I bumped into my former neighbour Dan, were
neighbours back when I was living in Asaba, we exchanged pleasantries and did
some catching ups, it was then I remembered Dan’s ordeal back in the days at Umuokwo
street Asaba.
Dan was a core bachelor back then and he loved to go
after little girls, secondary school underage girls were his favourite, there
was no teenage girl in that area and beyond that he hasn’t sorted after. He was
a predator to teen girls and parents of teenage girls dreaded him, parents that
did not know the whereabouts of teenage daughters would even come to look for
their daughters in his house, so you can imagine the extent of drama, he impregnated
some girls and they got rid of it secretly.
One day Dan slept with the wrong girl who her father
was a traditionalist, he impregnated her, so her father insisted that Dan must
marry her and he refused, so the father placed a curse on Dan and told him that
he will have only girls and all of them shall bring him pain and shame like he
brought to him, and everything he did to other people’s daughters, they will do
to his daughters.
Today Dan is married and he has 6 daughters with no
boy, his first daughter who is now in her early twenties had a child who her mother
takes care of after she abandoned the child with her mother, she moved on to be
living with another man who has not paid her bride price, the second daughter
dropped out of school, she is now a confirm runs girl and yet she is just 18
years old. All his girls have spiraled out of control including his wife who
also sorts after young boys.
When I saw Dan that day, he looked much older than
his age, he must have been living his life in total regrets, Bible says that we
should not treat others the way we wouldn’t like them to treat us, but how can a
man like Dan think that he would receive better treatment after damaging other
people’s happiness?
