Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 141
It was an upstairs kponkpon, we would have
to go upstairs to pour the rice and beans.
Very risky kponkpon, as someone might
mistakenly fall off. Or so i tot.
Bcos of how risky it was to climb upstairs to
pour the rice and beans, the money was
700naira per bag instead of the normal
600naira per bag.
War started.
It was indeed war bcos we were like 15guys. A
look at the wierd and rough looking guys, i
was sure about half of them were Masters
holders in kponkponity, while the rest were
Phd holders in kponkponical Engineering.
I and Brainbox were just WASSC holders
tutored by our master Man who was just a Bsc
holder.
Funny enough, Baba jay couldn’t be regarded
as a FSLC holder but a Nursery school
certificate holder, that is if there was any
certificate like that.
Work started.
Mehn!! it wasn’t as easy as i tot. Some guys
were even taking dry gin to serve as an Energy
boaster.
I took a sip of the dry gin, so did Baba jay.
It didn’t only boast my strength, it made me
developed wings. I was flying.
As for Baba jay, it made him changed his
walking step to that of a Robot.
Before i knew it, i was on my fifth bag.
Baba jay was really a fast learner, he was
catching up with the kponkpon tutorial he was
learning from some of the Phd holders in the
game.
I could finish only six bags before work
closed. Lazy me!! When there was a guy that
did 15bags, even Man did 9bags.
As we walked home, i was happy for Baba jay
that atleast his first day to work in the
“Ministry of Kponkpon” wasn’t a tragedy like
mine.
I never knew Tragedy would soon come for
him.
Hereditary “wahala” awaited him.
Something i never knew Baba jay had.
Something i only saw on Tv. I saw it in reality
for the first time.
We boarded the same canoe we boarded while
going. Just that we were the only passengers
this time around.
“guy una dey make money well well for this
una canoe business oh” Man said to the
canoe attendant. “naso oh, na God dey do am
oh” the Canoe attendant replied. “e be like say
i go come follow una dey do the business oh”
Man teased. “u never do kponkpon business
finish, u wan enter canoe business” i said.
I
We had barely crossed to the other side of the
River when Baba jay brought out the money
he had made and said, “omoh mehn! Money
dey for dis kpokpon business oh, see as i
make 2100naira today. “shebi when i tell u
make u follow me go do kpokpon, u tell me
say u be old man” Man said.
I had never seen Baba jay that happy since i
met him. “mehn see money oh!!” Baba jay said
showing us his money.
