mind" what if she tell her husband" or "what if my boss sacks me".
Shout of "were ni eni" " u wan kill person abi " from an okada man and
his passenger brought me back to reality and I immediately stopped the
car" oh God help me I said. I re started the car and drove for a few
minutes before getting home, on getting to the living room I received
a text message from an unknown number and it reads "I WILL DEAL WITH
YOU".
It's been three years and six months that have been searching for a
job after my youth service, after our graduation in the university I
was very confident that I was going to land a big job because I
graduated with a 4.10cgpa in economics, but I was struck with the
reality when I got to camp and found out that there are lots of people
with stronger 2.1 than mine in same economics although from other
schools. So there I was after my youth service no job and no money to
even start up little business pending the time how get a job, all I do
is wake up in the morning, get something to eat go to the newspaper
reading spot in my area to argue politics and football then check for
vacancy adverts. Sometimes I go to the café to gist with some of my
fellow jobless guys over there and also to submit my cv to job sites.
On Thursday morning I did my normal daily rooting and then straight to
the newspaper spot. the first paper I opened had job adverts mostly
for engineers and science related courses, the second had a mixture of
both science and other disciplines .then i noticed a small advert down
the page took all the needed information from the newspaper page and
left. then I went home to re adjusted my cv to sooth the job types
then I sent them through mail. Few days later I got two invitations
for interviews , the first companies was to conduct theirs the next
day while the second company was to hold theirs next weefast forward.
Hanging up the phone I ran out into the compound of our house and was
dancing shoki shoki, shoki shoki shoki.people around started laughing
at me they asked why I was dancing and I told them I just got a job
that news made everyone to join in the dance .i was all smiles
throughout the day, I was to resume work the next day .on getting to
work the next day I met the other guys that were newly employed just
like me some I remembered I saw at the venue of the interview.we were
all excited and ready to work that was when I was told that I was
assigned as an pa to one of the top managers in the company Mr shittu
and I was very happy about it.I met Mr shittu later that day and we
got along really well, he was a nice man and very funny too.
Work was fun over next couple of months ,I was payed well and got
along very well with everyone at work. one day my boss called me to
his office and told me his on his way out that should i take care of
every other thing for the day, he told me he needed to get home to
assist his wife for the preparation of their son 5th birthday party. I
was really surprised that my boss could leave work for such a
reason,but sha na him be oga naw me no fit try that kind tin
although I never marry . before going he told me I shouldn't miss the
party for anytin in the world, I told him infact that I would be the
first person to get there on that Saturday.although I dnt know what
was awaiting me but I just had a strange feeling about the birthday on
Saturday.
