Chapter 52: Fight



However the kid on his leg remained there, as David smiled and shoke his head. With a gentle pull. He separated the kid from him then squated down to his level.

"Go and meet your mother, if you want food stay there" David said before turning away and focusing on the trunk of the car

Out of fear, the kid too ran to him mother. David saw this and couldn't blame the child. He didn't know how to exactly handle children well.

However choosing to ignore that, he immediately began to pull out the bags containing the food from the trunk. The first bag was immediately carried to the woman that the child had ran towards.

"I doubt this will help much in your situation but this should at least help get rid of the hunger for now" David said as he handed over the bag.

"Ahoga1, Thank you oo" the woman said as the others in the area began to gather

Seeing that David was giving out food, a whole new round of chaos began as the people began shouting and dragging him all over the place just to get theirs.

"Hey!!, hey!! Hey!!"

David heard several shouts which immediately dwarved all the other sounds. Turning to the source, he saw them, the young men whose age range was probably from 18 to 25.

Their shouts immediately brought order to the place as the women and their children created a path as they came forward.

[Sir are you sure, you don't want to rethink your stance on the paramilitary]

"Get me a compound" David answered looking at the boys.

Normally he would say that they were just good citizens who saw him in trouble and decided to help but he wasn't born yesterday.

These were the local boys, thugs or as Nigerians call them 'Agbero'. The people didn't separate from him or create a path because they wanted to or just wanted to obey.

"Omo" na army man we go jam"

David heard several people shout as the man slowly rolled off the car to reveal a large dent in its hood. This immediately sent shock into their hearts as quiet reigned through the streets.

"If you still want to continue this fight, you can come along so I can bash your head in, if not, stand and help me distribute this" David commanded as he felt some sort of oppressive aura leave his body

"Yes sir!!" The rest of the thugs shouted

They may have long since desensitized themselves but they weren't stupid. It was clear to them that their opponent was not a normal man so they quickly respected themselves.

Of course, David had nothing to do with the Nigerian military but unfortunately for them, he couldn't tell them otherwise because it worked to his favor.

With that the group helped him distribute the food he brought to the women and a few men who were begging by the streets.

About thirty minutes later, David was standing before the boys and beside them were a few young men, he found lying on the street as well.

This set of people either had their arms amputated or something similar. He had distributed the food to all of them and many of them had eaten despite criticizing the food greatly.

Of course, David had denied cooking the food rather he said he had bought it whilst coming. The driver who heard him simply chuckled while trying his best to fix the huge dent in his car. "Where is the boy, I beat up?" David asked

...

1. Oga means Boss, however we depending on the context, it could mean what it actually does

or it could be a way to call someone

2. Mi mean My or Me, so 'Oga Mi' means 'My boss'

3. Aye mi means My life, mostly used for exclamation

4. Omo means Child but it is also a meaningless slang to express oneself e.g, Omo I am tired.
