MEN OF GOLD DON'T WEAR GOLD

Yesterday I had to visit somewhere and it was raining, so I did not want to drive there since I was not too familiar with the road, so I parked my car somewhere close and used a Keke (local tricycle).

While I was there I got a call from a long time friend reminding me of my promise to her husband over a job, so I quickly told her my location, and asked her to tell her husband to meet me up ASAP since I will be leaving town soon, but I told her to tell her husband to meet me up where I packed my car since that place was a popular land mark.

Truth is that I don’t know her husband and we have never met before. As I sent her the address, she called me back and was so excited that I was even around her area which will make it easy for him because he did not even have transport to come out, things was that bad. So I told her that he should pick a drop and I will pay.

In other not to keep him stranded I had to start rushing back to where I packed my car. God, I even entered under the rain and cold, just to meet up with him so he will not be stranded. As I was walking under the rain I saw a Keke and stopped it. The Keke driver asked me to beg the man inside because he is on drop, so I started begging. The man refused and said I was wet. I told him I will sit one side, and he refused, saying except I pay for both his fare and mine.

I agreed, then he allowed me. As I entered, this man kept me completely uncomfortable, threatening if my wet clothes touch him again I will get down. I just kept my cool until I finally got to my destination. I did not even reach until I stopped at the junction and paid then used my legs to walk to my car, since it was very close.

I was inside my car warming myself, when I got a call from my friend saying her husband was around, so I described my car and he came. I saw someone knocked on my car glass, wound down and it was this same man in a Keke with me. Gosh!

I was suppose to pay the keke man for the drop he took, and recommend him for a job? Tears rolled down my eyes — how can this man who is looking for a favour from a stranger he has not met before, be so unkind to another stranger who needed his little favour too,— I brought out N3,000, gave him, started my car and zoomed off. My friend has been calling and sending me messages, I had to block her.

Be careful, many times for Men of gold don’t wear gold. Be nice.
Happy new month. Good bless you all and have a pleasant week ahead
