Cont...

We are not done with Oga household drama yet o.
So I heard after days of house arrest and starving his wife, Oga decided to set her free on a condition that she will apologize and not cause trouble again and she will never mention divorce or separation again, but madam vehemently refused to apologize that over her dead body and that she has done nothing wrong.
So Oga too stood his ground that he wouldn't let go but this no longer sat well with her family who have now come to an agreement that their daughter's life matters most, so the invited some key persons in the family that will come and see to it that this doesn't continue, so Oga started to intimidate with his threats again but this time they weren't afraid anymore, from dialogue to arguments and use of force, madam was finally released.
Her family requested to leave with her for now till everything is settled and it is safe for her to return to the husband, Oga was threatening fire and brimstone, that if she leaves, she is never coming back, he will remarry and forget her and she will not take his children anywhere, her family will return bride price and pay back everything he ever spent on them.
Guess madam's mind is made finally, no matter what, she agreed to leave with her family, they will figure out every other thing afterwards, everyone is saying that is the best decision but of course not for the children who are caught up in this entire drama, my heart goes out to them.
So many things have been running through my mind since this incident, is this like a case of forced love or is Oga just wicked? Should a woman leave her career and life to bury herself in marriage? Do accepting help from in-laws now a problem? How will the children feel or cope in all this? Will there be possible restoration in this home in future?

Happy new year my people
This year will be great, nothing will stop usπŸ™
I have great stories for you all, sit tight, invite a friend and engage.

This one is small area gist. As e the hot.
So, is all about this popular Oga on our street, a well-known politician, businessman and philanthropist at his level, you can't help but notice him when you enter the area, his house stands out, the exterior design architecture stands out, I can't say for the inside cause I haven't enter but those who have don't stop singing the praises of the mansion.
For the time I have been here, I can't say I know his wife, she doesn't show herself, always indoors, probably she is a quiet person, more like introvert, they said she is beautiful and gentle too. Everyone praises her for those qualities. They have 3 children of teenage age already, they often come out from time to time when they are back for school holidays, just around their street, but for distant outings outside the area, they use cars driven by the family driver.
Here is the gist, for some days now, this Oga's house have been in chaos (allegedly). The wife is threatening separation or divorce, that she is tired of all she has endured and currently passing, all this means nothing to Oga cause he has made sure his wife and family are completely dependent on him, so no one has been bold to come out and support this woman. In her helplessness, she has resulted to continue the endurance journey (probably). It turned out, this woman is one of those cases of losing yourself completely in marriage, she had to quit her job after marriage which was what the husband wanted, she had to cut all connected with family, friends and classmates to be the perfect Oga wife.
Ask about her family, Oga is in charge, he first of all helped paid her tuition in her final year, helped the other siblings through school, businesses of their choice, he has helped a lot from time to time, everyone will think is out of goodwill but it turns out, he doesn't forget to rub it in their faces and threatens to withdraw anytime his wife wants to fall on her family for help. Not wanting to lose such an in-law, their daughter has since been the sacrifice. This last incident, when the brought her back, Oga slapped her in their presence, locked her in an empty room for house arrest, they said is been three days, she hasn't seen the light of day, no food, maybe for water she may be drinking from the bathroom tap, her children, her family and others have been begging Oga to no avail.
Something funny is said has happened too, Oga was said to have left home after putting his wife on this house arrest, he planned to take days and clear his head with his side chick, on getting to the house, he rented for his her, side chick was already with her main boyfriend, knowing Oga wasn't going to be around as they agreed. So side chick was angry and asked Oga to apologize to her boyfriend, Oga left angrily back to his house.
This gist long o, I will be updating you all as issues unfold.

ONCE A LOST CHILD 1

Tracy sat in the Vehicle quietly, her mother sat beside her and just held onto her hand tight and kept playing with it lovely.

She was obviously trying her best to control the tears in her eyes from dropping, it was time to be strong not just for herself but her daughter, we can say it was tears of joy, pity, victory and sorrow.

