NWADINOBI

Axiomatically, there is time for everything, so was the time for Dikeoha to get married. Bizarrely, as fate would superintend, Ekechi his betrothed got impregnated by a kleptomaniac. Dikeoha (being blinded by the aroma of love) forged ahead and married Ekechi, who later gave birth to an imp, christened Nwadinobi. This imp did not only devastate Dikeoha and his menage but the entire people of Rumuoma and beyond. This melodrama, albeit a fact of life, strives to depict the realities associated with the act of marrying a woman carrying another man's baby.
