Long time ago, there lived two friends, Efe and Ese. Efe was a busy man who took care of his hut and farmland. He was always going to weed his farm and get palm fronds to fix his leaking thatched roof for the coming raining season.
Ese was very carefree about his farm and hut. He spent all his time gisting, playing games with other neighbours and sleeping. Many times Efe told Ese “please weed your farm land it is has grown lots of weed and also try to repair your roof, the rain is soon to come.’’
“You worry too much for little things that can be done in a day, my friend. I can get them done in a snap of the fingers.” Ese would say.
As time went by, the weeds in Ese’s farm grew taller. One day it started raining heavily. It was then that Ese realized that his farm land and house was in danger.
While Efe sat in his hut, Ese was busy weeding his farm under the rain after he had managed to repair his roof. Ese realized his foolishness and promised never again to postpone any work that required immediate attention.
