We are good together as a people! On a certain Tuesday, in October 2022, I was troubled to meet a deadline, my assignment was to get a past question on a Basic Education Certificate Examination BECE held in Nigeria in 2021, the task was given to me by Adelle, the lead creator of Africaniwa. Having searched several Public Junior secondary schools within the Abuja metropolis, I had to sit down under a tree, been Architect in retrospect a lover of nature, I took down my throat a chilled coke.
At the last school I visited looking for the question, I was told the best place for the paper to be gotten is at the BECE/NECO headquarters, I took a taxi, rushed down there, and requested if I can check their archives, they permitted me, I think this was based on my look and the concern I placed in searching for the paper, lo and behold I couldn't get it. After being directed to many schools, offices, and other resource centers I couldn't get one. I decided to start going home, as I was hungry and tired.

On my way home, I saw some students, and my spirit told me to get down and ask these children, I have always followed my mind when it comes to matters like this. I did highlight the car. Upon asking, some of them have the papers but their houses are a bit distant from the school, and many can only bring it along the next day, which will fall short of my time frame to produce the paper. I thereby asked the students if some of their students will still be in school where I can ask them, and they said yes, I find my way to trekking to the school.
Upon answering all questions asked been a visitor, as at this time it was past 4 pm. I was directed straight away to the school Principal Mrs. Fash, I identified myself and initiated my request and the good woman call for the class teacher of the subject in question, History, we could not get it at that point in time, and she checked her personal archives, none was found, at this point, I somewhat lost hope, she engineered my lifting by sending for one of the boys whose house is close by, ask him if he still has the past question the boy said yes, Oh what a soothing to the heart answer!
The boy is one of the best wingers on the school football team, ran in a Usain Bolt speed, rushed home, and brought the paper, handed it over to me, as I gaze at the Principal, I look at the paper with the same vigor. I was so happy and smiling while thanking Mrs. Fash for such assistance. Telling her she didn't even know me from Adam, and she decided to assist me in my search, her response was so soothing, "I have children too, they will not always be by me, they will travel, go to school and all that..." then I remember my mum assisting people like she knew them beforehand. I at that point concluded in my spirits my Mum has poured out the water, and I the son is threading on wet soil.
