Their first customer was carrying some eggs in a bowl. She wanted to buy only the eggs. Musa sent Ahmad to go round the market and know how other people were selling their own eggs. He asked for the price of eggs and also that of fowls in a nearby stall and quickly came back. They felt very happy after having counted their money, Ahmad whispered to musa that he was going to buy a portable walkman very soon.

When their second customer had bought a local cockerel and left,Musa had sent Ahmad out again,to go and find out how much others were selling the same size of ducks and turkeys as theirs, on returning ,Ahmad saw an old saw woman taking out fowls from the cages. He could not believe what he saw. There was a little crowd of people round their stand,initially he fell very happy thinking that they were all their customers,then he saw the second person that bought from them pointing at him, here he comes,this is the boy who bought it out from the cage said their second customers.

Ahmad tried to creep away but i was too late,it so happened that the woman had been passing with cock she had bought when an older woman stopped her.she humbly given the cock to her,after she had explained to her that she had been looking for hers. Then after the inspection the old woman had bluntly told her that she was thief,before she could realize anything the older woman had held her,by her wrapper ,shouting she have caught a thief. She had even tried to strip her naked🤣(Dr. Ummiey boko can relate😜)when she has started to struggle to have the cock from two boys,one of the people gathered and asked the old woman if she had anything with which to identify her own cock,she had  said that she had many marks to prove that,she had painted her fowls with black paint on their limbs (Mom can relate😁😘)cut to their wings,and besides,she had been looking for four of her cooks. All the marks she mention had been found on the fowls,At the point one of the market security men had come out from the crowd,he had ordered her to show them the boys whom she had  bought the Cock from.

They had met only Musa and,he had tried to deny the woman,Although no receipt was issued to her,truth prevailed the older woman had recognize three more of her cocks from the cage ,Musa had tried to escape but had been caught. A young man had hel him by the neck,trying to squeeze him to death,that was when Ahmad was spotted by their second customer and then the angry mob went after him. Within a short time crowd of more than fifty people circled. Musa and Ahmad ,they consisted of buyers and sellers and the security men,they were waiting for the next thing that would follow;the law of the village market had it that anybody caught in such an act was liable to be stripped naked and flogged by a committee.

After they had been flogged,the committee made them two snail_shell necklace which they wore round their necks,they are taken round the market naked and to some parts of their villages,their bodies were filled with marks left by the leather whip the committee used on them.They carried the two cages with them,in the process the owners of those remaining poultry were given the chance to claim them from the committee ,at last the two thieves were respectively taken to their houses for general searching.

People shouted when they saw their missing Turkies,ducks and fowls at Musa's house.there was no other person in the house when they gained entrance,expect his aged father. He displayed a nonchalant attitude towards the case.That was not the first time he was paid such visits ,but the previous ones were by the police.

Malam Mahmud was sitting in his armchair under the shade of an mango tree ,in the front center of his compound ,he had heard the story as the doctrine of the saying that "no news good news" had it that once  there was bad news people would hear it, so he had decided on what to do about the case. Neither him nor his wife had ever dared to look at somebody's property. He wondered where their son inherited his criminal trait, God forbid! Only Ahmad knew,Malam mahmud was wrestling with his mind, he lifted his face at them as they entered ,Ahmad was shedding some crocodile tears,his father welcomed them and led the search. They even searched under the bed,nothing was found in his house that was not his own. When everybody was satisfied with the search ,Malam Mahmud proclaimed that Ahmad was not longer his son😣,that his conscience could not allows him to harbor a thief in his house, He further gave them a go-ahead order to take him away and do whatever they liked with them. His mother was heard sobbing in her room.

Ahmad and his friend where released later in the evening.
Malam Mahmud was sitting on his arm chair ,near his room when he came back home,heading to his room.

AHMAD! he's father called him in a loud voice.

What are you doing here?GET OUT!! he said,regarding him thoughtfully,sometimes Malam Mahmud seemed to be joking while he would be dead serious..

_Keep following✌Will Ahmad gain his life or not,Will his father allow him to stay or not,Malam mahmud seemed to be joking while his is dead serious? Is dat true or not_
