Akpors moved to a new community with his parents, and was enrolled into primary 3. On the day he resumed school, as a test, the teacher went around the room and asked each of the students to count to 50. Some did very well, counting as high as 30 or 40 with just a few mistakes. Others couldn’t get past 20.
Akpors however, did extremely well. He counted past 50, right up to 100 without any mistakes. Akpors was so excited that he ran home and told his dad how well he had done.
His Dad nodded and told him,
DAD: “That is because you are from Delta State.”
The next day, in English Language class, the teacher asked the pupils to recite the alphabet. It was Primary Three, so most of them could make it half way through without much trouble. Some made it to S or T, but Akpors rattled off the alphabet perfectly right to the end.
That evening, he once again bragged to his Dad about his ‘abilities’ in his new school. His Dad, knowingly,said to him again:
DAD: “That is because you are from Delta State.”
The next day, after Physical Education, Akpors while having shower time with his classmates, noticed that compared to the other boys in his class, he seemed overly “well endowed” down below. He was confused.
That night he told his Dad.
AKPORS: “Daddy, they all have little tiny ones, but mine is ten times bigger than their own. Is that because I am from Delta State too?”
DAD: “No, my son,” he explained, “That is because you are 18.”
