Eagles Radio Station(108.3FM)

  The JAMB Registrar, Prof. James Adeyemi had announced  15year old  Nwanko David as the candidate with the highest jamb score, 389 out of 400. Surprisingly, he is a resident of one of the most populated slums in Lagos state, Ajegunle" Fiyin, the presenter announced.

"I never imagined that the best candidate would come from Ajcity. Sincerely, I have always thought children they do not take education serious," Susan, the co-presenter said.

"I think it's high time we discovered the stars in Slum," Fiyin said and fist bumped in the air.

"It truly is,"Susan concurred .

"Daddy!!!, I had the highest score in jamb," David shouted as he ran out of the room to join his dad who was in the verandah with the neighbours.

    His mother finally lost her life to fibromyalgia, it took a toll on him because that time he was preparing for JAMB. Never did he imagine being the best candidate, never did he.

"Really, who told you that?"his dad asked, his eyes went round.

"They confirmed it on the radio, that means I will receive the 16million naira scholarship from NSE", David squealed and jumped continuously.

  His dad looked up, his eyes glossy and wished his wife was still alive, at the same time he was happy that he listened to his first eight kids who told him to send David to school as he was bright.
  He wished the boy who gave his son money for JAMB form was alive too, he was heartbroken when David told him he was dead. His support had helped them a lot, at least they were no longer residents of the dustbin estate.
  
"Kai, baba david, this boy do you well(he has made you proud)," one of their neighbours said.

"He's the true son of his father," another one added, a smile etched on his face.

  The news spread like wild fire, different people reacted with different emotions. Some were happy while some were jealous  As they kept rejoicing, David's mind went back to how Awwal had out rightly rejected his wish to be a tout and tears welled in his eyes when he realized that Awwal wasn't there to celebrate him.

"You see, we told you he was a bright boy,"James, his oldest brother said.

"Oh my God! mother would be so happy," Martha, one of his sisters said and hugged him.

  If he had joined the gang, he would have been dead or his life would have been miserable, he wouldn't have known that he was a star, born to illuminate, a diamond born to reflect and a sun born to shine.

He looked at the blue bright sky. "Thank you Lord for sending an angel in disguise, thank you Lord for not misleading me,"

                        ********
Tender love motel, one of the cheapest motels in AJ city which stood between a school and a church had many guests today.

  Outside the motel were ladies in skimpy dresses at the beck and call of men who came to patronise them, those who had regular customers, smoked and drank beers while they awaited their arrival while others had to force themselves on men until the lucky ones are chosen.

   The inside of the motel was rough as there were men who smoked sisha with babes on their laps, by the right was a dark hallway which connected all the rooms together and in one of those rooms was Mary and her client.

"Try remove it gently, I should be home by now," Mary panicked as she wiped the sweat on her forehead.

  Mary left during choir practice after having deceived the choir master that she wasn't feeling too well. Instead, she came to meet her friend's dad in a motel so they could have  fun as usual but unfortunately penis captivus crept in and they have spent more than their stipulated one hour.

  They had shouted but the music which blared from the speakers was so loud that those in the other rooms too heard not their voices, the room suddenly became stuffy as they sweated profusely.

"You can see I am trying, my wife would be so worried. Try take my phone so I can call one of my friends," Baba Debo said.

Mary stretched her left hand to where the stool was, searched briefly for the phone until she felt it.
"Take,"she handed the itel phone to him.

"I don't know why he isn't picking up. Let me call the other one,"Baba Debo said as the sweat never stopped. The "OX" fan did nothing to help.

  He called his other friend but unfortunately, he was far away and there was only one option left, he had to call his wife who he lied to when she confronted him just two days ago.

"Baba Debo, I heard something about you and I want the truth," Mama Debo placed her hands on both sides.

"I am all ears,"

"Mama Chisom said she saw you with Mary in a romantic way yesterday night, is that true,"

"So, you believed what she said?"

"No, I fought for you but I just wanted to be sure because I noticed you are kind of close to her,"

"Haba, mary is like a daughter to me now, you know she is Deborah's friend so I wouldn't do such. I was at my friend's place yesterday night, you can call him to confirm,"

"Haba, there's no need for that. I trust you, I just didn't like the fact Mama Chisom said it in an open place so I decided to confirm,"

"That woman wouldn't just mind her business,"

"Don't mind her, one day she will meet her waterloo,"

"She will", Baba Debo said and heaved an internal sigh of relief

"Eh, I have died. Everybody in this street will know, my parents will disown me......"Mary lamented when Baba Debo told her about the last option.
  Calling his wife was the last option.

                 *****
"Shebi, I tell you that day you no answer. (I told you the other day but you turned deaf ears). Na them be this o(here they are)," Chinelo shouted.

  Mama debo was finally contacted, although she was livid but she still rushed to the motel with Deborah by her side. She tried her best to hide it but it wasn't possible as they brought the duo outside the motel which attracted onlookers and some of them took out their phones to take pictures of what they felt was terrestrial.

"So, this was why you left choir practice ehn, you have been sleeping with my own father, my own best friend,"Deborah said.

"I am sorry,"Mary apologized

"You have tarnished my image, I have always preached in church against things like this but it turned out to be that my precious daughter would be caught in the act,"Pastor Okoye bitterly complained.

  Chinelo had rushed home to call Mary's parents so they would know that their daughter wasn't a saint after all.

"Daddy, please let's just take them to the hospital. They have been here for so long,"Mary's mother appealed.

"Shut up, just shut up. This is what I have been telling you about how you pampered her just because she is the only daughter, I know you knew about her waywardness but you ignored it now look at where it led you," Pastor Okoye bellowed, the veins on his neck popped.

  Mary's mother gulped and bowed her head in shame, while her husband trudged to where Mama debo stood and they reached a consensus to take the duo to the only registered private hospital five streets away.

389? Crazy right? That's why it's called fiction🤣. Congratulations David, Awwal is super proud of you, it's just so unfortunate that you can't see him smiling like a maniac at your achievement💔

Finally, the saint is exposed. You will be like sister Mary o if you hide under religious unions just to keep your wayward life a secret. I don talk my own o.

Please RVCS😒♥️♥️♥️
