The Chronicles Of Rochas, The Son Of Okorocha by sirkaebs: 6:38pm On Oct 26, 2017 |
1. And it came to pass that a
certain Governor from the East by
the name Rochas the son of
Okorocha who ruleth over the
province of Imo, sent a
messenger to the kingdom of the
Southern country of Africa.
2. And he said to the messenger,
in this manner shall ye speak to
the king, "long live the king! thou
art highly favoured in the the
eyes of my Governor, even
among the people of the
province of Imo, therefore come
this day to meet me in my
kingdom that though mayest be
honoured"
3. And the messenger did
according to the words of the
Governor.
4. And it came to pass that the
king of the Southern country of
Africa by the name, Jacob the son
of Zuma, entered into the
province of Imo, even into the
city of Oweri, the dwelling place
of the Governor.
5. And Rochas the son of
Okorocha made a great feast and
prepared a banquet before the
son of Zuma that night. And he
called all the noble men of the
province to meet in his Palace,
even in the court of the
governor, they made merry.
6. The Governor hath also hired
men of craft that they made a
giant graven image of Jacob, the
son of Zuma. And the height of
the image thereof was ten cubit
and two span , and the weight
thereof was equals two
thousand measure of brass. And
the garment thereof was that of
the noble men of the West.
7. And he placed the graven
image at the Centre of the city of
Oweri. And unto Zuma, the king
of the Southern country of Africa,
was a title given which was
higher above any other in the
province of Imo. Also, the
Governor nameth a street of the
city after him. These was the
manner with which king Zuma
was honoured.
8. All these things happened on
the tenth month of the sixth year
that Rochas the son of Okorocha
reigned as Governor over the
province of Imo.
9. But it came to pass that when
it was told the people that the
Governor hath spent five
hundred and thirty million
shekels of gold and silver for the
graven image of Jacob, the son
of zuma that they were wroth
with anger.
10. And it grieved the labourers
of the province and they took
counsel among one another and
saith, but how shall this thing
be? Is Jacob the son of Zuma also
among the righteous men?
11. Howbeit that the son of Zuma
was honoured in this manner in
the province of Imo? Is not he
the same king that dealeth
dishonourably in the manner
that he spent the gold and silver
from the treasury of his country?
Is not he that the magistrate put
a charge against for taking
bribe?
12. Is not it under the reigns of
this king that his people
persecute our brethren who
dwelleth in their country and
even put many to death and
rendered their businesses
desolate?
13. Howbeit the Governor treat
us with great disdain? For we
laboureth for over ninety days
without wages and he said unto
us "be thou of long suffering for
there is no gold and silver in the
treasury that I may pay thee thy
wages". And yet he spent millions
of shekels to honour the son of
Zuma.
14. And the head of the
labourers declared according to
these words unto the people
saying, "arise this day and gird
thy loins for we shall march
across the city of Owerri, even
unto the gate of the Governor.
15. And they marched across the
city and declared according to
this words unto the Governor,
"thou dealeth treacherously with
us in the manner thou sayeth
'there is no gold and silver in the
treasury that I may pay thee thy
wages'. Wherefore thou
honoureth the son of Zuma with
so much riches from the
treasury?
16. This thing shall ye do, O
Governor: remove the graven
image of Jacob the son of Zuma
from the city that there might be
peace in the land".
17. And the Governor replied
them in this manner. "Harken
unto my voice o ye inhabitants of
the land. I shall not be careful in
the manner with which I
answereth thee on this matter.
19. Go back to thy tents, for I,
even the son of Okorocha hath
repenteth not that I made a
graven image of Jacob the son of
Zuma. For many more of this
statues shall ye see in the city of
Owerri in the days ahead".
20. And the people lamented and
said "woe unto us! behold, the
evil spirit from the devil hath
entered into the Governor." And
yet many saith, "verily verily, the
Governor is afflicted with
insanity."
21. But the Governor doeth not
according to the words of the
labourers, for unto this day, the
statue of Jacob the son of Zuma
remaineth in city of Owerri and
the labourers returned to their tents. 2 Likes |
