“Time and Tide” as they say waits for no man. The mediocre person tries to go by this saying. Ololo unlike the average person forgot about this saying and only believed in the philosophy of fools. He never forgot anything his father told him with respect to attending school in the big city.
Ololo who was always consoling himself with the satanic saying “the soul is willing but the flesh is weak” never took his studies serious even in his third year in the middle school. He developed lots of idea and strategies in his evil doings. Nobody was expected to say anything about Ololo. If you dare, he would deal with you drastically. He only had an iota of respect for Ben, but not to the extent of taking his advice.
Ololo as addicted to everything, drunk seriously one night during entertainment. He actually misbehaved and the issue was reported to the entertainment Master who dealt with him according to the law. Ololo thought of how to pay the entertainment Prefect, Aristotle, who reported the incident back in his own coin.
He stole the school’s video cassette Recorder, which automatically put the Aristotle in a bad situation. Experts were brought into the issue to do investigations, but Ololo was such a tactical thief that, he left no pace behind to be apprehended. He sold the deck, later from its hideout when he needed money, the entertainment prefect was made to pay for the cost and the watchman was of course sacked for being careless.
He resorted to the selling of stolen books for money, especially whenever he dried up and needed some badly. Ololo one day stole a whole lot of books from his juniors and was caught this time. He was reported and once it was his first case to the Headmaster, he de-throne him as the sports Prefect and was suppose to go on suspension for two weeks. There wasn’t Post Office in Koosonokrom, so they couldn’t post the letter and had to give it to Ololo to send it by hand. He couldn’t go to the house to air such damaging story. He chose to stay in the town while on suspension and went to sleep in the dormitory, which of course the authorities were not going to be notified.
