Sometimes, it’s what
you are looking for that you get. Prof sat at his favourite corner of the room
and wondered if all that was happening is real. The year where the apocalypse was
about to begin was approaching. The year where all the tribes of the great
country Nigeria will decide enough is enough of one country. He feared the
victorious uprising of the Biafrans and what the Niger Deltans will do.
This
seems worse than the civil war of 1966. This was different; it had the backings
of the spirits of the Niger. The great nation was about to fall and he was the
only good person who knew it.
The mere thought of
this responsibility was driving him insane. Who would he tell about a pact with
the devil to almagamate the country? Who would believe he saw demons? His wife
and children had left him. He was going insane but Prof wasn’t mad; he was
crazy. He wanted to abort his destiny because he was scared. He fasted and
prayed till his mouth began to stink but there was no answer. The devil mocked
but forgot that God has a great plan for the country, Nigeria.
