THE CHICKEN REBELLION
By J.N. Nartey
A Pan-African Satirical Comedy
When the chickens of Africa suddenly stop laying eggs, the world is thrown into a frenzy. But this isn't just an agricultural glitch - it's a full-blown
revolution
. At the heart of the chaos is General Ko-Ko, a charismatic rooster with a sharp beak and a sharper mind, who leads a continent-wide poultry rebellion demanding dignity, justice, and proper corn feed.
Set in the bustling, fictional border town of
Kwame-Nkrumah-Mandela Junction
, where WiFi is stronger than government and every conspiracy is plausible,
The Chicken Rebellion
follows a wild cast of characters - from TikTok influencers and prophetic pastors to scheming politicians and philosophical chickens. As religious leaders claim divine poultry intervention and governments scramble to negotiate with livestock, one thing becomes clear: the chickens are not clucking around.
A brilliant, fast-paced satire that blends African absurdism, political commentary, and riotous humor,
is a laugh-out-loud tale of resistance, consciousness, and the pecking order of modern life. It's
Animal Farm
meets
African Twitter
, with feathers.