Both mother and daughter were in that state, a lot was going on in their minds, everything was happening so fast.

For Tracy, it was a day of freedom after 20 years, she was stepping on another ground again, she was seeing her mother again, not just that she was in her arms, the last time she had the opportunity was when she was seven years.

Tracy quickly went down memory lane, that fateful day, her young and beautiful mother brought her to the bus stop where her school bus was to pick her and stayed with her till the bus came to take her to school, then her mother will proceed to her place of work, this was her normal routine every school day.

When you calculate the years from that time to now, she was like 27 years and a full grown woman now and her mother was in her late forties.

Tracy turned to look at her mother once again, she has grown kind of old and little bit small in size but it is safe to say, she was still beautiful but looked like someone who has been through a lot in life.

As she looked at her mother, their eyes locked together, her mother's teary eyes made her emotional again and tears filled Tracy's eyes too.

They both allowed the tears to flow freely down their cheeks as the hugged each other letting all their emotions out through the tears.

The only words Tracy's motherwas managing to say was, "my child, my baby girl"

Everyone who looked at this two mother and daughter reunion felt the emotional connection.

Twenty years of been apart was something one can't just comprehend in a day. Time has gone by, years and seasons has passed, a lot has happened.

It was the voice of the female police officer that bought the mother and daughter back to the consciousness of the environment they were in, it was actually a police station.

To be continued...

Just as the saying goes, never judge a book by its cover.

Is been a while guys, watch out for this interesting story in my next post.

12/03/2024

Anytime I remember this I laugh a lot even though it wasn't funny when it happened, crazy things really the happen.

There was this office that use to share the same building with ours at my formal place of work.

We use to occupy the down floor while they were up and on many occasions people going to their office will mistakenly enter ours before they will be directed to go up.

One of my beautiful single colleague was a frequent visitor to this office, no matter how we asked her why she frequently visited that office, she will never tell.

Until it became known to everyone that, she was the CEOs side chick, yes the man was married but his family stays abroad, they only visit once in a while.

So this my colleagues was a comfortable side chick, everyone in the other office too knew she was the Boss's special guest and the accord her the respect, she had free access in and out of the office.

On this faithful day, it happened to be this CEO's birthday, this my colleague made the necessary arrangements with a caterer for an executive food tray to surprise her sugar guy.

So immediately the caterer called to inform her she was in the office area, this my colleague directed her to go to the office upstairs and wait in the reception area.

While she also rushed up to meet her sugar guy, She had planned to blindfold him and present the surprise package to him in the reception.
(Na me them even contract, give me iphone to do video coverage for the surprise).

Imagine, all this efforts for another woman's husband, well that innocent cake, chicken, fried rice, wine and juice will not eat themselves, they need people like us, you GerritπŸ€£πŸ˜‹πŸ€ͺ

After my colleague successful distracted the birthday man and blindfolded him, I started my job of video coverage. My colleague lead him to the reception area where the surprise awaited him.

Everyone was in place cause immediately the blindfold is removed, we all were to shout, surprise!! And sing the happy birthday song while the caterer presents the food tray. So sweet right πŸ€ͺ

As my colleague was untying the blind, our office receptionist was coming in directing this madam into this office, maybe because of the load the woman was carrying, our office receptionist chose to help her carry them up as she directed her cause we often received many people who wrongly enter our office instead of this one up.

The madam was carrying a sizeable cake and our receptionist helped her with her gift pack and money bouquet. Is obvious she was here for the birthday man too.

When the blind was removed, the surprise became surpriser, we haven't known the real identity of the woman who just came in, so we continued with our plan to sing the happy birthday song.

We all were caught short halfway through the song when this woman commanded that we should shut up, then called the CEO and birthday man by name and request what was going on.

That was when we also carefully observe the uneasiness of the CEO when he saw this woman, like he has seen a ghost.

