RIVER IN THE LAKE II EPISODE 6

Shattered

No one appears to know the exact source of *river* yet it runs through all walks of life as it meanders its way along the many struggles of nature. 

How far, how long, how wide can it stretch to exhibit it's commanding prowess over the storms of the day. Or shall it succumb to the harsh efforts of mother nature to subdue and collect this great water in a *lake*.

*RIVER IN THE LAKE SEASON II*

EPISODE 6

 "I don't know but I'm not sure he deserves to die. Our sins have been paid for by the savior Jesus Christ. Now, can someone please tell me what he has done?", Quaku Adepa replied. "Savior Jesus Christ? Who is He and who did He pay it to?" they asked looking more confused. They didn't know about the savior. 
Did it mean some were still in the dark? Quaku Adepa Nyamekye was surprised to hear that from them. Was there any other person worthy of worship apart from God? He had grown to know that only God was worthy of worship. He didn't know of traditional believers or whatsoever.

"Anyway, I'm sorry but permit me to ask this, are you Christians? I mean do you go to church to pray to God?", Quaku Adepa asked.
"Church? Noooooo. We don't believe in their leader. We hear He is slow to anger and as humans, we want quick responses since some are wicked, just like our chief here", one replied.
"What! Your chief? And you want to kill him? What abomination has he committed?" Quaku Adepa wanted to know.

"Hei young man! You have asked too many questions. What is your problem? Huh? Or do you want to die with him? Leave us to execute our plan. Come on, go!", an angry man shouted. "Master,please I'm sorry for interfering and asking too many questions, but please answer me", Quaku replied.

All this while, the chief, Odeneho Kwadwo Sintim was kneeling down awaiting death to embrace him. He looked very thin.
"Anyway, this man here is our chief. Since he ascended the throne, human beings, as well as animals have been dying. Strange sicknesses have befallen our people. We were told the only end to our problems was for him to sacrifice his newborn baby. His wife, upon hearing that, ran away with the baby. It's been many years now, we are still going through the challenge. The worst of it all, he himself has been sick for so many years without getting well. He can't move about without assistance. One of his guards has been very faithful to have stayed with him to help him, but what happened? He also died  mysteriously. Now, there is no one to help him so he defecates in the same room he sleeps. Just have a look at him, there are boils all over him. We are tired. If he continues to live, we are all going to die so it's better he dies. We are going to kill him today and end all these tragedies", one man replied Quaku Adepa.
