Adebimpe the Facebook Girl (complete Season 7)

EPISODE 26.

I checked my time and I realized I still had some time, I drove to the airport while Henry sent the details to my phone via sms. I received the package after following the process and informed Henry on phone. He was so happy and requested I should take it to bimpe and deliver it to her. I sat in my car and wondered why bimpe wasn’t calling me by herself and it was Henry that was doing the calling. I picked my phone and placed a call to bimpe before starting the car engine.

ME: hello adebimpe.

BIMPE: hi onihaxy.

ME: I got a call from Henry not quite long to help you in retrieving a package which I later did. I’m just surprised that you aren’t the one calling and it was him. why?.

BIMPE: yes onihaxy. it was actually a friend that sent the items to me and I was supposed to go and pick it up at the airport, but I am not feeling too fine.

ME: yes, Henry told me the same thing. but why didn’t you call me instead?

BIMPE: because I know that you won’t believe me.

ME: Hmmmmmm. It’s your handiwork that made me to be scared of you,

BIMPE: That was then onihaxy. I told you that I have changed.

ME: where is your maid?

BIMPE: she went out for jamb lessons.

ME: what about Daniella?

BIMPE: she is sleeping.

ME: Bimpe, are you sure that you are truly sick?

BIMPE: yes now onihaxy. why are you talking like this?

ME: because I know you to be cunny and full of funny strategies.

BIMPE: I’m serious jor onihaxy. When are you bringing it for me?,

ME: I”m on my way already ma.

BIMPE: ok dear.
I started the car engine and drove off to lekki and arrived at bimpe’s house a few minutes to 6pm. I decided to park my car outside of the gate because I din’t want to stay long at all. I switched off the car engine, locked the car and walked towards the gate to Henry’s house, different thoughts began to run through my mind.
” I’m here in front of the lion’s den again”
” I can remember how I almost became a murderer on my last visit”
” yes, I remembered how i was given a drugged wine”
” I remembered I made the mistake of trusting bimpe ”
” do I really know what she is up to again today?”
” I just hope I’m save”
” or should I drop the package with the gateman to deliver it to her?”
” I think that one will be better”
” but what if she reports me to Henry or Betty again?”
” I don’t think bimpe is actually sick”
“but what if she is truly sick?”
” should I go inside? or call her on phone to meet me outside?”
” what if she had place a charm at the entrance and she is just waiting for me to cross over?
” what if she forcefully lock me up in the house?”
” what if she has another ulterior plans and motives?”
” I will make sure I didn’t eat or taste anything in that house”
” I will make sure I didn’t even sit down”
I stopped thinking and walked close to the gate. The gateman opened the door for me and told me to enter. with much fear in me, I knocked on the main door and heard adebimpe’s voice from inside 2 minutes later saying “who is there?”, I replied ” it’s me onihaxy”. she came closer to the door as I could hear her foot steps from outside. she opened the door and I entered. I looked at the gown she was putting on and it was exactly the same thing with what she wore in my dreams when I dreamt of her recently. “This is a bad omen”, I thought to myself as I followed her into the living room.

BIMPE: welcome onihaxy, thank you so much.

ME: you are welcome Adebimpe. *****handed over her package to her*****

BIMPE: please have your seat and let me entertain you.

ME:No need for that adebimpe, I won’t be staying for long. in fact, I need to start going now as I have an urgent client to meet up with this night.

BIMPE: ****Smiled at me ***** haba onihaxy, when did you started having clients?

ME: I’m serious bimpe, My bank gave me a target of 2 million naira deposit, I I have to meet up with someone this evening who will bring the deposit. in fact, I was on my way when your husband called me. I hold him in a very high esteem. otherwise, I wouldn’t have honored his message.

BIMPE: you aren’t a good liar onihaxy. you and I know that the clients and targets of a thing is nothing but lies.

ME: I have to go now bimpe.

BIMPE: Hold on and sit down, we have something urgent to discuss and its very important that we discuss it today.

ME: What is it? and why can’t we discuss it later, maybe on phone.

BIMPE: it can’t wait onihaxy, its a matter of life and death.

ME: *****scared***** life and death?, what is it all about?

BIMPE: if you want to listen, please sit down.

ME: *****sat down*******

BIMPE: ****smiled**** henry and I are planning a family Christmas vacation , I don’t know if you can come along with us, all your expenses will be taken care of.

ME: Vacation?, to where?

BIMPE: Miami. please!!!!!

