DARKEST DAWN A story written by Oche Jeremiah. EPISODE III "Where are you going?” shouted a dark ugly man with dreadlocks on his head. He was dressed in rags. "I was sent by the good Master to give this parcel to Anthony who is a faithful servant to him" replied the man on ash of whom I felt was either an angel or a messenger. "Noooooooooo, you can't pass. It doesn't belong to him. It can ne-----verrrrr belong to him. He can't have it because he’s not in the position to get it" replied the ugly man. "But why??” He has been praying for it and the Master has specifically sent me to go and deliver it to him" replied the angel. "You dare argue with me?? I said he can't have it.” Anthony is only meant to have sorrows upon sorrows. No good thing must come his way. Now give me the parcel and get out of here" “Yes I will” said the messenger and handed over the parcel to him and turned to go. Disappo...

DARKEST DAWN A story written by Oche Jeremiah and published on ochejeremy.blogspot.com EPISODE 2 ******* Anthony came to my house after I sent for him. I was really pregnant with words to lash at him. For crying out loud he is not a baby. He must fend for himself. When he came in, his looks were pitiable already. I knew he had been crying all that time. To be frank, Anthony was one of the honest guys I’ve ever come in contact with. He was faithful in tasks you gave to him. There was a time I gave him 70k to help me rush to the bank and send to one of my friends in Lagos and he did it without any problem. Many times I have assigned him to different tasks and he did them without me having any Issue at all. I truly feel for him. He's told me how he has tried to get something doing but it doesn't work out. He had tried a business before but his shop went in flames after doing a restock of goods to full capacity. Since that time he's just been managing....

DARKEST DAWN A story written by Oche Jeremiah. EPISODE 1 ********** ...That morning, Ajike woke the entire compound up with her very ferocious knocks on my door as well as her ranting noise. Her knocks and livid comments could pull down the whole building if it were a bulldozer. "Kpam kpam kpam" she knocked. I knew I was in serious trouble. I had promise to pay her for the beans and garri I bought on credit two days ago. I was actually expecting some money so I thought it'll come as I have promised but till now it has not come. The more I thought in my room, the louder her knocks and "open this door you shameless man" became. Neighbours were already getting so used to my buying on credit attitude that made the foodstuff sellers come to the compound to request for their money amidst shouts and outrageous outbursts. I summoned up courage to go get the door. As I opened the door, the slap that greeted me turned my face the other directio...

DARKEST DAWN A story written by Oche Jeremiah 08103402961 Introduction Hello Mr. Anthony, good morning. “Good morning to you too. Hope you slept well?” O Yes I did. Lest I forget, the president will like to have a chat with you by 2pm this afternoon. Hope you are not too busy and engaged today? “No, I can’t be busy for the number one citizen of the country. I am an ambassador here so I must respect the office of the president of the nation as well, just as I want my own president to be respected. Its okay by me. I’ll be at the presidential metropolis by 1:30pm”. O thank you Mr. Anth. He is looking forward to seeing you by 2. Do have a pleasant day ahead. That was from the office of the president.

Truly he has being like a father to me. When I look at where I started...

Her Searching Voice, My Ultimate Discovery  A conversational discourse between a father and his daughter.  Daddy, is it right to restrict people from doing what they want to do especially as they have grown up?  Will it not be totally wrong to always tell your precious daughter that she cannot do this or do that even when you know others are doing it without been harmed or stopped?  Why are teenagers often subjected to such bondage of taste not, touch not and the likes?  We can’t visit friends, friends cannot visit us, we can’t move about, we can’t even explore our own environment because you our parents will not allow us. Is that really fair dad?  Why can we not be trusted? We must we have parents who have given birth to us but who never believe that we don’t have something evil or negative off our sleeve?  If we make calls in your presence, you will ask who we were talking to. If we receive calls, you keep monito...

Grace Plaine I sat there baffled by the world I found myself. Such cruelty can only be described by experiences. It's bitter chuddle can only be said in few words. For of a truth, it kills than the sword. I sat down to allow my heart gather momentum. It gathered heaviness that was heavier than the truck of heaviness. Did I chose my fate?  Can I accept what i did not chew?? I was made that way. Quiet as I might seem, I had my own reservations. We were nicknamed introverts because we were truly controversial.  Who will understand my unmistakable nature? Who will embrace me without questioning my fears?  That was my tale in confusion land. I held it high till it exploded like a major crisis. I couldn't button it up again due to it's pressure. No one came close and no one brought a close to it. Now in convinced I'm in a world where I have to be responsible for my demeanors. That darkness was thick.  Within my darkness came his penetra...

Someone wants to tell us a story to illustrate this. Read to the end. You'll be glad you did. Hmmmmmmm OMG😤😤😤😤 Is this my life??? What a pity. I still cant say how i got myself into this strange puzzle. How did I land myself into this mud??? How will I be a king that has recorded tremendous success yet my family is in disarray. I've lost three of my sons because of my foolishness. I lost the eldest who indeed would have taken over from me. Now I've lost the most handsome of them all.

That evening, I had just delegated my powers as the commander in chief to my captain. I asked him to represent me in the battle wh...
