Hunger In The Land Family Disgraced For Stealing Pot Of Soup In Abuja by Slynonny(m): 6:32pm On Aug 10, 2016 |
Serious hunger has pushed a man to steal a pot of soup so that his starving children can have something to eat. It was a show of shame as a man and his two children were nabbed after they allegedly stole a pot of 'Ogbono' soup » which one of their neighbours was cooking in the Mpapae area of Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory. According to eyewitnesses, the incident which happened along Mashafa road in the area, threw everyone in shock after the owner of the stolen soup identified only as Femi, was stunned to find out that the steaming pot of soup he had left on the fire had gone missing » after he stepped into his house to get some salt. He decided to go round some of his neighbour's apartments to see if anyone of them had seen who took his soup, only to find the man and his children eating the Ogbobo soup. Narrating what he saw, Femi said he was too stunned to say a word at first but watched as the family ate the soup with 'fufu' they must have brought along with them. “I was cooking in the compound and went into the room to get salt; that was when they took the pot of soup and before I could ask, they were already eating the soup with their akpu. I was even touched after the father apologised, saying they were hungry and had nothing to eat." "I had no choice than to leave them with it, but they should not have taken everything. The thing pained me seriously because I am also managing and had to look for the money for that soup and they just took everything. I only told them to return the pot after they had helped themselves with its content." pulse.ng/gist/hunger-in-the-land-family-disgraced-for-stealing-pot-of-soup-in-abuja-id5330359.html |

Na wa o! You will never hear these disheartening stories in the rural areas. There is sympathy in the rural areas, people don't sleep under bridges in the village, nobody run after buses, nobody steals. Youth Corp members, and complete strangers sometimes get free accommodation in the rural places because the people are compassionate. What am I driving at? The cities should be depopulated. Many people struggle to pay rent in the city, yet they have free and empty family houses in the village, coupled with free and large acres of farm land. It is better to live large as a farmer in the village, than steal ogbono soup in the city. Something needs to be done, especially now that globalisation has broken all the communication gaps. With ordinary N10,000 DSTV, you can stay in the village, run your e-business, and KNOW much more about everything than those in Aso Rock. The NOA should engage in a serious orientation. |
