Abstract: When Kola Bey gets in a taxi in front of his hotel, he is surprised to see that the cab driver is his old friend Ganiu Olawale from high school. Ganiu Olawale at one time was employed by the Nigerian government, but after losing his government job, he has been driving a taxi to support his growing family. During the drive into Lagos, Kola Bey tells Ganiu that he has been working in America for many years and is about to return, and therefore he needs someone to manage his Lagos construction business while he is away. He wants Ganiu to be his manager. Unable to believe his good luck, Ganiu returns to his family home to participate in the evening's prayers. After praying, he tells his wife and children that their lives are about to change for the better. Together they all praise Allah for their good fortune. The following day, Ganiu visits Kola Bey's construction business and is introduced to all the employees. They then proceed to Kola Bey's bank where Ganiu is made a cosignatory on all of Kola Bey's business accounts. Now that he is wealthy, Ganiu begins to consider the advantages of taking a second wife. After all, the Koran says a man can have two or more wives as long as he can support them.