ME: Is this the matter of life and death you are talking about?

BIMPE: No, I’m not there yet, let’s discuss this one first.

ME: Ok, I won’t be able to come along because my fiancee and I already planned how to spend the Xmas break, we are going to akure and ekiti respectively. so, tell me the life and death issue.

BIMPE: Ok, there is also another arrangement for my delivery in USA. I should be travelling when my pregnancy is 8 months old, please can you come with me?,

ME: why me?, why not Henry?

BIMPE: I just want you to be with me during delivery. we would arrange it as if we are travelling for separate missions and end up hooking up since we are in the same region and you are my only family around.

ME: what about my job?.

BIMPE: you can apply for a leave now. please onihaxy, just do this for me. please.

ME: I don’t think that will be possible, you know I just joined the bank as a permanent staff, I’m not entitled for any leave until after 11 months of working, that is it.

BIMPE: *****sad face***** oooooooooooh, there should be amother way now, I just want you to be with me during the delivery.

ME: is that the matter between life and death?

BIMPE: I’m sorry I lied, I just needed to get your attention. please now onihaxy?

ME: And what do I tell my fiancee?, where will I tell her I got the money to travel from?

BIMPE: you can tell her that its a sponsored trip by your bank or an NGO

ME: ok, I will get back to you later. let me start going home now.

BIMPE: Haba onihaxy, you didn’t even ask about the baby in my womb, its unfair ooooo.

ME: Ok, I’m sorry, how is the baby?

BIMPE: He is kicking fine.

ME: ******stood up****** my regards to henry when he comes back

BIMPE: wait onihaxy, I heard that you and Betty discussed about you meeting Henry’s father.

ME: yeah. we did.

BIMPE: SO, what are the arrangements on ground towards the meeting?

ME: We decided to wait till she is back so that we can all sit down and strategize.

BIMPE: That’s cool. I hope you know it won’t be an easy thing sha. considering the fact that she had been engaged to someone else before she travelled.

ME:Yeah I know, but I just believed there will be a way out.

BIMPE: you see now?, if only you had listened to me in the past, it wouldn’t have been complicated to this extent.

ME: listen to you as how?

BIMPE: let me take you to an Alfa who will perfect everything spiritually and Henry’s father will have no other choice than to like you but you refused.

ME: I just don’t engage in all these spiritual house things.

BIMPE: Ok oooo. its not too late sha, anytime you think about it and you are ready, let me know.

ME: I heard you. let me start going now.

BIMPE: wait onihaxy!!!!!!!.

ME: bimpe!!!, I can’t wait any longer, if there is any other thing to discuss, let’s discuss it on phone or chat.
I had to force myself out of bimpe’s grip by insisting not to wait any longer, I got up and started walking towards the door while BIMPE was walking behind me. As I was about opening the door, Adebimpe pulled me back and kissed me……

EPISODE 27.

