Chapter 11 Politics of Deceit, Betrayal and Unkept Promises  (It's early morning in Tondoria. Apalahala is washing his motorcycle and at the same time admires his newly acquired Toyota Camry 3.5 horsepower given to him by Agama) Apalahala: Allah! Lore nga na da kew (this car is very beautiful). My only problem is how I am going to fuel it. Even my motorcycle, sometimes I am left in the middle of the road due to shortage of fuel. This car will definitely require more than just one gallon of petrol. Just look at the stress Agama has put me through. Ah well! I am not alone in this. Even Aguzu is equally suffering. Hahaha! Sometimes, his car runs out of fuel between three to four times from his house to the office. I can't complain much. Alhamdulillah for everything. At least, this is better than a motorcycle. (Apalahala learns that Little Fly has lobbied for jobs for some friends in New Tondoria Electoral Area. He informs Agama who is visibly worried that none of the lists he is p...

Branch Elections at Agama's Electoral Area and Agama's Rigging Machine

Politics of Deceit, Betrayal and Unkept Promises Chapter 7 continues (Part 2) (Flashback to the branch elections held at the Tiny Flowers. Agama is present; Maame Gyata is present. Ward coordinator and the constituency election committee is present. The purpose of the meeting is to elect new branch executives for the National Democratic Congress at Agama's Electoral Area. The battle line is drawn. It is a straight contest between Agama's poorly financed candidates and Lawyer's candidates. Agama wins a couple and loses a couple of votes. It is now the turn of the branch organizer and it is clear that Potoo will lose to his rival who is a carpenter, almost unknown in the area. Potoo keeps calling his supporters to come and vote, but the election committee had no choice than to carry on with the election.  Maame Gyata paces up and down, clearly worried about this particular election. She takes her phone, calls people to come and vote for Potoo. She is now visibly shivering. Sh...
