OverviewThe book tells the gripping true-inspired story of Shakirah, a young Ugandan woman who travels to Oman in search of a better life, only to find herself trapped in a world of deception, abuse, and despair. Her dreams of prosperity quickly turn into a nightmare of exploitation under the kafala system, imprisonment, and the loss of friends she had grown to trust. Yet, Shakirah's journey does not end in defeat. Returning home, she refuses to surrender to despair. With just $700, she builds a small but thriving enterprise in chicken breeding and fish farming, eventually expanding to a restaurant along the Mubende Highway earning more than she ever did abroad. This powerful narrative is both a cautionary tale and a source of inspiration. It exposes the dangers of labor migration exploitation while showing that resilience, ingenuity, and determination can create success at home. SHAGALA - Escape from Muscat is a must-read for African women, young entrepreneurs, and anyone seeking hope, courage, and the knowledge that a better life can be built within their own community.
