How Some Armed Robbers Saved Me From Hunger

My father died when i was still in secondary school. My poor mother struggled hard to see my siblings and i through the university. My younger brother and i got admitted into UniPort.

One day my younger brother traveled to Enugu and food from my mother who was a trader. Unfortunately for me, he spent more than five days in Enugu because he was waiting for my mother to raise enough money for our feeding and other things.

I stayed for two days without food because all the food in the house has did finished. At night some armed robbers can to our hostel lodge. They stayed robbing door to door. When i noticed what was going on, i opened the door and lay on the floor faced down

When they got to my room, they saw that the door was already opened and i was on the floor too. They asked me where my money was? That i should go and bring my money or they will shut me. I told them that i had no money that for the two days now I have not eaten anything. I told them that my brother traveled to Enugu to get money has not returned for some days now.

The armed robbers looked around my room and saw nothing but tinny bed and a radio set. One of them put his hands inside his Puckett and brought out two thousand naira and gave to me and they left.

The next morning everybody in the hostel was carrying and complaining how the robbers took all their money and left. While i was celebrating and thanking God.
