Akpors'father
accompanied him
to his school end of the
year
award party.
As they sat watching and
amidst
great shouts and loud
ovations,
the beneficiaries were
called to
the podium for their
award
presentation.
The following
conversation
ensued:
Announcer: Best student in
sciences, the winner is
Inem.
Father: (Applause and eyes
Akpors
scornfully) see correct
children!
Announcer: Best student in
commercial studies, the
winner is
Ajoke.
Father: (Hisses and eyes
Akpors)
see correct children.
Announcer: Best student in
Arts
and the winner is Helen.
Father: (fuming with
anger) See
correct children!!.
And so, all the awards
were
presented without any
going to
Akpors.
At the end of the event,
they left
and went to the car park
but as
his dad made to start the
car, the
engine refused to respond.
He opened the bonnet and
touched a few things but
all to no
avail.
Then they resorted to
pushing
and just as they got to the
exit of
the school the rickety car
parked
up.
Exhausted and profusely
sweating, Akpors rested
on the
gate just as his mates
were
driving off with their
parents in
Hummer jeep, Sequia,
Infinity,
Escalade, Bentley, Lincoln
Nav and
other exotic cars.
All of a sudden, Akpors
burst into
laughter.
His puzzled father
asked,'what's
so funny?'
Amidst teary eyes Akpors
responded'SEE CORRECT
FATHERS!
