Reborn King: I Must Save My Kingdom

When Ifeanyi wakes up in the body of an ancient Oba, he must rule a kingdom on the edge of war, haunted by the voices of ancestors and surrounded by palace traitors. To keep his crown, he must betray his most loyal general—or kneel in shame before a rival king. But as enjoyment tempts him and fear eats his heart, will he choose honor, survival, or self-destruction?

After drinking a forbidden herbal brew, Musa Oladimeji wakes up in the body of a troubled crown prince—caught between palace intrigue, war drums, and elders who see him as just a stubborn boy.

No one knows the true king is a spirit returned for revenge—and this time, he won’t let betrayal win.

Sixty-three-year-old Ifedike dies a broken man in Lagos, only to awaken nine centuries later in the body of King Musa—a ruler shackled by betrayal and forced to pay blood price to ruthless raiders. With the weight of two lifetimes and a nation’s fate in his hands, Musa Ifedike must battle palace traitors and fight for the poor, even as old enemies and new dangers close in. In this world of gold and blood, can a stubborn spirit from Palm Grove change destiny, or will he be sacrificed like all who came before?

After ruling Umuola for thirty years, Oba Ifedike dies—only to awaken in the body of his own Crown Prince at his own burial. Forced to grieve for himself and hide the truth, he discovers his gentle Queen is fiercer than any warrior, and his kingdom teeters on the edge of chaos. With ancient secrets, hungry rivals, and his true soul trapped between worlds, can the Oba save his son’s throne—or will his next move doom them both?

For five bitter years, Obinna—once the Lion of Umuola—has been trapped in the body of a powerless king, forced to kneel before Queen Mother Adesuwa while foreign armies slaughter his people. Every day, he bows in shame as Adesuwa hoards power and celebrates while the kingdom burns. Tonight, Obinna will risk everything: if he cannot break the chains and rise, then the blood of his ancestors and the hopes of a nation will be buried with him. Who will rule—lion or goat?

Musa Garuba wakes in ancient Oyo, forced to fight both enemy armies and the treachery of his own council—while his clever queen, Morayo, plots with rivals behind palace curtains. As betrayal, blood, and ambition threaten to destroy the kingdom, Musa faces a deadly new warlord rising in the north. With Oyo’s fate hanging by a thread, can a king with nothing left to lose outsmart both his enemies and his own wife?

One minute I’m a broke university student cursing ASUU strike, the next I wake up as king in an ancient Naija palace—with a system that says I must destroy the kingdom to survive. Every foolish move I make backfires, turning my ‘bad’ decisions into legendary reforms and making the people worship me more. Omo, how do you fail at failing, when even your worst plans turn you into a hero?

Ikenna Okoye wakes up in the body of disgraced war chief Musa Danladi, forced to lead a broken kingdom on the edge of Fulani invasion.

The fate of his people—and his own honour—hangs on a dangerous gamble that could either save Zaria or destroy it forever.

Born weak and unwanted, I was the only hope of a desperate palace—until my own blood plotted to replace me with a stronger cousin. Betrayed by my mother and hunted by killers, I must fight to survive, or be buried as the royal child who never lived. Who is the shadow in the palace saving me, and what secret does my bloodline truly hold?

I died at the hands of my own blood—betrayed by family, robbed of everything, and tossed aside like yesterday’s akara. Now, God has sent me back to the very moment my naive stepsister is about to fall for a fake Dubai prince. This time, I must outsmart my greedy family and save her from ruin, or lose my life—and soul—all over again.

Once, I was the pride of Garba Kingdom, shaming servants with every step. Now, stripped of my crown and dignity, I am powerless under the touch of Musa Lawal—the eunuch I disgraced, who now holds my fate and my mother’s life in his hands. Trapped between shame, forbidden desire, and a revenge that cuts deeper than any blade, I must decide if I will beg for mercy or surrender my pride forever.

One moment, I’m an ordinary man—next, I wake up in a strange, starving world, made chief over fifty desperate labourers doomed to dig burial grounds. Armed only with a mysterious food system, I must save my people from hunger, riots, and betrayal, even as everyone suspects I’m a spirit or a demon. But when a secret lion tally puts three hundred horsemen under my command, the fight for survival explodes—can kindness make me king, or will it paint a target on my back?
