But two things spoilt Obika. He drank palm wine to excess and he was give
n to sudden and fiery anger. And being as strong as a rock, he was always inflic
ting injury on others.
Not very long ago, Obika had come from very close indeed to committing m
urder. His half-sister Efe, often came home to say that her husband had beaten h
er. One early morning she came again with her face swollen. Without waiting to h
ear the rest of the story Obika set out for Akyemfo, the village of his brotherin law. On the way he stop to call his friend, Abrabo who was never absent from
the scene of a fight. As they approach Akyemfo Obika explained to Abrabo that he
must not help in beating Efe s husband. why have you called me then Abrabo asked Ob
ika angrily to carry your bag? there may be work for you if Akyemfo people are wh
at I take them to be, they will come in full force to defend their brother. Then
there will be work for u Obika retorted.
No one in Ezelu s compound knew where Obika had gone until he returned a l
ittle before noon with Abrabo his friend. On their head was Efe s husband tied to
a bed, almost dead.
They set him down under the Ukwa tree and dared anyone to move him. The women an
d neighbors pleaded with Obika and showed him the threatening ripe fruit on the
tree which was as big as a water pot. Yes, I put him there on purpose, to be crus
hed by the fruit- the beast.
For three weeks, Ibe could barely rise from his bed. Then one evening, h
is kinsmen came to seek satisfaction from Ezelu. Because most of them had gone o
ut to their farms when the incident happened. Then the kinsman of Ibe waited pat
iently for a month seeking for someone to explain why their kinsmen should be be
aten and carried away by his brother in-law, and his friend. You should have seen
her the day she came home. Is this how you marry women in your village? If it i

COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage carefully and answer all questions that follow
As I stood by a street in Accra that late afternoon watching people rush
ing home from work, I felt very safe. My sense of security came from the fact th
at Ghanaians are generally a kind and hospitable people particularly to stranger
. Although I had just arrived from my village, I was a Ghanaian and in my own ca
pital I should not fare anything.
Just then I felt a firm grip on my arm from behind. I did not feel threa
tened: rather I was relieved. I though an old school mate must have spotted me a
nd decided to play our old game on me. I turned to look the fellow in the face b
ut the more I turned to my left the faster he moved to my right as he tightened
his grip on my wrist watch. Suddenly he let go off my arm and bolted. I saw him
vanish into the thick crowed. Certainly, this was not how to welcome a friend. P
eople of the city are surely very strange!
Totally confused, I made my way towards the lorry park to leave for my b
rother s house. In the gathering darkness, I tried to find out what time it was. T
o my utter dismay, I discovered that my wrist watch was gone. The rascal had mad
e away with it. It was gone. The rascal had made away with it. It was hardly new
or even expensive yet the vagrant found it worth stealing.
