Episode 5

They thanked the herbalist as they left in the company of the kinsmen.

Oheneyere was made to rest without any disturbances. She was served at the right time to make sure she gained enough energy.
Much time was spent with her to make her feel loved. As for pampering, it became the norm. Nana didn't want to lose this child.
He always went on his knees to pray to God to give him a child full of life. All he needed was a child, no matter the gender.
Nana couldn't go about his normal duties since he spent most of his time with his his wife.

He encouraged the elders and kinsmen to also pray whenever they were alone because if Nana Aduhene Sekyi should die, there would be no one to take over the throne, lest they go into bondage and slavery.
If they should encounter that, they would be forced to turn their back against God. That was exactly what Nana Aduhene Sekyi was trying to avoid.
He loved God so much with his heart.
He didn't want any of his people to turn against God, so whenever he went down on his knees, he remembered to commit his people into the hands of God.
He inculcated into his people the love and respect for God.

A day was set aside to worship God. He passed a law that they fast and pray till 12:00 on Wednesdays, after which they could all go about their normal duties.
Due to their love and submissive heart towards God, their lands were rich and fertile, and their animals continued to multiply.
The chief continued to pray for grace and mercies.
When the time was due for his wife to deliver, she put to bed without going the pains of labour.
Before the traditional birth attendant came around, she had already given birth. It was another nice and hairy bouncy baby boy.

He looked strong like a month old baby. Indeed, he had come to stay.
Nana and his wife could not hide their joy. The news spread through the town like wild fire.
Their dreams had come into reality. God had performed yet another miracle. He didn't just give them a child, but He gave them a successor. He didn't give them just a successor, but He gave them a handsome and hairy successor.
They trooped to the palace to congratulate the chief and his wife.
Though they were not allowed to see the baby, they said prayers to wish him well.
They knew they would see him one day.

The baby needed rest so he could gain much strength to lead them. Besides, the journey from the womb to land of the living was a very tiring one.
He needed no noise.
At last, the people of Nyakrom could boast of a successor.
