He was a tall and fiery tempered young man
She had been raising him and their two other siblings since their parents died in a motor accident twelve years before
The dream was too scary to ignore
She ran to a prophet...
The events will lead to her younger brother being jailed!
The only remedy was to ensure that her brother observed a three days fasting and prayer between 19th and 21st of that month without leaving the house
She explained what happened and asked that the whole family observe the three days fasting and prayer!
Her younger brother was not convinced! Her sister was too superstitious! It was borne of fear of the unknown after their parents died!
He needed to be flexible
What if he was called for a job interview on one of the three days?
And what sort of prophet throws a family into fasting and prayer when if he was truly powerful, he would have just said a word of prayer and cancelled the dream?
He left
They had the test
The instructor told twelve of them to wait behind while he discharged the rest
While they waited the instructor pointed an office to him and asked him to run there and bring some forms on the table
He eagerly did so
They waited for several hours
By 5pm, the instructor emerged with some police officers
He accused him of stealing!
They arrested him!
He didn't know what was going on
He protested his innocence
He cried
His friend said he didn't know what happened
His sister called a lawyer
They rushed to the police station
They demanded his unconditional release
They were taken to the DPO's office
He was also brought in
The footage was reviewed
250,000! Five bales of 50,000 each!
He would be going to prison for a long time
His sister and the lawyer quietly walked out of the police station
The case against him was iron clad
The prophecy had been fulfilled to the letter
She called the prophet!
There was nothing he could do!
His sister was puzzled!
He was pronee to anger, stubborn and proud
But her brother does not steal
It was totally out of character
The camera didn't lie
But she still found it hard to reconcile!
He was desperate and confused
He said he didn't know when he took the money
He didn't deny that it was found on him
He just didn't know how
He said It was when he was arrested that his sense came back to him
He needed divine intervention
They prayed!
The manager of the insurance company came to the police station to see the thief the next day
He discovered the late father of the thief was the one that gave him his first job in Bayelsa in 1987
Wow!
