Sword of Vengeance

By Olatubosun David

The eldest son of Balogun is shot dead by an unknown person suspected to be an enemy from Olofa-Ija village, while working in the farm, making a long time rivalry which seems to be in the period of ceasefire to be refreshed. In no time the evil news spreads across the whole village and the youths are ready to start a war. Their access to Sword of Vengeance (a powerful ancestral sword that used to be in the custody of Balogun) gives them more confidence to win the battle. However, only the village elders know what it means to go to war at that particular time when their tradition forbids it. Hence they have to prepare more and wait for another time since there is always another time.
