Ajaiyi And His Inherited Poverty (2014)
“No one claims relationship with a poor man; but when he is rich, everyone becomes his relative.
*The three of us were now in the village which we had left for more than six years in respect of the money. As soon as the whole people of the village followed us to the house and made a mockery of us, went back to their houses. Ojo, Alabi and myself entered the sitting room. The three of us sat on the floor, we were resting because we were entirely tired for the neck-breaking loads (the three te...rrible talking heavy lumps of the iron) which we had carried back to the village instead of money. After we had rested to our satisfaction, as the whole house had become almost dust and was full of refuses before we arrived.
