Lolo is the third and the only son of Mr Koko children, Mr Koko is a semi-literate man from a village in Ogu town. Ogu is village very near the popular town Ekile.
The most people of Ogu are farmer including Lolo's father and the sell there farms produce to Ekile town but according to the tradition of the land when a young man get to his early twenties he leaves his family to prepare to have his own family.
Now Lolo is twenty two, and this 'signifies time to leave' and he as been preparing to do so, according to the tradition the going out son must not be help with any material things from his parents no matter how small, he only has to go with his clothes and nothing else.
Lolo leave Ogu for Ekile, there was a small clan between Ogu and Ekile, an old man and his families leaves in this clan before but after the death of the man the dispatched by the high waves of robbers operating around the area which left the clan empty. since the only means of transportation from Ogu to Ekile is an old lorry which always convey people and their goods to market and it only comes every five days any other jorney apart from it scheduled days has to be done on foot among this day is Lolo's jorney, he only been able to reach this small clan before it's dark he as no other option than to pass the night at the clan.
Around 11:00 pm, Lolo was wake by a sound and he listens to know what could have made sound, then he noticed there's a little light in the other hut very close to where he laying, in his he thinks it might be some other people also trying to pass the night as well to continue the journey on the next day, but by 12:00pm what he saw was incredible. TO BE CONT.