We are at the first week of December and Christmas was all over the air, our bank was designed at the entrance and inside the banking hall, arrangements towards the end of the year Christmas party celebration commenced. Committees were set up in the bank to organize various activities like game competition, beauty pageant, welfares to the orphanages and lots more. At the beginning of the second week, arrangement towards the intake of the incoming project staffs started. An office was provided and I could see furniture’s and computers being moved into the room. new people had been invited for interview two weeks earlier and rumours has it that 60% of the temporary staffs would be from the previous crew whom I worked together with when I was a temporary staff while 40% will be new set of people entirely. Names were compiled and people were sent text messages to go to lekki for their offer letter and resume the following Monday which was December 20th.
The guys In my unit started jubilating because the workload on us would be reduced because the project would be taking place in my unit, others were happy because lots of new fishes would be introduced into the river and it was like a ritual in my bank where permanent staffs would always look up to project periods to catch new set of babes who would be recruited for the project.
In the morning of the second day which was Tuesday, we had a general meeting in my unit and FUNMI was a guest in the meeting, she entered in the course of the meeting and she walked to the front of the podium after when my unit head recognized her presence. We all clapped for her as she stood up and looking stunning in a nice suit and Brazilian hair. “chaiiii, FUNMI never seize to disappoint at all”. she appreciated everyone for our works from onset and she appraised the hardworking staffs with promises that the management was watching us, she went further to appeal to all of us to cooperate and assist the incoming staffs especially the fresh ones because we are the one hosting them as the project belongs exclusively to our unit, she begged us to put anyone with challenges through and also encourage and motivate them to work harder. And lastly, she said the project staffs would be divided into 5 teams comprising of 10 people each and as a result of that, 5 people would be selected among us to be team leads throughout the project and she begged everyone not to be sad in case the appointment of the team lead doesn’t favour them while emphasizing that it doesn’t come with any additional salary, its just a temporary role to lead the new staffs towards achieving the bank’s goals. She ended her speech by reminding us about the end of the year party and begged us to prepare well for it and we all clapped for her while she left the meeting room. We discussed many other issues in the meeting before it was brought to an end. As I was about leaving the meeting room, my friends in the unit and some other people started teasing me and they started planning to place a bet on me. one of them said ” let’s place a bet, I can bet it with all the money in my account that onihaxy is going to be one of the team leads” , another person said to the first speaker ” you are right ooooooo, I never thought of it ooooo, but come to think of it, if onihaxy is going to be a team lead, then he must leave his present desk in front of funmi’s office to stay with the new staffs in the office provided for them and I don’t think FUNMI is ready to let him go”, they continued to argue until they both agreed on a bet of N5,000 and the first guy said to me “onihaxy, please beg FUNMI to make you a team lead, let me chop this boy’s money abeg”. I just laughed as I left there and returned to my office in other to continue with my job for the day. At around 10am, Betty called me on phone to inform me that she would be coming back to Nigeria on the 23rd of December and that she would be coming straight to my place before going to visit henry, I was so happy and I screamed out loudly that the gossip crew in my office began to look at me in an awkward way. I was so overwhelm that I was just smiling to myself
“finally, I will be seeing my baby”
” I can’t wait for that day to come”
” it’s just as if I should fast forward the days to 23rd of December”
” I’m very sure that she is going to bring something special for me”
” I’m so lucky to have a girl like Betty”
I was in the midst of my sweet thoughts that I didn’t realize that time had gone and it was break time. I was still working when I received a mail from FUNMI to come over to her office and with lots of joy inside of me, I jumped up from my desk and went into funmi’s office, I pulled out the guest’s chair and sat down.

ME: HI funmi, I received your mail.

FUNMI: I just want to ask if you will be going out for break

ME: yes. I will

FUNMI: Ok, please you will help me with a plate of rice and chicken

ME: smiled no problem

FUNMI: this one that you are smiling since morning, what is happening now?, what is the secret?

ME: I’m just happy for no reason today sha and I don’t know why.

FUNMI: are you sure there is nothing attached to it?

ME: yes, I’m so sure.

FUNMI: I know you won’t say the truth.

ME: *** surprised**** the truth as how?

FUNMI: I know you are happy because your wife is coming back abi?

ME: ****Shocked and began to wonder how she knew**** my wife?, you mean my wife?, how did you know?, why did you think so?

FUNMI: Smiled how many question at a time?

ME: I’m sorry, I’m just curious to know why you said so.

FUNMI: because she has already received a text to resume on Monday, I know you are happy because you will be able to continue from where both of you stopped.

ME: Ok!!!!!, you mean Benita?

FUNMI: yes of course.

ME: ****smiled***** the funny thing is that she hasn’t told that she received any text.

FUNMI: hmmmmmmmmmmm, I know you would deny it. welldone ooo.

ME: ****smiled*******

FUNMI: that reminds me, are you interested in Teamlead role?

ME: ****smiled**** I will appreciate it if I’m given the opportunity to lead people.

FUNMI: Ok, get yourself prepared ahead of Monday then.

ME: **** happy mood***** waooooh, thank you so much FUNMI, I so much appreciate.

FUNMI: you are welcome.
I left funmi’s office with duo happiness inside of me.
“my dearest Betty is coming back to Nigeria”
” I’m also been appointed as a Teamlead”
” waoooooh, lucky me onihaxy”
I drove out hapilly to the canteen to eat, I gist segun about the latest news about Betty’s arrival and also my appointment as a team lead and he was so happy with me. I finished with my food and drove to the regular eatery where I always buy funmi’s food and I bought her rice and drove back happily to the bank. I returned her food to her and continued with my work till the end of the day. my coworkers on same office with me began to wonder what could be happening to me and why I was happy but they couldn’t figure it out because the rumours of Teamlead appointment hadn’t spread to them yet.
I closed for the day and was about driving home when my joy mood was spoiled by benita’s call.

ME: hello Benita.

BENITA: Hi onihaxy. how are you and how is work today?

ME: Fine

BENITA: I’m so sorry for not calling you all this while, I haven’t been boxed up of recent

ME: No problem.

