamzah began working at a small garage, collecting money from taxi drivers and punishing petty thieves. He ran into the police superintendent one day in traffic, and they had a lengthy discussion. They agreed that Hamzah should choose his own path in life, but he would always be grateful to the police superintendent for taking him in as an abandoned child.

Hamzah quickly rose through the ranks of the criminal underworld, known for his street smarts, fearlessness, and ruthlessness. By age 23, he had his own gang and a small garage, which served as their base of operations. Hamzah’s reputation grew quickly, and he became known as a formidable thug who was not to be messed with. Despite his criminal activities, Hamzah had a network of allies, including police officers and their families, whom he had grown up with and who were now across different districts of the city and country. His criminal activities included protection services to politicians and other influential members of society, collecting dues from taxi and vehicle operators, and providing security and protection to his immediate community.

As Hamzah and his gang continued to expand their influence, they set their sights on the biggest garage in the city, which was controlled by a rival gang. They engaged in a bloody battle, which was one of the most violent in the city’s history and emerged victorious. Hamzah had become the city’s bloodiest and meanest thug, but he was also known for his unexpected acts of kindness. Despite his violent reputation, Hamzah was known to be fiercely protective of his community and would go out of his way to help those in need. He would rescue abandoned babies, defend the helpless, and had even been known to give money to families who were struggling financially.

Do you think he should be categorized as good or bad? Does he even need to be categorized? Why do people feel the need to label others in a certain way? This lady is a woman of the night, therefore she is bad. This is a teacher, therefore she is good. They are all people trying to find their paths in life. Leave the judgement to God, find your own value system, live by it, and stop bothering with how others live their lives.
