Is this foolishness or smartness
A friend of mine, keep back from epkoma last week, and he told me and my brother that we have event to go for the weekend, that his former landlord of the house he was staying in Benin before he got admission to school in ekpoma which is usually know as ekp.
So at first I told me, that I wont be chance, that was due to financial issues, but before the main day of the event, someone gave me money, so I told him that I will go alone with them.
Trust be told, even if I don't have transport to go, my friend and my brother are good to go that is they can even sponsor me without it shaking them, but I don't want to be a burden or something, to cut the long story short, we decide to go to the place, the transport fare to go and come was just #300. So we all took a bus to new Benin, my guy paid for us, so he said that the want to go and see the landlady of the house, and also go to his work place b4 going for the burial, we all agreed, so we took another bus again, same amount #300 which my friend pay for, so after see the landlady, we decided to go to ring road, and then I decide to pay for the 3 of us, so I paid, on our way coming back my junior brother paid the transport fare, so we then decided to go for the burial ceremony and as at this time. It already 4pm. So on our way to the event center, my friend redraw 5k so that he can spray for the event. So when we got there we went to the canopy of the lady who invited my friend, and she serve us food and drink, and after which we waited to spray her. By this time, my friend has already changed the money to notes, why my junior brother came prepared, so he change 3k, I was the only one who didn't change, but I know my brother and my friend won't leave me hanging, so my friend gave me 1k to change, so it was the time for the people will came to see to dance at her father funeral. Trust be told, the lady didnt regard us that well compare to her other guest, but yet we didn't mind, so when it was time for we to spread, me, my brother and friend came out to spray, I just spray mine and went to sit down, while my brother and my friend was still spraying, they also do transfer for those people changing money, so they continue spraying, after they are done, my friend signal the girl that we are leaving, so we left the place on getting to where we are going to take bus, we saw a lot of crowd waiting for buses, and this only happens when raining is falling or when they is hold up on the way. So my friend went to pos to withdrawal money, so that he can use for transport and also for movement the other day, which was Sunday, so after he collect the money, we were waiting for motor, no motor going to our direction was fort coming, so I suggest we move up ward, because normal we have 2 places we can enter the vehicle on a normal day, 1 side is #100, and the other side charge #200.
So we move up ward we saw a vehicle and the driver said #300 per person. My friend and my brother was complaining that it on the high side, and besides no rain fell, so I told them that we should enter, that I don't mind hanging on the motor, because i know that it will get to a time, we won't see any motor, or it will be up to #500 by then. They said no it too high, and I said OK, since I don't have any money on me.
So my brother said we should wait for some time, and it already 6:40, my friend has 2 new android phone with him, so. He said that we should be walking, so after we waited for some minute no motor was coming again, so we started trelking. My friend couldn't trek because he was put on shoe, so he decided to buy slippers which cost him #350.
The place was very far, I know that it possible to trek but it will take out time, it like 3 hours Journey. So aftee we trek for some minute, my friend complained of muscle pool, and I complain I was getting tired, my brother was motivated us. So we kept on going, so we all decided that once we get to a particular place we are going to stop, and when we get there, we saw a suya spot, my brother went there to price it and they agreed on a price, so my brother brought out 1k, my friend add #500 so they bought the sugar for #1,500. And I told them why didn't then enter the motor, they said that it was quite expensive that the driver wants to exhort them, and beside the suya will be for our nourishment and I said no pro. So we all ate the suya, and waited for some minute to see if we can see a vehicle, as we were waiting, we saw a danfo motor which was empty, then we hop in an many other people also hop in, that was how we saw a free motor after eating the suya,😂
Some how he spent the money he didn't want to spend, I think he decided to stress him self.
