Solidarity for ever has become a common saying in the society where people defy rules and regulations in which they feel that their rights are in figured. In Betrayal in the city, Adika leads strikes in effort to criticize the leadership for deploying many expatriates into the country.
Adika leads the students to strike against the influx of expatriates and he is assassinated. This leads to psychological conflict in Jusper, Doga and Nina. Jusper kills chagaga for killing Adika. He is imprisoned and his parents Doga and Nina are murdered. The long-term effect of the strike and murder of Adika later culminates to the death of Mulili.
Strikes lead to imprisonment. Mosese is imprisoned and flogged for giving a speech and crying in public during Adika's funeral. Jere is imprisoned for associating with Adika's parents and insisting that the parents Doga and Nina should be allowed to carry on with the shaving ceremony.He is humiliated by Askari in prison and also flogged.
Strikes lead to Psychological torture. Mosese hallucinates when in prison because of his troubled mind: Jere says "when the madness of an entire nations disturbs a solitary mind it is not enough to say the man is mad." He says this in reference to the behaviour of Mosese. When Adika is assassinated as a result of spear heading the strike, Jusper gets very troubled until he behaves as if he is insane. Jusper says, "People say i am mad. My own mother thinks I am out of my mind.My father calls me crazy....."Mosese's sister Regina who is also Jusper's girlfriend is almost defiled by Boss. This makes Mr.Tumbo go through psychological torture for he had genuinely asked Regina to plead with Boss for her brother's release.
Strikes lead to vengeance or revenge. Boss is very bitter both to the strikers and to the authority. Boss is very bitter with the students striking and he becomes vindictive by deploying three hundred more expatriates.He says," I deliberately sent in an order for three hundred more expatriate personnel, just to put them in their place. " Mulili betrays Jere for allowing Doga and Nina to carry out the shaving Ceremony. Mulili vindictive by imagining that he has been belittled by Doga and Nina and hence ensured that the couple is murdered. Jusper presents a play that is aimed at punishing those people who have subjected him to a lot of pain.He exposes the evils of Mulili to Boss who betrays him.He later shoots Mulili because he has a lot of resentment over his actions.
