 Introduction 

 ✓ The Samaritan’ tells the story of two students in maracas who develop a mobile app called the Samaritan-an online platform for whistleblowing as well as sharing ideas and information enhancing public welfare. Soon, the App is flooded with damning information about the unparalleled corruption, malfeasance, and political capture perpetrated by Maracas political leader.

 ✓ The story is set in Maracas Municipality in a fictional state. During Sagrada Secondary School's end of the year closing ceremony, Mossi the mayor is invited to launch 'The Samaritan', a computer programme in the form of application which is an invention of students Alvita and Montano under the mentorship of Nicole, the Ethics and Innovation teacher.

 ✓ The app works by people sharing information in the form of pictures, videos and texts depicting corruption within the municipality, but the mayor surprisingly denies it on counts of possible misinformation, lie and witch hunt. He asks Nicole to stop it but seems like it is too late because it now is in the hands of National Information and Communications Technology Corporation.

 ✓ Mayor Mossi convenes an impromptu meeting a few weeks later in order to deliberate on their fate as the app has taken a turn for the worse and stories of rot in the municipality is dominating headlines in the daily newspapers. The meeting comprises of Bembe the IG of police, Harvester the municipality CEO, Ted the Secretary Department of Health, Ramdaye the deputy mayor and Jaden the judge.

 ✓ They plan on stopping the operations of the Samaritan app by mobilizing money to fight the graft cases on them, restitution(confessing and return embezzled public cash and property) and re allocating the Municipal Fund budget which Mossi vehemently refuses as it would all be traced back to him in the long run, to the dismay of Ted and Seymour whom financed his political bid and he in turn had advocated for their election to the council.

 ✓ Mwalimu Consultancy Ltd analyses that the meeting between Bembe, Mossi and Harvester sheds light on their corrupt dealings. Bembe is accused of drug peddling, violation of human rights, extortion of motorists by his gang of Ghettoboyyz and encroachment of public land by buying and building Madingo Golf Club in Maracas University land. Mossi is accused of Municipal capture while Harvester is accused of abuse of office by writing and posting a letter to the National government to suppress the usage of The Samaritan and related apps within the municipality.
