...as he lifted his face.Ezeka gasped under his breath on seeing the mans face."Ogbuagu?" he blurted."No." the youmg man said devoid of emodition."No am his son".The men of Umuichi quieted down and gazed at the man."You killed my father" he said matter~of~factly "after killing Ezenna right?" You can justify it all you want,but know this; I will kill you the first instance i get the oppurtunity.Ezeka looked at his immobile legs and smiled "You cant do it"....

Ezeka expected the man to retort back at him but he apparently was a man of less words and more action as he just bent his head again and kept mute.That was when he knew the man meant business.He spoke all manner of obsenities to the men of Ugwumba but the man didn't look up again as his fathers men continued haggling insults with the men of Umuichi.
.....
Agu tried to pull himself up from the mat but his body felt as heavy as lead.'Something was clearly wrong' he thought.

Loading...

How could Ikemba have made that coward Ukaji their prime minister,he thought bitterly.Ever since last night his wife had told him how Ikemba had made himself chief without a coronation,and how Ukaji was made prime minister he smelt foul play.And when finally, he had heard that some warriors of Akwuna were still in Ugwumba to enforce the new decrees he knew Ukaji was definitely Ikembas lap dog.He gritted his teeth when he remembered how quickly Ukaji had succumbed,and bowed to Ikemba.

Loading...

'That ambitious cow' Agu thought 'I will teach him to...'his train of thought was derailed as intense pain tore through his leg and he let out an involuntary scream of pain.He had attempted to lift his leg off the mat but the pain was unbearable.The flap to his door was raised as his wife tore into his hut."my husband,what is it?" she inquired.Agu groaned quietly and shook his head signifying that nothing was wrong.His wife nodded and left the hut unconvinced

Loading...

Ukaji walked around in his small hut restlessly.Ikemba thought he could double cross him without repurcussions.But he would show him that he,Ukaji was not a novice in such matters.He would create a vast army and conquer Akwuna then he would be regarded as the greatest chief in the history of Ugwumba.He smiled at his thoughts,indeed Amadioha was with him.
.....
Nduka was slowly drinking the palm wine in front of him.He was there in body,but his mind was elsewhere.

I, Olaiyadoam, 'in charge of popcorn and drinks'.. I'm highly honoured bro, i've been a loner on nairaland all this while but thank God for you.
.
Now to mah truthful comment,
Hmhm, i just caught up with you guys.
So firstly, i must confess you're doing a great work over here.
.
<sips pepsi>
.
Hmhmhm, I think Ezeka is going to have to join hands with Ogbuagu's son to defeat Ikemba. For Ukaji, kai, great suffering/punishment awaits him.
But the people of Ugwumba have to think wisely and act fast most especially Ezeka.

Tankio bro.
For your analysis ehhnn....make we dey watch sha.

He was thinking about his 3 sons who had gone to battle.He hoped they were safe."Oh gods of my fathers gone" he prayed "keep them safe".He drunk from his drinking horn and shaked his head to steady his vision.'My sons in captivity' he thought shaking his head.'All because of the useless war instigated by those riff-raffs from Umuichi,my sons are being held by Ikemba'.Immediately the name Ikemba crossed his thoughts,he dropped his drinking horn.

Loading...

He would have exploded with hate and anger had it been possible.'He killed Ogbuagu and blamed it on Ezeka.Then he came here and installed himself our chief.As if that was not enough he made a timid Ukaji who could not talk the prime minister.Ukaji of all people that would run from a dog's bark.And almost killed Agu...' at the remembrance of Agu he could have killed anything near him.He remembered how Onowu had stepped in and saved Agu."No!!" he thought aloud "Ikemba must not go free".

Loading...

He heard his wife get up from her mat inside and shuffle her feet to the door.He heard right,as his wife stepped outside looking like someone who saw a ghost."My husband" she courtesied "please must you speak your thoughts aloud? That man has his men in our village and last i checked,the walls had ears,please..."
"Shut up woman." he replied coldly "Last i checked i was the head of this house and could say what i wanted without a womans interruption".

Loading...

Thanks for the update OP

She kept quiet and went back inside quietly without objection because she knew her husband would not had replied her as such on a normal day.Nduka continued with his thoughts till about midnight when he made up a plan.For the first time that day,he smiled.'Surely,our brothers and sons shall be avenged' he smiled again and got up for bed.
.......
Ezeka was still asleep when he received a kick on his head.He was about to shout in anger when he felt a pair of rough hands pull him up.

Loading...

As if that was not enough,water was poured on his face and the sleepiness fled from his eyes.He finally opened his eyes and saw Urasi and the men from yesterday."Ikemba will now speak to you"Urasi said and turned to leave.'About time...'Ezeka thought aloud as the men dragged him along.
......
Ikemba was sharpening his sword in front of Ezeka's hut when he noticed Urasi coming his way.The day was still breaking as the roosters crowed all about.He stood up from his position and...

Loading...

...made for Ezeka's throne.He sat down and waited.The men dragged Ezeka to him and let him slump to the ground at Ikemba's feet."You..."Ezeka began.But Ikemba cut him short with a knock to the head."Thats no way to greet your king"Ikemba smiled sweetly.

Hmhmhm, things are getting more tensed.
Ikemba is making more enemies than friends, i'm sure his end is going to be a sour one. He pisses me off..

That's weird, try typing it on your phone note and copy and paste after that what others do

"My king?"Ezeka growled "You can only fantasize about being on that throne but you will never get it"Ikemba straightened himself on the throne and said "Looks like am the one on the throne from my point of view".He looked at his men and quirked his eyebrow.The men looked at each other as realization dawned on their face.They burst into an awkward laughter as the realized that Ikemba had just cracked a joke.Looking content,he came down from the throne and squatted behind Ezeka.

Loading...

"I will be taking you back to Akwuna with me.Along with few of your men.Dont worry..."he added hastily as Ezeka meant to speak up "I will take the men of Ugwumba as well".Ezeka looked up at Ikemba clearly fuming."For what reason..."."Ohh! thats true....well you people will be tried for starting a war in our peaceful region..."
"What nonsense!"Ezeka barked "you must be out of your mind if you think we the people of Umuichi are respon..."the speech was cut short as Ikemba backhanded him...

Loading

"Dont you EVER interrupt me again.Is that understood?" he asked standing up.Ezeka nodded."You talk when you are to answer me,you swine" he said and gave Ezeka a kick on the left ear.Ezeka held himself from shouting out and make Ikemba happy."Yes,chief" he groaned.He had added chief to avoid getting another kick from Ikemba."Now as i was saying before you rudely interrupted me,i will take you and the best of your men -likewise with the Ugwumba's- and you all shall be tried in Akwuna.."

...Any tribe found to be guilty shall be sold as slaves to the men with white skins.( white men)"
"That was your plan all along wasn't it? Intervene and sell us all as slaves for a few pieces of cowries".
"Well,i wouldn't say it is a few pieces of cowry.It should be more like a few bags of cowries" with that he laughed aloud and went into Ezeka's hut."You...!!"
He started as the men picked him up and started dragging him back to the prison.After Ezeka had been tied up,Urasi turned and...
