Imagine a world of virtually everything
being correct!
Imagine a world of no offense!
Imagine a world of no sorry, all
because the people in it are faultless and flawless. People become sorry and sorrowful as a result simple
negligence, now this man's ordeals.
Along a busy road somewhere in
Benue state, Otukpo precisely. At Emateyi junction, if you know the road, it is
quite a busy one especially when the day folds up.
As usual, the Traffic warden was
freely swinging his hands directing the vehicles on what to do, either to stop at
both ends to allow those crossing the road to do so and as well ushers them to
keep moving.
It happened in a flash when a
motorcycle rider carelessly approached, he advanced without taking note but out-rightly
ignored the warden's instructions, the rider was supposed to halt to give way
to the pedestrians, but instead headed straight to navigate his way behind the
warden, just at that spot, the warden stretched his hand and removed the
rider's cap, it fell and he quickly picked it up, and within five seconds,
other traffic officials appeared and bundled the motorcycle away. "What's
going to happen to this man?" (a thought within me) I wouldn't know
anyway.
To satisfy my curiosity, I moved
close to them and listen to their interaction or interrogation rather. I could
see him hold five hundred naira note in his hand begging and making a hundred
pleas, and all he could say was, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry".
But I thought within myself, "why sorry?" This could have been averted
if he had done the right thing.
See more traffic signs below...
Knowing the right thing and
refusing to do them is highly inimical and can create room for loss. He
actually lost so many things.
He lost his dignity and integrity;
all eyes were on him and he begged those he should not naturally beg.
He lost his money which could
probably be used for other things.
He also lost a considerable amount
of time doing what he not have done.
Why always sorry? Do the right
thing and stop being sorry. Let sorry go on extinction! Do you believe that
sorry could go on extinction?
