Part7:****************(flash back)*******************
I met mr badu he was one of these politicians very rich. I got his company for casual job. To cut the long story short I was signed into duty as a security man, he has large business company at oworonshoki where cements are being sold.
***
I never met him in person in fact he doesn’t show up in the company. But the day I knew him in person; it started when I start working though the wages was low but I had no other choice, I kept on working day by day I will always be at my post observing the going in and going out.
***
Most of these companies loses or let me put it this way, the people managing the company are the onces embezzling money (money lotters)I observed a lot where cements are being stolen out of the company under no radar about 4trailers everyday.
This made me angry always, I was the one opening the gate for lotters I was aware of all activities in that company. They don’t even bother to try to bribe me, all they do is command me a whole soldier of the federal republic of Nigeria.
******
This went on and on for more than 2years, I kept quiet cos I know what it would cost me if I should expose them. I have made up my mind that I would never say a word no matter what happen in order to keep my job.
************************************(one specific day)*****************************************
It was the dark hours of that day, as usual. They all gathered together as they all filled two trucks with cements so they began to share money among themself then the quarrel started.
Manager: I have told you to wait till tomorrow I will transfer the rest of it.
Staff 1: no! no!! No way this is what you told me last month and you didn’t send any dime now you are trying same thing again.
Staff 2:my money must complete matured today I wouldn’t such too again.
Manager:so you have all gang up to oppose me right?
Staff 3:sir you know say you owe me 100k pay it today or else thing will fall apart.
Manager:oh!!! OK no money for anybody no you driver go deliver the goods and inform me when you get there.
Driver:OK boss
*****
I question quickly came out of my small room and I opened the gate then he drove off. All the staffs began to murmur,he ignored them and he walked back into the building few minutes later they all came out and they signed out. You should have seen the cars most of them were using nothing less than 10million different set of cars.
NEXT DAY
***
MANAGER’S OFFICE
——————–
they began to shout at each other…
Staffs:you mean you wouldn’t pay us right???
Manager: I will let you all know that I am the head here, besides I introduced you to these business.
Accountant: oh as you can see you have been doing this a long time ago, but I am saying no this time.
Manager:you look here leave my office before I descend on you.
Accountant: boss must ear this.
Staffs:(chorus answer) yes !!!
Manager:then he will sack everybody and he can never sack me.
Staffs: oh,OK we shall see. Let’s go

They all left his office with anger on their faces. But the manger still insist on punishing them all because of mare cash. You see if the devil has been using you for a long time and you keep on letting him use you he will definitely destroy your life or collect what is precious to you.
