When Christmas Comes Calling
Sorchima never wanted a job at Kolam’s Consulting but the statistics of job openings in Nigeria weren’t smilling. His dad Mazi Ikemefuna had went with the wave of innocence and goodwill, whispering the wishes of a father to the ears of his fellow knight at St. Paul’s Catholic church, Orlu, Imo state.
It’s been four years and Sorchi has nothing to show for the envy that comes with putting “white collar job” and “city” in the same sentence.
By chance, Ugwuanyi, his coursemate at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka is in Abuja attending a meet-up and is eager to have an evening hangout with his “gainfully employed” colleague.
It will later become an initiation into the world of cryptocurrency and with the dash of a prey taking a stride to escape his predator, Sorchi jumps at the chance of investing in steem since bitcoin has become too expensive.
Within four months, he couldn’t believe the amount of flesh the steemit blockchain was adding to his bank account. For the first time in his life, he is assured that when Christmas comes calling he won’t be a spectator to the circus show of Yahoo boys.
