I Need Your Advice....What should I Do Now?
dvise Me
“The fact that I risked my life
as an armed robber whose achievements include robbing a bank successfully made
the tears flow out the more as I looked at the only property I had left from my
years as a thief go up in flames. It was a gruesome experience that actually
turned my life around. The fire was caused by an electrical fault and it was
fueled by the 50-liter gallon of petrol I stored in my bathroom. It was at that
point that I came to realize that what the Pastor always preached in church was
the truth”.
And as the man continued his
testimony on the Television show, my daughter came into the sitting room to
tell me that the Landlord was at the door and has demanded I came out. I looked at her and thought of telling her to
tell him to come in while I continued watching the interesting testimony of the
Robber turned Pastor came to me but I didn’t ; I only managed to say Ok to make
her have a response for the unwelcomed visitor who my landlord was.
As the former robber continued, I
marveled at the turn around and wanted to find out how he came to turn a new
leaf. That was the part I was waiting to hear when suddenly my landlord barged
into the sitting room with two policemen behind him. It was then I realized
that the threat of evicting me was real and indeed it seemed this was the end
for me.
“Chief, but I told you to give me
some more time”, I said to my Landlord who refused to look at me. He was fuming
with anger. However, before I could say anything further, one of the policemen faced
me and presented a paper to me which he claimed was an eviction order from the
court.
“Officer, we can settle this
thing between…”
“Settle kini? Officer, please do
your work and stop listening to this him”, my Landlord cut me short as I tried
to call for a form of truce.
“Chief, but I thought I explained
the exact situation of things to you”
“That is not my business, I want
you get out of my house, shey na story I go chop?”
