DEATH AT A FUNERAL

One cannot be so sure what was making people cry so much at the funeral of Late Mr. Death-no-fit. Could it be the way Mr. Death-no-fit died or could it be the fact that he died at his prime? Well, one cannot be so sure. "To dust we belong, and to dust we shall return." The pastor said as he started the funeral service. The father had decided to bury his son at the family tomb, and he had paid 4 Hausa guys to dig the 6 feet pit. At one end, the parents of the deceased were standing, and from the little wrinkle on their face, one could tell they are not too old, and maybe they gave birth to the deceased in their early 20s. Mere looking at the deceased's mother(Mama Okpakororo), one would know that she is a very jealous wife. Not just a jealous wife, but the type of wife that could kill her husband if she hears that her husband is having an affair with another woman.

Honestly, pastors suppose dey watch wetin dem go dey talk oooo because, kasala wey burst for the funeral that day ehn....if Mr. Death-no-fit sef know, he for no just die at all. Small time,  pastor start to dey talk about the people wey survive the deceased. "Mr. Death-no-fit is survived by father, mother, brothers, sisters, uncle, step-brother, step-sister and step-mother..." As the pastor want continue, na him Mama Okpakororo raise her hand. "Mama Okpakororo wants to say something, let's hear her." So the pastor said when he saw her hand up. "Pastor, abeg, wen u dey talk about the people wey survive my pikin, you mention STEP-BROTHER, STEP-SISTER, and even STEP-MOTHER. Pastor, abeg no be only me my husband marry? How come my pikin come dey get step-brother, step-sister, and even step-mother?." The pastor was shocked. He had forgotten he was not supposed to say that part. Pa. Okpakororo had told him about his second wife and her children. Infact, he had given the pastor some "kolanuts" in order to make sure he did not say that part, but, pastor don forget. "Madam, wahala no dey if another woman share your husband with you na." So said a voice behind Mama Opkakororo. Na so Mama Okpakororo loose the black scarf wey dey her head, tie am round her waist as she locate the woman wey just talk finish with satelite speed.
