Memoir of a village witch(episode 6)

The doctor  told them that the mad man do not suffer any internal injuries and he advised them to take him to a specialist doctor. Baba bola was relieved and he asked the doctor to recommend someone to him so that he can take the man there. He went back to the station to inform his friend, Inspector James told him to go home that he would handle any issues that may arise. Baba bola thanked him and left the police station.
"Hello, em everything is under control, the man did not die..." Baba bola speaks to the mouthpiece of his phone without waiting for the other person at the other end respond to him.
"Eiya...thank God oooo!!!" Mama taiye responded when she heard the news.
"We would talk better, tomorrow" she said and cut the line.
Baba bola was relieved and walked into his compound. On entering he saw his ex-girlfriend crying and her three children were around her trying to console her.
"What is wrong with you, Mama Bukky?" He enquired from her wondering why she would be distraught, or someone had told her about the incident happened, no that can't be he thought to himself.
"You this wicked man, why did you do that to that poor man?" Mama Bukky accused him amidst tears
" What is wrong with you, woman?" Baba Bola asked her, looking a bit puzzled by her utterance.
"You know what am saying, you better find solution to it eh." She rushed at him grabbing the front of his shirt.
"Let go of my shirt before i descend on you." Baba Bola was visibly angry and tries to free himself from her hold.
"I would tell the world what you did if you do not cure him, you hear me?" She shouts at him as he manages to free himself from her hold.
Baba bola went inside and slammed the door shut.
I never did anything wrong with that young man, so what foolishness is this woman saying? He asked himself. Or they thought he was the cause of his madness? He thought. Well my conscience is clear because I do not afflict him with madness.
Mama Bukky gather herself and led her children away from the compound and wondering how she got herself into this mess.
She had been married to Funsho for almost 8 years and have three children for him but just before she had her last child, she was involved in an affair with Baba Bola and Funsho had caught them together, this was why he had sent her out of the house after she had born her last child with Funsho claiming he was not the father of the baby then.
She heard later that Funsho had disappeared from home after a few months that she left but never could imagine that he had run mad and was living close to where she was staying for over two years now. It must be Baba Bola that use diabolical means to turn him into a mad man and maybe after he saw him again that's why he wanted to kill him off. It must be so. She thoughts and concluded and started crying again. Thats how he used diabolical means so that I can date him as well, because how can I fall for someone who is a womamizer and he keeps changing women as if he is changing a used toilet paper.
"Oh God!!!" Mama Bukky laments and think back to our she met Baba Bola and how one thing led to another and he started sleeping with him even though she was married and back then she knew that he was befriending her friend and she still agree to be dating him. Then after awhile he just gets tired of her honeypot and move on to another woman.
She can only cry and wondered how she could be so stupid to have done all she had done. She is still grateful for Baba Bola because he had given her a place to stay when Funsho sent her away but the love she had for Funsho is so strong because she never thought after over three years and she could still cry over him.
"I have to help him in anyway I can." She said to herself.
She rest her head on the only cushion in her room and reminisce about the old days.

Temmy could not believe she could see her sister getting intimate with another man while she was still married and to think that she was always a quiet and reasonable person,  even made it so unbelievable.
She was still thinking back at the incident when her phone rings,  she checked the phone screen to see who was calling and saw her sister's name and contemplate whether to pick it or not.
"Hello,  sister mi. " Temmy spoke to the phone after she had decided to picked the call on the third attempt.
"You don't want to pick my call? " Mama Taiye accused her when she finally picks.
"It's not like that sister. " She replied not knowing any excuse to give her sister.
"Okay,  please let's talk about this tomorrow. " Mama Taiye pleads with her.
"There is no need for us to talk about anything sister. " She retorted angrily.
"So it's me you are shouting at like this eh? " Mama Taiye tried to sound angry.
"Sister,  I am not shouting at you.  am just tired. Goodnight. " Temmy hanged up without letting her say anything.

Mama Taiye was disturbed and don't know what to do. Her sister is disappointed in her and she does not want to listen to why she was doing what she caught her doing.
"How do I explained myself to her. " She thought to herself.  She concludes that she would go and see her and talk to her.

"Thank God that he did not die ooo? " Mama Taiye said when she visited Baba Bola the following day, placing her two palms together and face the heavens.
"Abi ooo... " Baba Bola replied.  "Thank God I do not have a dead man on my head o. " he add placing his hand on his head.
"Baba Bola, this is a sign ooo... We should stopped seeing each other." Mama Taiye suggests looking disturbed.
"Ahn ahn... it hasn't come to that now." Baba Bola persuades her and drew her closer to himself trying to console her.
"I know you were scared, but that is just one incident and it would not repeat itself again" he encourages her.
Mama Taiye wanted to changed her mind but remembered her sister, she summon courage, stood up and looked straight at Baba Bola. "Look it's over and don't ever call me again." She said and stotmed out of the room before she changes her mind again.
Baba Bola, smiled and doesn't seems to bother as he laid on his back and slept off.


After spending two weeks in the hospital, Funsho was discharged after passing psychological test to know if he had recovered his senses. He was grateful to the doctors but could not remember how and why he found himself at the hospital but was grateful that he could start his life all over again.

HOW TO CREATE A STRONG PASSWORD

Before we begin, we must be clear on one major expectation: there is no such thing as a perfect password. A committed hacker can crack any password, given enough time and the right "dictionary" or "brute force" tools. But just like breaking into a car, if the protection is strong enough, the hacker will become discouraged and commonly give up before the protection fails. In this tutorial below, we will explain how to create a password that:  1) is not a word in the dictionary, nor a proper noun;   2) is complex enough to foil repetition attacks; and   3) is intuitive enough for you to remember. 1.  Start With a Base Word Phrase . A good password is at least 8 characters long, and once it reaches 15 characters, it becomes particularly resistant to hackers and their dictionary programs. To help build your password, start with a base word phrase. A useful approach is to choose a memorable catchphrase, quotation, or easy-to-remember saying, and ...
