Midwife: that can’t be possible, let me check him ( so the midwife stood up and go to check the baby, but on getting to where the baby lie, she found out that was dead, when the queen also saw this, she fell down instantly and collapse)

midwife: (shaking the queen) my queen! my queen

King : my queen! don’t do this to me, please wake up (he screamed and was shaking the queen, but she wasn’t responding, so send three of his guards to go and summon the village native doctor which they did, in no time the native doctor came and after that he did some incantation and splash some liquid something on the Queen’s face, not too long she was revived and after that she started crying for the death of her baby and the king and midwife were consoling her, while the native doctor left, after everything the king later buried his child that same day)

The next day morning, the elders of the village came to the palace to sympathize with the king because they heard the news of what happened to their baby.

Elder Akumo: my king, am very sorry for your loss, please accept my sympathy

Elder okeke : really strange indeed, what can could actually be the cause of his death

king : hmm….. we don’t really know what happened to the baby, he just died like that and is still surprised me what really happened to him

Elder Anene : am suspecting that something is wrong somewhere because things is beginning to happen in this village, was it not yesterday the son of Adamma the widow died just like that without any illness

Elder Akumo : And even this morning, we heard that ojemba the palm wine tapper fell from the palm tree and died (he said and shake his head)

king : (shock) what!! you mean ojemba is dead, why didn’t you people tell me this on time

Elder mba: your highness, you know you just lost your new baby, that was why we don’t want to tell you yet because we know that you are going through a lot now and besides we just heard the news of ojemba’s death this morning (he said and the king shake his head in pity)