BENITA: I want to tell you that I received a text form our outsourcing service provider to come for offer letter this week so as to resume to the bank next week Monday.

ME: ok

BENITA: I will be moving in on Thursday morning. please make sure you clean the house and stock the kitchen with enough food stuffs, you know I don’t like to be starved.

ME: *****chai!!!!!, see how this one is controlling me, how do I kick her away now oooooh God!!!!!!!!*******

EPISODE 28.

ME: eeehm Benita, there is a latest development.

BENITA: latest development?, what is that?

ME: my two cousins got a job here in Lagos and they have resumed work since December 1st and they are living with me. Also, one of my friends in Mushin had accommodation problem and he had joined me to stay for the main time pending the time he will resolve his problem. so, we are now four guys in the house and I don’t know if you will be able to manage among us.

BENITA: haaa!!!, four guys including you?

ME: yes.

BENITA: I don’t think I will be able to manage among you guys oooo, especially the three strange guys. if they are people I knew before, it would have been better.

ME: Eeeyahh

BENITA: or is there a way the other 3 guys can be staying in the parlour so that you and I can stay in the room?

ME: That will be somehow difficult Benita. you know that both bathroom and wardrobe are in the room, only the kitchen is located in the parlour. they will also need to access both the wardrobe and bathroom on daily basis.

BENITA: haaaa, what will I do now?

ME: maybe you should try to talk to that your sister you were staying with before, maybe she can help .

BENITA: That one?, lailai, we insulted each other the day I was moving out of her house, I can never go there again.

ME: Huuuuuuh, what about your friends back then in bank?, maybe you should talk to any of them, they might accommodate you for the main time.

BENITA: ooooooh God!!!!, ok, let me discuss with Amaka, I will give you feedback later.

ME: ooooh, that’s good.

BENITA: and if she can’t help, that means I will forget about the job because I don’t have any other person to stay with.

ME: I pray you find a solution from Amaka. please don’t turn down the job, I have misses you and really want to be seeing your face again.

BENITA: Alright dear, thanks so much.
I ended the call with Benita and couldn’t help it but to laugh out loudly.
” see this badluck girl ooooo”
” s-x, she didn’t allow”
” romance, she would refuse”
” her own is just to eat my food, position herself at the front seat of the car without any benefit”
” she doesn’t touch her salary anymore as I took over every responsibilities”
” At the end of the day, she would go back to her man for s-x while I was always at the losing end.”
” enough of endless temptations”
” now, she want to spoil the atmosphere between Betty and I”
” nonsense!!!!”.
I started the car engine and I drove back hone with laughter. I got home and updated segun on phone about what transpired between Benita and I.

ME: hello SEGE.

SEGE: how far onihaxy?

ME: I dey ooo. Benita called me this evening after the good news from Betty and FUNMI.

SEGE: what did she say?

ME: She said she got a message from the bank to resume on Monday too for the project and she told me that she would be moving in to my place on Thursday.

SEGE: move in to your place?, when Betty will be coming back next week?, what kind of game are you trying to play onihaxy and how do you intend to contain both of them?

ME: I said to her that there is a new development and that I have 2 cousins and a friend staying with me presently just as you told me to do.

SEGE: that’s good of you. and what was her response and reaction?

ME: she said I should try and discusses with the guys to occupy the living room while she and I remain in the bedroom.

SEGE: Haha, this girl is becoming something else oo, dictating to you in your house?

ME: I tire ooooo

SEGE: and what did you tell her?

ME: I told her that it will be impossible because we all have to share both bathroom and wardrobe which are located in the bedroom.

SEGE: nice response.

ME: she later said she would contact one of her friends to see if she could help. and in case she couldn’t get any help, she would reject the offer.

SEGE: that is just the best thing for her to do. abi of what importance was she to you in the house in the first place ?, you are just too cool for my liking onihaxy. if it were to be me, I can’t stay too long in the kind of dangerous friend zone, especially when it involved us sharing same bed.

ME: hmmmmm

SEGE: but all the same, its cool now that you are getting wiser. start preparing for the arrival of your wife.

ME: thanks jaree.

SEGE: And if I were you, I will start clearing anything connecting to FUNMI and BIMPE that can incriminate you.

ME: Yeah, that is true. I will start that immediately.

SEGE: Ok, that’s good.

ME: Let’s chats tomorrow, I want to sleep because I need to wake up very early.

