A twist in the Tale: Baba Ifeanyi 's story


Well..this may not qualify as a motivational tale but it is certainly a narration about pursuing your passion with tenacity. This is to simply celebrate DEDICATION (PERIODT!).   
 When Baba Ifeanyi started his chemist business, he started pretty small and in no time prosperity began to beam on him. He started moving steadily up in his "pharmaceutical career" and in no time he started diversifying as he acquired a wine and liquor license. To expand his business "empire", Baba Ifeanyi even rented the second shop from his landlady to accommodate his "vineyard". He started stocking exotic beverages,  Exotic o...I'm talking  fruits flavoured dry gin, caramel flavoured rum and so on.Going by his pharmaceutical pedigree (abi repertoire ni?) We could have sworn he was mixing these spirits in his shop.
 The news of Baba Ifeanyi mixology aptitude spread far and beyond. His alcohol business thrived and in no time he phased out his chemist business. He took this liquor business very seriously... perhaps too seriously. As a customer centric individual he took personalized customer service to another level. He  would often times (all the time o) sample these beverages and in what seemed like a competition to outclass his patrons, each time a customer bought liquor, Baba Ifeanyi would return/reciprocate the favour by helping himself to one. Baba Ifeanyi's love for liquor had surpassed his business acumen. It was personal! and therein laid the problem!!
It was only a matter of time Baba Ifeanyi   eventually ( mu shop gbe)drank his business dry.

And then! Out of nowhere like the phoenix Baba Ifeanyi rose from its(his?) ashes with well... blazing flames. He got an employment with Eagle Aromatic distilleries in Otta!!💃💃 although conflicted on his Job description, we can only guess that with such dexterity in alcohol beverage consumption; He is most likely to be a quality control officer at the distillery. Now! This is a classic fairytale, I mean Baba Ifeanyi had his happily thereafter: living out his dream surrounded with so much liquor. 
While all and sundry are beyond happy with his new career path, we can't help but get a little worried about lightning striking same spot twice. We sincerely hope and pray Baba Ifeanyi won't drink the distillery dry...this time around. 

In conclusion our dreams are valid maybe we shouldn't stop pursuing them...Ire o✌️
