AmaBishop

The church finds itself embroiled in scandals of many kinds lately. For one man, it's the lack of single men in the church. For another, it's the refusal of women to wear pants to church. Another is not happy that the deacon has been acting funny and is threatening legal action. Another complains that his Sunday School teacher doesn't know how to pronounce Gethsemane. And some are wondering what happened to all the money they've been giving as donations every week.

1st Wife vs 2nd Wife (Drama)

It was an early morning when Chidi woke up to leave his house with his two suitcases full of belongings. He had left a note to his first wife on the kitchen table informing her that he had gone away in search of peace leaving behind his wife and Maria, their daughter.

He would like to return after two weeks with new enlightenment and hopefully would be willing to listen to reason and do what he has always wanted in the past: to legitimise the relationship with the second wife. Before leaving, he got into a cab waiting at the corner of his street with all his luggage. The driver was amused enough by the poorly packed bags of an elderly man. He decided to pick him up expecting a good amount of money.