SEGE: No wahala. take care.
I ended the chats and I started clearing all incriminating text messages and chat conversations from my phone as well as removing all the female leftover items of Benita from every part and corner of the room.

EPISODE 29.

it was Monday the following week which was December 20th, Benita had resumed work because her friend agreed to accommodate her for the duration of the project. The previous staffs whom we worked together in the last project began to hang around, discussing and Chating with one another. the new ones among them sat down lonely on the seats, busy looking around while some were pressing phones all over the places. some started snapping selfies at the bank walkway and when I saw them, I was like ” chaiii, dem go take today say una be bankers”. At around 12 pm which was break time, I decided to go to the office provided for them to see what was happening. I met them seated I rows and the unit head was addressing them, I picked up one of the chairs to see what was happening there. our Unit head saw me and he called me out, I stood up from the seat and walked towards the front of the office to meet him. He faced the crowd and said to them ” like I said earlier guys, if you are so dedicated with your work and you displayed a high level of integrity, the bank will in turn appreciate you and here is a testimony from the last project. onihaxy was also a temporary staff like you in the last project and his diligence spoke for him and he was confirmed as a permanent staff of the bank among nine other people. so, the bank is watching every one of you” .
he turned to me and said “onihaxy, you can go back to your seat”. I felt somehow as everyone began to stare at me as I was walking back to my seat and I was ashamed. The unit head continued with his statement and told them that work will commence properly on the 2nd of January the next year and that they will be spend the two weeks in Microsoft application trainings for those who can’t use Microsoft excel as well as proper training on the job role. he encouraged the existing staffs among them to blend and train the fresh ones on any area of difficulties . he also told them that they would be divided into five groups the following day and their log in identifications would be created for them to access the computer, he also talked about teamleads that would be appointed to coordinate each teams while urging them to cooperate with their team leads because any bad reports from the Teamlead will lead to sanctioning as the team leads have the right to issue queries to any erring members.
my unit head left the podium and our project supervisor also came out to address everybody. he buttressed the points of the unit head and encouraged everyone to be diligent in their work as the bank won’t tolerate any error from anyone. he told them its either 100% accuracy or zero percent. He was still speaking when I checked my time and realized that my break was over. I left their office and went back to my office. on getting to the workway, I saw FUNMI coming towards me and we exchanged greetings. She said she sent me a mail but I didn’t turn up and I apologized to her that I was at the office of the new project staffs to greet my old friends and she told me that she was also going there to address them. we departed and I went back to my office.
The next morning after the connect meeting, some people in my unit started to guess who the five team leads to be selected would be. Some smart and intelligent people started boasting around that they must be part of the team lead. The two guys that placed a bet on me previously came to meet me and they were asking if I was part of the Teamlead or not, I just smiled and told them to wait for the list by 10am. the first guy told the other guy ” you see?, ano tell you?, onihaxy even knows the time that the list will be out” the other one replied and said ” let’s just wait till then, I’m sure onihaxy can never be part of the team lead”. as we were about to leave the conference hall where we always have our meetings, our project supervisor came inside the hall with a list and he told everybody to seat down and listen, we all sat down like people awaiting ministerial list.
” Like we said earlier yesterday that the new project staffs will be divided into 5 teams A, B, C, D, and E respectively today, the management has decided to pick 5 members out of you as team leads. please, I want every other people to cooperate with the chosen ones so as to work together in meeting the organization goals.”
He opened the paper on his hand and called out names of four guys to lead team A, B, C and D, everyone was restless and uncomfortable as he was about to call the name of the last team lead and finally, he said “Onihaxy, you will be the one to lead team E”. There were further discussions before he left the conference room.
People started murmuring with different talks. some said ” didn’t I tell you?, I know onihaxy will be part of them since his mother is the line manager”, the guy who won the bet came to hug me and was screaming “onihaxy!!!!!!, I know you would make me proud, go on boy” and the haters among them began to grumble
” why would they choose onihaxy as team lead?”
” when some people here have been with the bank for 3 years and they weren’t picked”
” what did he know about the job sef?”
” was he not part of the last project staffs?”
” how come he was picked to lead the same people whom they ones worked together?”
” there must be politics and partial in the selection”
I just laughed at them as I walked out of the room and returned to my office. on getting to my desk, I saw the gossip crew smiling at me and I don’t know why, they began to whisper quietly and I was wondering why they weren’t speaking out loud until I checked the glass at funmi’s office and I saw her inside. I was like “no wonder the jungle was quiet, I never knew the lion was around”.
At break time, the new staffs were divided into there groups and they were givien a desk to work with. My systems were moved to the new office and a desk was provided for me with an office land phone for communication. I introduced myself to my team members and I was getting to meet them one after the other, 50% of them were the people whom we worked together in the last project while the remaining 50% are fresh faces. The ladies in my team are so cute and pretty as they are in different sizes. we finished with the introduction and I gave them the rules of the bank and my own rules.
” coming late will attract queries”
” no one should call me or another person ‘Mr’, call me and one another by name”
” if you want to be absent, inform me four days earlier”
” intimate relationship is not allowed ”
I continued with my speech until I heard the sound of the door and I looked back, I saw my project supervisor and Benita coming inside the room. my supervisor said Benita would be joinig my team and that I should pick someone who would be my sub-teamlead and he/she would be assisting me in some areas.
*******chaiiii, Benita again!!!!!!!!!*********

