It was that time of the year when farmers involves in cultivation of different crops are getting ready to start cultivating their farms since it was end of dry season and rainy season is fast approaching that should be between the month of March to April, my dad earlier hired some labourers to clear a portion of the land we wants to farm, so after like three days that the grasses must have dried my dad sent me to go and put fire on it so that it will burn very well before rain starts falling which i obeyed left with cutlass and a box of matches for the farm that afternoon because that was the actual time the grasses can burn very well due to the sunlight and little breeze blowing then, on my way going to the farm I saw one of my friend who volunteered accompanied me to the farm after pleading with him, so when we got there i quickly use stick to push and gather of the grass in different spot before putting the fire and me and my friend starts watching over it, suddenly i became press due to the food i eat before coming out then decided to use the nearby bush as toilet and I ask my friend to watch over the fire so that I can ease myself.

Behold when I was excreting I heard my friend shouting and calling my name that the fire has become uncontrollable for him that I should come and assist him, I have no option than to stand up clean my buttocks with fresh leave in place of tissue paper and rush to join him, when I got there the fire has almost cross to the next farm because of the sun and breeze blowing the fire, though at that moment I was totally confused and troubled because the pressure in me was much and I was just contemplating on what to do then, that moment the fear and anxiety in me increased to a high level assive ground should just open let me enter because all what was on my mind was what will I tell my dad and even the people whose farm got destroyed at this point immediately I gained courage and I decided to face my fears by attacking the fire with fresh leaves and palm branches which helps me succeed in overcoming the fire after all the struggle and stress thank God almighty that I was able to regain myself and also stop the fire from spreading around.
After and during the drama and incident that took place in the farm my friend help in taking some pictures with my phone that I gave him to hold for me which am using as evidence to anyone gives a doubt to what happened in the farm that day, and again thanks almighty that the problem didn't to extended further rather it ended where it started.
