THE PRIDE OF MY PEOPLE YESTERDAY


It was nearly dawn when the silence of the village was shattered by a ululation which welcomes the late chief's long-awaited son.Before long people trooped to the palace by day break one could count the number of dancers that had come to share joy of the chief.As sun rose promising the heat of the day.An Army vehicle arrived vomiting soldiers everywhere this marred the day's joy.An officer asked a young man standing by Naporoo a head teacher in Zugu primary school who cheated so many people including a policeman he promised securing visas to European countries but had failed.He however did not return to them the five hundred dollar fee he collected from each of them in no time Naporoo was arrested but the chief stood between them and said no..(THE POWER OF CHIEFS IN THE FIGHTING DAYS)
The chief said they could not arrest anyone including Napooro without first consulting him and hence the happiness of the day pave the way for a mixed feelings.To appease the chief for a misconduct the commander veered to the market haven bought some collar and added an amount they apologized to the chief.The blessings of the chiefdom was bestowed and calm was reinstated in the village.My dear youth gone where the days when no one could there the pride of the land.Today chiefs could be arrested,killed and prosecuted all because of our lack of verisimilitude.This was a nabob fish cake and who has taken the fish cake, first-rate it was.........and now the cat has taken the fish cake....The kingdom needs peace !
The kingdom is sold today for one chillings.The potentials of the kingdom is rusted.Hatred is traded from brother to the other and from onr sista to the other.I dream peace to this kingdom before demise.God shall birth and rain peace in this kingdom!
