Good afteroon young man, the pastor said to me
Good afternoon pastor, i replied.
So what is your name young man, he asked.
My name is Daniel sir, i answered
Oh brother daniel, you have been a member of
this church for a very long time now, but i
observed that you have been absent for some
weeks now.
Yes, you are right pastor.
So what do you have to say about it.
*i no go wan lie because e get as e go be, inside
church for dat mata, but i no kon get any
reasonable excuse*
I was in my hometown, i visited my parents and
spent some time with them, dat was what
actually caused my absence.
Okay, but now that you are back, i will advise
you spend more time with God.
I will do that pastor.
Dats good, do not forget the meaning of your
name, for you will be Judge by God according to
the way u act.
Immediately he said this words, my concience
became guilty, truly the Lord is talking through
this man, i said to myself.
Have a nice day brother daniel, and i do hope to
see you in church next week sunday.
Thank you pastor, i said to him, bid him farewell
and left for home.
**********************************************
I got home, said a short prayer and had a
change of clothes. I then entered the kitchen to
prepare lunch, after the food was prepared, i
couldn’t even eat because i never had the
appetite.
Just busy thinking of Jenny, i have never really
been in a serious relationship before, but from
the look of things, if she gives me a chance, i
won’t let her regret it.
But all this while, i never got a call or text
message from clara since that incident and i am
no even bothered about it because tripping for
her will lead me no where, she is just a s-x
freak.
I took my phone and opened whatsapp, just to
check if jenny had an account on whatsapp.
Yes dats it,
her account was right there staring
at my face, i decided to send her a message but
that will be to soon, since am just coming back
from church.
I opened bbm so as to have a chat with Jaga,
and that was when i got a message telling me
my data bundle has exhausted.
D--n it, i quickly checked my pockets and
brought out some naira notes.
I hurriedly left the house and headed to the
nearest shop were recharge cards were sold, i
purchased airtime worth a thousand naira which
i will use in renewing my subscription.
On getting home, i checked my phone and saw
four missed calls from an unknown number.
I couldn’t call back coz i didn’t purchase call
airtime.
I opened bbm after subscribing for the one
month plan, that was when the call came again
and i picked the call.
Hello, i said.
Am i speaking with Daniel?
Yes, how may i help you?
Please come over to Divisional Police
headquaters immediately.
Why, what for?
Jaga needs your help
Then the line went dead.

EPISODE 14

I stared at my phone with disbelief, this can’t be
true, what will jaga be doing in the police station on
a Sunday. I wished i had airtime to call back but i
didn’t.
Without wasting much time, i stood up and put on my
clothes, i have to help jaga, if he is locked up, dat
means he will be on bail so i have to take some cash
along.
No one goes to a police station with full pockets and
comes out without spending a dime, i trust our
Nigerian police officers *winks*
After leaving home, i quickly headed straight to the
bank to make a withdrawal. Few minutes later, i was
already on my way heading to the location which was
very far from where i live but happens to be the
only police station close by where jaga resides.
On reaching there, i entered the police station and I
saw jaga and two of his friends at the entrance.
Jaga, i shouted with a surprise look on my face.
I was thinking he was locked up, but seeing him here
made me more a curious.
Jaga: Daniel thank God say you don come.
Daniel: Jaga na wetin dey happen?
Jaga: I was robbed last night
Daniel: robbed? How manage na
Jaga: i didn’t even know how it happened, it was at
gunpoint, they were about six in numbers.
Daniel: na wetin dem come do?
Jaga: which kind question be dat one, na wetin dem
dey do before, no be to steal.
Daniel: so what did they steal.
Jaga: they went away with my laptop, phones and
some amount of money which i had kept at home. I
just got a report this morning telling me that the
robbers had been
caught and all stolen goods has been retrieved from
them.
Daniel: since you are here, why haven’t you collected
yours?
Jaga: i have already gone, i spoke with the officer in
charge but he said that before I can take it, I will
have to deposit the sum of twenty thousand naira.
Daniel: 20k, for wetin na
Jaga: the tin surprise me sef, right now am on
having 12k which was contributed by my friends
here, that was why i sent for you.
Daniel: good thing I came with cash.
I brought out the money and added eight thousand
naira to it, which made the money complete.
Jaga: thank you ma guy, u do well.
I and his friends waited outside while he went in to
make the payment for his stolen goods, so i used the
opportunity in doing some introduction with his
friends.
Few minutes later, he came out with a wide grin on
his face, carrying along with him his phones and
window 8 laptop.
You guys are the best, i really appreciate all your
efforts.
We talked for a while and bid each other farewell
before we parted ways, leaving only jaga and i.
Jaga: i have some repairs to do.
Daniel: did the laptop got spoilt?
Jaga: no, not the laptop. It is my door, it was broken
by those robbers.
Daniel: really, no be small tin oh, dat means you will
have to fix it today.
Jaga: exactly, but do you know any carpenter i can
call now?
Daniel: i think so.
I asked jaga to lend me his phone since he had
airtime and called a carpenter which I was familiar
with and he promised to come on time after given
him the address.
he is on his way I told jaga.
Jaga: thats better, let him come and fix it up before
night falls.
We continued to gist about the robbery incident
which I couldn’t help but laugh when he told me he
was flogged on the buttocks for harassing one of
them, after which he left and I took a bike home.
To be continued.
