THE STORY

There was this man in our village called Nicodemus Ouma who was arrested by men in our village for stealing in a neighbours farm. He was taken to the chief and when asked why he had endulged in theft, he gave a story that made those around to have mercy on him.
The story he told was that he and his familly had slept hungry almost a week and his children were at the point of death so he needed the food to cook for his dieing children. As he narrated the story, he cried and even begged the chief to let him rush the food home escorted by some men so that his wife can cook the food for his children while he was arrested.
When they escorted the man to his home, they found the children in a very bad situation something that made people donate even more food for them.
