Doubting Akpos

Akpos belonged to a society in the church. The society was expected to present a drama on the up coming youth talent day.

The leader of the society came up with an interesting drama and he needed people to act as the Virgin Mary, Joseph and Thomas. Since its a group responsibility, the members were given the opportunity to nominate the best people to partake in the drama based on their real life character.

First the leader asked, "Who will play the character, Joseph?"

All the members chorused, "Bro Frank can do it better!"

"Ok, Frank" said the leader, "come over here."

Frank obeyed and strolled out.

"Who do we chose to play the Virgin Mary character?" asked the leader again.

The members chorused again, "Sister Temi"

Sister Temi was asked to come out and she did.

Finally, "Who do we chose to play Thomas?"

The members quickly shouted, "Bro Akpos! Bro Akpos! Bro Akpos!"

Akpos, excited, came out quickly.

The Leader looked at Akpos and doubted if he could play the role of Thomas.

Akpos, noticing his leader's hesitance, asked, "What makes you people think sister Temi is a virgin and can play the role of the Virgin Mary?"

The leader replied, "Well, she dresses decently and I have never seen her with a man before. She is also very dedicated to God."

Akpos retorted, "No way! Until I put my finger in there, I will never believe!"
