Tanko did not share the milk in two halves, instead he ignored Bawa and made sure the four of them had a portion. This annoyed Bawa but pleased Garba who was grateful to have tasted the master's milk. It was sweet and very tasty. The following day, the boys learnt how to count. A black teacher who spoke English and called himself Mr. Felix taught. He explained it in Hausa as he taught in English. Garba liked it and he understood what Mr. Felix taught. He was very happy. "Tomorrow, you will learn how to write all what I've been teaching you. You will write one to ten," he said as he closed for the day. "I like Mr. Felix," Garba said later when he met Sule and Tanko. Bawa was avoiding them because of what happened the previous day. "Yes," said Sule. "He's a kind man. He's not like Mr. Jacobs or all these other teachers who speak through their nostrils." "Where is Bawa?" Garba asked Tanko. "The greedy boy says he's not interested in being friends with us again," Tanko said. "I guess it's because of what happened yesterday," Garba said.

DSS to quiz Alimodu Sheriff over Boko Haram sponsorship allegation

The Department of State Security, DSS, says it will be inviting former Borno state governor, Alimodu Sheriff, for questioning following recent allegations leveled against him by Australian hostage negotiator, Stephen Davis, who said he's a Boko Haram sponsor.

Speaking at a news conference today in Abuja, spokesperson for DSS, Marilyn Ogar, said

"I would want to say here that it is absolutely uncharitable for us as Nigerians to reward somebody who laid down his life in pursuing this same people (Boko Haram) for us to accept that he can in any way be associated with or seen sponsoring the same sect he together with this service succeeded in pulling down their activities in Kano, Okene and other parts of Nigeria to a halt and pushing them to Sambisa forest. Its the same man we want, because he is no longer in office, to say he is the one

sponsoring the sect. I think its being wicked. That shouldn't be the way we reward people who lay down their lives to provide a secure environment for us. As for the former Governor, he has been invited twice by this service and the service has also invited him again" she said

Madness...I Will Opt For A Plastic Surgery Because I Plan To Stay Long In This Game- Afro Candy

Afro Candy will be the first Nigerian celebrity to come out openly to say she is ready to undergo a plastic surgery just to look beautiful for the game. She said she plans to stay another 20years which will make her have a plastic surgery in order to still look good. Here is what she said in a recent chat about how she started what she does and why she might consider a surgery eventually;

It was just an idea that popped up in my mind. It wasn't in any way to get back at my estranged husband then. I'd been separated from my husband since 2007, but the p*rn movie thing came up just around last year. I can say that money was the primary reason because at a time after my husband left me in the US, I couldn't pay my house rent. So I went into it both because of the money and the fun. I will quit when I get old with wrinkled body. I plan to have a plastic surgery because I wish to stay in the game for another 20years.

Don't you know it is right that as sons of Dogongari we should be our brothers' keepers?" Sule tackled Bawa. Bawa snorted. "Let's get Yakubu to give us milk first before we know what to do." The four boys walked to the master's house situated on top of the hill. It was a neat bungalow with green lawn that was well kept. They walked behind the house with Tanko in the lead. At such times, Mr. Jacobs would be at the church holding service with the natives and settling disputes amongst the people. They found Yakubu plucking mango behind the house. Yakubu saw them and frowned. "What is it you've come here for?" he asked. "We want to have some milk?" Tanko said. "Is that why you've come in a battalion? Or do you want to get me into trouble?" Yakubu said. "Come one, we are your brothers, and I am sure you know us," Tanko said. "I objected to all of us coming here but they will not listen to me," Bawa said. Yakubu looked at him. He knew him enough to understand his intentions. So he paid no heed to him. "I will get you some milk but next time nobody should come here for anything. The master will get me into trouble if he knew I was giving out his milk," Yakubu said. He went inside and returned with a cup full ofmilk. "Here," he said and handed it to Tanko. "Thank you," they said "Now hurry away before he comes around. Keep the cup for me Tanko, I will collect it from you tomorrow in school," Yakubu said and the boys left. Just as they walked down the hill, they saw Mr. Jacobs returning home. They all lay down in the grass-and crawled to the other side of the hill to avoid being seen by the master. Some milk spilled. Mr. Jacobs was a fast walker. He always seemed to be in a hurry. He walked up to the house and disappeared through the front door. The boys took to their heels and ran to their hostel. "We Will divide it amongst ourselves, the four of us," Sule said. "Why? It was Tanko and T that had the idea of going for the milk. You and the village head chiefs son only met us on our way and you boys only escorted us so, both of you are not part of it," Bawa said. "Are you saying they will not get from the milk? That is being greedy," Tanko said. "No, it's not being greedy, it is only not being foolish," Bawa argued. "How can people who did not plant or know anything about sowing now want to have a share of the harvest? This is what my father will call cheating." "Your father is a cheat," Sule said. Garba was just watching them. He had never had this type of milk before and he realltwanted a Wste of it. But he was wondering why .:Bawa was so selfish. "How dare you call my father a cheat? Who is your father? Is he not the man who likes to borrow money to do anything?" Bawa fired back. Sule was angry. It was true that his father had borrowed money from Bawa's father and it had become a known issue when his father could not pay as at when due and Bawa's father had made a big issue out of it and everybody in Dogongari heard of it. However few days later his father had paid the money. "Don't insult my father," Sule warned. "You started it," Bawa said. He turned to Tanko, "You will share the milk in two equal parts between you and me. You can give whoever you choose to."
