Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 96

“Flow wetin make you com get power to dig well

well like this na? And you no follow us drink that

Squadron oh” Man said as we continued digging.

“na the handwork of Ike Nwoke oh” I nearly said.

This time around, Brainbox was offloading the

sand while I and Man were digging.

Although it was sunny, we dug to an extent that

water started gushing from the ground. Soon, it

got to my knee.

“Man you sure say we go fit finish this work today

so?” I inquired. “no talk that r’ubbish oh, we must

finish am oh, because tomorrow we go dig another

pit” Man warned.

If the price of digging a pit was 50,000naira, and

we succeeded in digging two pits in two days, that

meant we were rich, we were Big boys.

The thought of investing the money in the

proposed barber’s shop energized me to work

harder.

As we were digging, we were also measuring the

depth of the pit with a tape.

Since non of us worked more than the others, in

my mind i was thinking Man would want to take

the Lion share of the pay as our boss. “ehnnn!

Make him no try am oh” I told myself.

Unless he wanted me to prove to him that i had a

belt in Taekwondo. I would beat s’hit off him.

Who was i saying i would beat? Man? The

Babalawo? God forbid!! Even if he paid me to fight

him, i would reject the offer.

“my waist dey pain me oh, e don break” Brainbox

complained.

“no worry, we don dey reach the end, we go soon

stop” Man assured.

An hour later, Madam Ifeoma arrived.

She didn’t come alone, she came with Old Solja, or

rather Young Solja.
