HUMAN CARRIAGE
Ejere Omoikhojie# 8741

Following heavy downpour, the wooden bridge that serves as link between Ohuan and Bide gave way. Men had to ferried commuters on their backs like babies across muddy stinky putrid water . The charge was #300 per person depending on sizes.
Several slim ladies and men were sauntered across with ease.
Then came a plump lady with big waist(bust)which in local parlance is called "Ikebe super" stood on the fringes of the flood water for long as no man was willing to transport her. Then she approached one of the male transporters
How much do I pay? she muttered desperately.
The man replied reluctantly, "With the other? "
She turned around ,"I am alone "
He resorted, "With your carriage makes it #1000.You know that I need to take pain relieving drugs after this"
She felt bad but then she had no option than to hop in!