EPISODE 30.
I went to meet funmi before the close of business for day to request for a five days leave between 27 to 31st , she asked me what I wanted to do with the leave and I said to her that I want to visit my family because I have not seen then for a year. She told me to apply through my unit head and if not granted, I should let her know about it. I went to my unit head to apply for the leave and I told him that it was FUNMI that sent me to meet him. he laughed and said ” see power ooooo, so you have been to my boss before coming to meet me?, so you expect me to deny your request so that FUNMI will put me on heat?,” he later picked his landphone and called FUNMI to confirm what I said. he dropped the phone and said ” Oga onihaxy, you can have your leave ooooo, just make it official to me through mail and copy the project manager and funmi. we both smiled at each other and I returned back to my new office to further interact with my team members. Benita and I waited after the close of business and we discussed about lots of things.

ME: Benita, what happened to team B where you were initially grouped?

BENITA: I don’t know for them ooooo, I think one new person just joined, so I was told to join your team.

ME: that’s cool.

BENITA: I’m so happy that you were made a team lead and I’m happy too that I will be working with you.

ME: Hmmmmmmmmmmm

BENITA: At least, I will be able to work without fear of queries and sanctions.

ME: ****smiled****** see you, expect queries ooooo.

BENITA: because you are the son of query mama abi?, you want make it like mother like son?

ME: what do you expect?

BENITA: so when are you choosing your assistance and who are you choosing?

ME: ***** what type of question is this?****** I don’t know yet ooooo

BENITA: choose me jor, I want to be your assistant.

ME: hmmmmmm, I think the management is planning to choose assistance by themselves from what I heard from other team leads, let’s wait till tomorrow sha.

BENITA: no problem

ME: how far with the place where you are staying, I hope there is no problem with it?

BENITA: there is oooo, I’m not that free compare to your place but I have no choice since you don’t want me to live with you.

ME: its not like that nor Benita. I told you I have new guests.

BENITA: No problems sha.
we discussed for 10 more minutes before we depart and I went back home. After dinner and shower, I engaged segun in a chat.

ME: hi segun

SEGE: How far onihaxy, were you later appointed ad the team lead?

ME: yes oooo. you need to see how some are grumbling that I am a new staff and I should be given such opportunity.

SEGE: it’s allowed, there will always be haters and bad belle no matter what. I told you that your relationship with funmilayo would yield good result. are you now seeing the benefits?

ME: Yes ooooooo. I’m really enjoying it bro. thank you very much

SEGE: you are welcome, I’m just happy for you that you followed my tutorials.

ME: Hmmmmmmmmmmm, badt teacher.

SEGE: you no well

ME: That reminds me, Benita was later brought to my team to join us and my unit head told me in her presence to appoint someone who would be my deputy. could you believe that she came to meet me at the close of business that I should appoint her as my assistant?

SEGE: Hell no!!!!! , what is wrong with this girl sef?, so you have appointed her abi?

ME: no oooo , I told her to wait till tomorrow.

SEGE: if you know what is good for you onihaxy, don’t make the mistake of appointing Benita because you are going to put problems on your head. As a team lead, you are expected to be firm with all but Benita would push to be fair with her and others might use the opportunity to disrespect you. another reason is that it will appear as if both of you are into relationship because I can sense that she will start carrying herself with so much pride. Thirdly, she is going to cause fight between you and FUNMI because FUNMI would definitely get jealous of both of you.

ME: you are right oooo, so what do you suggest that I do now?

SEGE: just tell her that you were told that your assistant must be a male and there is nothing you can do about it. just use your brain onihaxy
