LONG JOHN SILVER & I (The SP)


The war was fought and everyone lost as in  many wars . I found myself in Awgu County  Sec Sch.(1972)and Jon was in class 4   (with my cousin Law Nwarueze). He  was  the deputy SP. The next year he was overwhelmingly and almost  unanimously voted for the post of  the SP. 

County had the air and hope equal to the one in Nigeria when Obi was winning with the obidents. It was a beautiful time.

Everyone attended the morning  assembly to see this  handsome SP that had  much swags. His English  was better and more Queenly than what you hear now in London . How he did that  is still an enigma.His uniform fitted him more than ordinary and he had a way of carrying his frame which we all called 'Pirates walk' and imitated it. I remember my mom observed I was walking differently and cautioned me sternly. 

He didn’t carry the SP functions  with  iron fist ; we all obeyed all rules happily…… He was loved!

We were told by some seniors that all the girls coming  from Girls schools like Queens sch. Enugu , Rosary High sch Awgu , Ovim girls , Sedess Oghe etc  to bring invitations to  parties or association events all wanted to talk with him even if he wasn't the person to receive the invitations! . The SP was popular in all the female schools who 'crushed on' him and I suppose he knew but it  didn’t  bother him…..

December 1972 the WASC/GCE.., the send-off and we missed him …….
