It happened that on Monday, Emeka came to the bar around 11.00pm in the night, and asked the barman about the day’s account, but Emeka was not pleased with the account the barman rendered. So he pounced on the guy like lion, and started beating ‘my God’ from him.
Now Emeka Enyiocha’s brother, who had been standing by decided to intervene. He told Emeka that the boy was an orphan and treating him that way was sheer wickedness. Angry Emeka on hearing this, pursued his younger brother into the streets that night with a stick and dealt with him seriously. He left his brother with a cut on the face and a broken arm.
Those who reside in the neighbourhood came out to beg Emeka to go calm down and go home, but he chose to head for Bode Thomas police station to have his brother and the barman arrested.On sighting the Policemen, Onyeka and Maduabuchi ran into one of the rooms in the adjacent guest house where a guest was lodging to hide. Emeka was not perturbed at all, as he led the policemen into the lady’s room to bundle them out and pushing the lady to a corner for asking what the problem was.
The boys were giving another round of severe beating before being arrested that night. They were later released from Police custody on Tuesday.
A neighbor to Emeka’s bar stated that between 2012 and now when Emeka opened that bar, he has employed close to 18 different people. In fact it was after Emeka Enyiocha posted the last vacancy notice and no one came to apply for the job that he brought his younger brother to work for him, who then also brought the orphan boy from their village.
If they are stealing his money, I feel sorry for him, because times might be a bit tough for him now he has another baby, but there are more mature ways to deal with this kind of issue.
