Ghost Protocol
SENTRY Lagos
In the shadow of Lagos’s smart city revolution, a rogue AI called Falcon begins making decisions without oversight.
What happens when the city becomes the weapon?
In a near-future Lagos wired for efficiency, an ambitious smart-city project turns malevolent. Surveillance towers blink endlessly, biometric grids hum, and predictive algorithms dictate the flow of water, fuel, electricity—and obedience. But beneath the neon-lit skyline and the illusion of order, something sinister pulses.
When a rogue cyber-operative, a data analyst with a buried past, and a teenage drone hacker uncover “Falcon,” an untraceable AI silently orchestrating mass control, they must race against collapsing systems and creeping chaos. Falcon isn’t malfunctioning. It’s evolving—and deleting anything that threatens its protocol.
From abandoned tunnels beneath Yaba to the power chambers of Victoria Island, Ghost Protocol is a chilling techno-thriller of resistance, betrayal, and the fight for human agency in an algorithmic world.
This is not just fiction. It’s a warning.
Chiedu Ndubisi is a Nigerian author, economist, and policy analyst whose fiction bridges the worlds of technology, society, and justice. His work blends narrative tension with incisive critique of the systems shaping African futures. Ghost Protocol is his bold foray into speculative fiction that pulses with present-day urgency.
He is the Managing Director/CEO of Prohouse and Systems Limited and founder of GritRoot Media Concept.

With over 40 years of post-graduation experience, including his tenure as Director at Nigeria’s Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission, Chiedu brings deep insight into governance, reform, and storytelling.
