Some 23 years ago I went to my Father's office to collect monies for some school supplies including books. His Orderly asked that I wait that my Dad was in a certain rush but I had to go back to Ekpoma from Benin the same day so I walked into the office. I saw the rush as he was standing to leave, but seeing me he had to attend to my needs. My father is or was not one who would give you money without justification, so he scrutinised my list and I defended every kobo. Suddenly his doors was pushed open and I heard his loud voice.. Morning Sir, it was his Boss, the Commissioner of Police Edo state. CP: Mr. Eboigbe you must be an idiot Dad: Yes Sir CP: How dare you keep me waiting, are you normal? Dad: I am very sorry Sir. CP: I better not get to my office before you....... and the semi illiterate, poor diction, ill mannered young Man with harsh northern accent went on hurling insults on my Dad, while he stood at attention. Without looking at me, my Dad said Son wait for me at home. Seeing the great Alpha Male, King and Supreme Ruler of his household in that state broke me. My journey back home was tormentous and depressing. Later in life I came to my own realities that The King must submit outside his Kingdom to bring bread to the table. Today's post is not about my Dad, for the old man has retired and he is enjoying his retirement his own way. This post is about the Husband - King and Commoner and an awakening in the hearts of those he fights for. The only place in the world where a Man is truly a King is his home and as soon as he steps out in search of daily bread he automatically becomes a commoner; he begs, he weeps, he is insulted, sometimes humiliated and humbled. He Kneels before lesser Men, demeaned by Clients, Superiors, Customers, Employers etc. All these he takes undignified but internally proud knowing that it is in and by his submission that bread is guaranteed on the table of his family. He knows that submission is the SURVIVOR'S APPARATUS. When labour is over, he picks himself up adorning his Kingly Robes and returns to his Kingdom. When he returns and if he returns, those in his kingdom must help remind him, that here is his kingdom where he reigns supreme, as Husband, Father and King!

...and the semi illiterate, poor diction, ill mannered young Man with harsh northern accent went on hurling insults on my Dad, while he stood at attention.Very unnecessary lines if you ask me..Would you have used these lines if the boss was an Igbo man? No! If your father couldn't train you to accept things as God has decreed, he must have failed at fathering you..Being a good father doesn't start and end with scrutinizing demand lists to ensure money doesnt go down the drain Happy father's Day to your father 1 Like 1 Share |

Nice one. Mr Eboigbe was calm because he was in the force But trust me as an Edo man he will surely have his revenge. That part of the story he won't tell you. Made me remember my manager once upon a time during my working days. A Very rude uncouth nincompoop.Stays in felele , Ibadan. Drives a Lexus. His name is Tunde. Always shouting and screaming. At any slight opportunity he wants to embarass you. Staffs complain and I always act the mediator. The day he entered me...hmmmmm. My lady then came to the office to wait for me as we were travelling to Lagos. I've finished my balancing O. We were waiting for him but he was on phone toasting one mumu girl like that. I was already boiling as I couldn't drive at night at the time this guy was not listening. So I went to his office door. Hoping my presence would speed things up. Still on the call he came out just for no reason O that was when he sighted my now ex. Na there devil decide to use am. As he was returning still on the call he said in Yoruba, " until to ba to sunkun bi egbere Ni mo ma to he KO lo le" meaning until I weep like a small demon before he will allow me go home. I was like excuse me. Na there he face me tell me say I must be a bastard. Get out of my office you animal. He wanted to swell his ego so that my ex will know he is the boss. What he didn't know was that a swollen ego comes with a swollen face. And a few missing teeth. People outside said all they heard was GBA GBA GBA GBA and I calmly walked out and told my ex to follow me. When they saw him they started searching around the office maybe the others that beat him up was hiding somewhere. Trailer jam am that day. I've already sacked myself the next Monday for I didn't resume work. On Tuesday I was called to office. He made reports but the area manager didn't even bat an eye. He has been a thorn in everyone's flesh and in their eyes I did them a huge favour. 18 Likes 2 Shares |

OnionBandit:The writer/op is probably an Edo man and there is nothing in the write up that suggest that he is Igbo. But you still found a way to bring in Igbo into your stupidd comment. Your hate for Igbos won't stop them from prospering in Nigeria and beyond. The Igbos are Jewish people from origin and no matter what they go through, they will still prosper. This is more reason why they ask for their own country. 8 Likes |

That's what most fathers pass through on a daily basis just to put food on the table at home. May God bless all responsible fathers, widows, single mothers and responsible guardians out there. 2 Likes |

illicit: I beg to disagree my brother....Even if he was delaying him, was insulting and degrading a fellow man like him the best way to register his displeasure ?... I mean being a Nigerian where certain degrading comment and actions is taken as a norm is not really what it should be... Just because he was insulting him and nothing was done does not make it normal and acceptable world wide... 2 Likes |