"Which of you cheap things arranged this nonsense for MY husband?" The woman asked stressing the my as she angrily looked at all of us.

Everyone now understood that trouble was here and we all didn't say anything waiting for the CEO to clear things up.

"Sweetheart, you don't have to". The CEO was trying to explain as he approached the woman.

" Shut up, I will deal with you when am done setting things straight with the fo"l who dare to gift my husband this happy birthday baby cake". She roar at her husband.

The whole atmosphere was so tensed up, the rest of us were innocent except those two. I began to regret getting involved in this. Even the CEO was cut short and he became like a puppy, what was the fate of the rest of us.

"Ma'am we sorry, we just wanted to celebrate the Boss, is not what you think, for the cake the mistake should be from the caterer".

This my colleague put up this act as she stood out to address this woman, she also made some eye contact with the caterer who was still present and she understood.

"Yes ma, I am the one who baked the cake, am sorry the work was under a short notice, I rushed so much that I didn't notice my mistake" the caterer spoke up.

Without anymore evidence to further her baseless accusations, this woman calmed down and apologized, she also advise the caterer to be more careful next time.

The birthday went well afterwards, we all enjoyed ourselves, but I fear this my colleague and all side chick till today, is like one also need special acting and fast thinking skills for this their job.

I walked out of Fidelity Bank on Old Otukpo Road recently and just before I got to the road to get a bike, I saw a former neighbor.

These people that would claim that they were there when you were born, I don't know how they do it but you would grow up and catch up with them and become like buddies.

After about a year or two of not seeing each other, we were so happy to meet again......but he was more excited, I don't know why but he seemed more excited.😁

We did a little catching within 5 minutes and I announced to him my intent to hit the road to my next destination.

He okayed my proposal.

But just before I took the first step away, he asked where I was headed.

I was heading to SUBEB area.

Na so bros say our destinations match.

Okay πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ.

But that would be the beginning of this gist.

So like kidneys wey match, Bros suggested that we sit on one bike since we were heading in the same direction. πŸ™„

I politely declined. No.

He would not take it.

I still said no.

Bros asked to know why

I couldn't bring myself to tell him the exact reason, or the whole reason, that would be me strolling away from politeness so I just laughed and told him no reason actually but I just don't like sitting two on a bike.

Even with this much explanation, bros still did not understand me.

He asked if I was shy. Yes, I was shy too but I didn't admit that to him because aside being shy, there were other reasons.

I just said No, I am not shy.

He was beginning to get on my nerves at this point because aside from that he kept insisting on bending me to do his wish, he was also wasting my time. 😠

He said if I am not shy then we should sit on one bike.

My anger was hitting the rooftop because he was beginning to make me look and feel like a timid girl whose choice shouldn't be taken seriously.

I said an emphatic "No" and added "msoo ape tuman agugu mom ve awe ga" (I do not want to sit on one bike with you)

That hit the spot. It seemed like he got the memo. He recoiled a bit into his shell. The fire in him seemed suppressed. He looked drenched like a man thoroughly beaten by August rain. His pride feathers looked ruffled. He tucked his tail between his legs and went mute.

I saw what I did to him. I felt bad. I felt good also. And then I understood his point. I tipped him. That made him reveal a half smile but I was too much in a hurry to wait for him to reveal his entire smile as it seemed like it would take him forever to return to his wild laughter mode.

I flagged the next bike and we negotiated and he picked me away, single, I cannot come and be doing marriage on a bike on a Monday morning as if I am going to or coming from Agagbe.

On the bike, I reminisced the last scene and said aloud in my head "Is like this man wey near be my father mate no know say I be influenza for Makurdi Facebook o, plus I dey manage brand"

Because if him know, where the guts to carry influenza and brand manager put for middle of okada like Eze Goes to School when him mama ahbi him papa dey excortam go Onitsha 🀣

Nawao! This old people πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Okay bye.
