MMESO INSPIRES

Mmeso Inspires: Ojiugo

I am in love with the king…

don’t ask me why?

If you look Olamma, you will see that King Omekagu is a handsome man.

He is strong and hard-working, kind-hearted and humble to the core.

What else does a pretty virgin like me desire in a man?

Many seasons have I witnessed, but my love for King Omekagu remains evergreen like the flowers by the riverside.

I have traveled around our neighboring villages…

I have traveled to Umugegbe, the village with the best of good looking men but none stole my heart the way King Omekagu did…

Tell me Olamma, did he cast a spell on me?

Anytime I close my eyes to sleep, all I see is King Omekagu.

Whenever you see me smiling, he is the one on my mind.

Whenever you see me adorning my self with the best of apparels, I am going to the palace to see him though I always pretend as if it was the princess I come to see.

Olamma, can’t you see that I am trying so hard to win his heart?

Okwi is the richest farmer in our village but he has a big head.

Nwafor is the most successful young man in our village but he is round in nature.

If you look closely Olamma, you will see that I am a beautiful damsel.

Did you see how beautiful my curves are?

Did you see how straight and hairy my legs are?

I need a handsome man to complement my beauty and King Omekagu fit into the category.

Ojiugo my friend, I know you are foolish and selfish but I never knew it was to such an extent.

While your mates are going to the city to search for greener pastures, you are glued to the village, thinking of how to be the tenth wife of King Omekagu.

You boast of your beauty?, are you more beautiful than Azuka or Ego?

Even if King Omekagu is interested in taking a new wife, you are not in the picture.

Ojiugo, what did you think you are to call my brother a big head?

Let me remind you, though his head is big, It is full of wisdom unlike yours that is empty like Nworie’s barn.

If you like, beautify yourself to win the king, he will never fall to your whim and caprice.

Have you heard that Azuka, the prettiest maiden in our village is working in the village clinic and the king has been ill for sometime now.

Can’t you see the link?

Did you think the king will choose you over her?, Impossible!

Stop living in your past glory Ojiugo, wise up!

*Three weeks later, King Omekagu joined his ancestors in his sleep*
