Akpor and his Father at his Graduation
Ceremony
Akpors’ father accompanied him to his
school end-of-year awards party.
As they sat watching amidst loud
ovations, the beneficiaries were called
to the podium for their awards.
The following conversation ensued:
Announcer: Best student in sciences,
the winner is Inem.
Father: (Applauds 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 got
ready to start the car, the engine
refused to respond.
He opened the bonnet and touched a
few things but his efforts did not yield
any response so they resorted to
pushing it. Just as they got to the exit
of the school, the rickety car sparked
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
Navigator, Range Rover 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!’
