Another Wednesday has come!
Follow up our exciting story series episode 1,2&3 on our facebook page.

Continued from last week...watch the live movie scene. The owner of the shop Mr. Kalu and the market woman made a move to plead on behalf of Punto and Checheskey."Oga Alegribusa, these two young boys came to my shop to buy some food items from me. They came with their nylon bag but told me it wasn't theirs and that they thought they could return it. Before they could finish telling me about the nylon, the girl over there (pointing to Rita) began to call them thieves" the shop owner said.

"Isnt that true?" The shop owner asked.
 
"Yes" answered the market woman.
 
"What is inside the nylon" Alegribusa asked.

"We dont know" Punto and Checheskey chorused.
 
As everyone watched, Alegribusa opened the nylon. His face changed form, his eyes became wide open, his mouth gave way for his tongue to drop below his jaw. Alegribusa was stunned for several minutes before regaining consciousness.

"What is in that nylon?" Everyone murmured as they scrambled to have a look.

"Guards, take this two boys to the guard room" Alegribusa ordered.
 
"Take my daughter to the house immediately and you, pick up this nylon and follow me" he also ordered.

Everyone was amazed as the entire incident became suspicious. No one knew what Alegribusa saw in the nylon. He didn't disclose. People who cared to know followed the moving train.

When Alegribusa turned and saw the entire market and community people following him, he halted and turned... to be continued.

WORLD'S OLDEST MAN DIES AT 116 IN SOUTH AFRICA

                   Fredie Blom - seen here on his 116th birthday - said there was no special secret to his longevity A South African who was thought to be the oldest man in the world has died at the age of 116.

I can drop over any time but He holds me," he said. Mr Blom spent most of his life as a labourer - first on a farm and then in the construction industry - and only retired when he was in his 80s.   Fredie Blom's identity documents list his date of birth as 8 May 1904 Although he gave up drinki
