Ade has been sleeping at the car-park since the resumption of shift. It is already 4.30am and the Company security just called me to come see one of my Forklift drivers.
Ade! Ade!! Ade!!! We all shouted to no avail. Ade is having a nice sleep, at the middle of the car-park! For one, the company forbids sleeping on duty, this will lead to dismissal. What audacity does Ade have to leave the Factory premises to discover a ‘water bed’ at the concrete floor of the car park.
With some dirty slaps and heaving beating, we managed to wake Ade up. I almost thought Ade was dead already. Then, the unthinkable happened. Ade pounced on one of the security guards, demanding for his second leg. Within minutes, Ade’s shout has attracted more people out of the Factory into the car park. Ade is looking for his left leg, while limping on the right leg. Ade soon busted into bitter tears and weeping. “I can’t find my left leg, I am finished! How will I resume with two legs and one is gone, I am finished” Ade still limping and refusing to drop the left leg hanging. I knew we already have a big case of madness on our hands, so I asked the security personnel to call in the Police to arrest this baga.
Within Fifteen minutes, the Police came in with their Patrol Van, ready to arrest the man. ‘Who we wan arrest” one of the Police officers carrying the famous AK-47 asked. Straight away, we all pointed at Ade, who was still looking for his left leg and sweating profusely. ‘We no fit arrest mad-man oh, which cell we go put am, abeg, this is not a Police case o” the Police officer retorted. Nobody could move near Ade. It seems Ade has ran mad indeed.
Fast forward, the Police have gone back to their station. Most of the workers have gone back into the Factory to continue working their shift, some of the Company security personnel already gone to their duty post, I stayed with Ade who has started feeling sleepy again.
Around 7.00 am Ade called, “superior”, that’s the name am being refered to at work, please I am hungry. I called out, Ade! He answered. ‘So, you sabi me now”? “Yes Sir”. “Do you know you just lost your job”? “Yes Oga, but please, help me with food before I commot”. “I no go take Monkey tail again for my life! I never chop since morning before I take am”.
This is a true-life story, it happened at a company in Agbara.
Awesome story. Alcohol and weed can so distort perception. There a story of a boy who on his first attempt on weed was constantly bending down, as he walked home, so his head does not touch the electric wires 20m high! 😀

thank God it was just his leg he was looking for
Lol. Alcohol when taken with empty stomach can do great damage and can also put one in a confused state.
