GOVERNMENT UPON HIS SHOULDERS.
"Mama Ene! Mama Ene!! abeg come outside I need your help " A dark skinned woman with a round chubby face called. Looking at how heavily she is breathing one will tell she ran a marathon to be in this compound at this early hour of the day shouting mama Ene.
"Eh mama Bossey wetin happened?" An average woman of 35, rushed out, wiping her hands, "mama Bosey your children dey fine?" ask Mama Ene with concern. Mrs Theresa Edache is called after her first daughter; Ene, her husband and her are God fearing couple, always helping the needy.
"My daughter get belly, she no no who give her the belly, we don do everything to abort the pregnancy but we no fit. I no no why everything about me be like they curse me, since my husband die, life don tire me, even God self, na all these suffering make me stop to believe in him because if God truly dey all things no go dey happen to me, my daughter right now no fit born, hospital say make we pay for operation na wetin carry me come here mama Ene help me abeg" saying this she knelt down with tears rushing from her eyes.
"hmm" mama Ene breathe out heavily "God is never dead, he doesn't forsake never! He loves you. He doesn't leave his Children".
"why on earth will you advise your daughter for an abortion?" Suddenly her tune changed. Mama Bosey covered her face. Stand up make we go the hospital! she ordered. "which hospital she dey"?
"Na Aminu Teaching Hospital"
Hurriedly they left the house. Got into the tricycle. Reaching the hospital from afar a nurse in her 20s ran towards them. "Mrs Ade we have been looking for you, your daughter has put to birth without any complication but there is a problem, follow me!"
Entering the room the different faces stirring at one direction made them uneasy. Why people gather like this? mama Bosey ask herself. As they made their way inside what they saw lost their balance.
A newly born baby, wet coil hair, tiny fists seating on the lap of Bosey talking. His voice loud and clear, from afar one may think is a grown up. "Years ago a king was born, Emmanuel his name, government upon his shoulder, he is Christ the savior! says the baby. Anyone who believe in him shall be save, free from hell. He is coming soon! give your life to God! His government will have no end, is never to late to accept this King now!" Saying 'now' the baby stop breathing. "I can't feel his breathe mama" shouted Bosey. The doctor checked the baby's pulse. "he is gone". Bosey started crying quietly. Mama Ene cleared her voice, for the first time in the room she uttered her words. " We all should give our lives to Christ, this is a warning. Even in hardship believe in Him. God will never fail us!"
