Trivia
C.J. "Fiery" Obasi who had been visiting a friend in the slum location began to develop a story based on the unique features of the area, such as its one-exit in, one-exit out feature, as well as the fact that the area had only one source of water where everyone fetched from. Obasi felt that based on the premise which through a recent UNICEF report had placed half the population of Nigeria as not having access to clean drinking water, and listing toxic contaminations as the majority of the cause of this water population, it was feasible enough to create a story that affected the common Nigerian.
