Father: (Flogging his son) You are a stupid boy, good for nothing!
Son: (Crying) Daddy please forgive me, I can explain!!
Father: Explain what? Explain why you still failed WAEC the third time?
Son: (Still crying profusely) Yes dad, I can explain.
Father: Ok, tell me, I want to hear.
Son: You always tell me it's good for a male child to resemble his father.
Father: Yesss!! I said so.
Son: And you said during your time in secondary school, you wrote WAEC 7 times.
Father: (Stammers) Ye....sss!! But at that time, education was still very valuable, and not like this your generation! And moreover, I never discussed the number of times I wrote WAEC with you!
Son: Yes dad, but I overheard you when you were playing with mummy in the kitchen some years back and you mentioned it.
Father: (Shocked) What was your mummy's response then?
Son: Mummy said she wrote hers 9 times. But I've told Bola to make sure she writes her own WAEC nothing less than 9 times when it's times, because it's good for a female child to take after her mother as well.
Father: (Cane falls down from his hand) What!
Son: Moreover dad, generation has nothing to do with this. I just wrote three sets of WAEC, and I'm still going to 7, because I always pray to be like you.
Father: (Changes the story😀) See, myself and your mother were only joking that time. What I was telling her was that I wrote only 7 subjects in my WAEC, and she said she wrote 9!
Light fades😀😀😀
