Like a trapped lion in search of freedom, ferociously left NBA Enugu to NBA Nsukka, only to meet AOB.
But the leadership and members of NBA Nsukka, graciously allowed us to consult with them. All aspirants in attendance, skated round their ambitions, poked at the parcel without opening it.
Members of NBA Nsukka, using the eyes of elected looked into the sag, aptly telling the difference between chicken and vulture.
It was refreshing and their faces shone with gladness, when I, Felix Chukwuma Ashimole chose to address them in igbo, my native language. The Chairman reluctantly allowed me with a mild caution that there are non-igbo speakers in attendance.
So I laced my English with Igbo as unto native law and custom!
Another speaker reminded the august visitors that an Edo indigene practicing within NBA Nsukka jurisdiction, had been the Chairman of the Branch.
Like newly reconciled and reacquainted lovers, we had stimulating engagement and the wonderful members of NBA Nsukka received us and our padded messages.
Freshly tapped palm wine was lavishly served us but since we have a windy road ahead of us back to Enugu, we gentlemanly kissed the cup as though we were taking holy communion wine from the blessed chalice.
