THE STORY OF MICHAEL THE MILLIONAIRE
Once upon a time in Ondo State Nigeria, there lived a man called Michael who was into timber wood sales business in other to make money & feed he's family. Michael had four sons & two daughters with one wife respectively. But his timber wood business wasn't giving him enough to feed his family, so he decided to seek advice from he's colleague & bossom friend named Steven whom is very rich & makes enough daily sales from he's timber business & can feed a whole community off it.
Hi Steven: Michael said & Steven responded with a rude reply bcos he has told his friend what he needed to do if he wants to be successful in the timber sales business but Micheal mocked him bcos he didn't want to involve rituals and traditional sacrifices in he's business bcos his a Christian & a Catholic, unlike like Steven who doesn't believe in anything else except fettish traditional gods whom has blessed him in his timber business. But due to the hardship & suffering of not getting rich customers & low sales made him "Michael" decide to seek advice from Steven on how he could make money like him. On a faithful Friday Steven took Michael to visit hes traditional herbalist that did his own sales charm for him. On getting to the shrine of the herbalist named "α»jα» iku ko gba ogun" which is the most powerful herbalist in α»ka, sabo Ondo State. On getting there Steven & Michael greeted the herbalist with a Yoruba slang "Agba Awo αΊΉ ku Ile Baba" meaning "greetings wise one" & he responded with "αΊΈkabo α»mα» mi, αΊΉ wα»le wa, kilogbeyin wa si α»dΓ΄ mi ni α»san yi" meaning "welcome my son & come inside, what brought yall to my place this afternoon" so Michael wanted to go inside with he's shoes on his feet & facing the shrine with he's face but Steven rebuked him saying off your shoes my friend & walk into the shrine with your back. Which Michael quickly & fearfully obeyed bcos he's never heard his friend shout at him in such manner. When they got inside the shrine Michael was frightened by the old human skull & fettish traditional things he saw at the herbalist shrine which made him started reading the Lord's prayer "our father who's at in heaven" in he's heart before the α»jα» iku ko gba ogun the wise/great herbalist rebuked him & told him to stop praying to God in he's heart, that he knew why Steven brought him to he's shrine & it's bcos he wants to be a wealthy timber sales business man, which Micheal responded with fear by nodding his head. The babalawo "herbalist" told Michael that here's the criteria he'll bring in other to start the ritual & sacrifice. Which one of he's sons or he's wife will he he be ready to sacrifice. But Michael said no that it's bcos of he's family that he had agreed to follow he's friend in doing money rituals. So the herbalist consulted the Oracle & the Oracle told him that Michael will have to bring one black goat, two black dove, alligator pepper, bitter cola & kolanut, 1 keg of palmwine, one keg of palmoil, a black male native rooster cock, a black headtie of a virgin & the teeth of a tiger. But Michael didn't know how he could get all these things asked of him by the herbalist which was what he needed for the sacrifice he needed for the money rituals, he was shaking & shocked by the requirements to the extent he was not able to open he's mouth & say a word due to fear, while standing inside the shrine, so he's friend Steven told the baba what if they pay for all these with money bcos they can't possibly get these requirements even in a year. So "α»jα» iku ko gba ogun" once again consulted the Oracle whom told him to accept a sum of 10,000 (ten thousand naira) which Steven didn't hesitate to pay bcos he wanted he's friend to achieve his aim/goals before leaving the shrine. So the herbalist accepted the ten thousand naira (10,000) & went to he's inner chamber to prepare the charm/concurtion which Michael needed to be rich. After 6 hours the herbalist came out of he's inner room & gave Michael two calabash instructing him to put one in he's secret room at home & one in his main timber business shop. That he should make sure no one touches or goes near it for no vivid reason, infact he should hide it, which Michael asked the babalawo (herbalist) why such conditions & the baba told him that anyone who sees or touches it will be death of him (Michael) bcos he didn't provide any of the Oracle's requirements but has paid for it & the Oracle accepted it & also included he's life (Michael) to the requirements as he isn't ready to sacrifice any of he's family so he will take the life of Michael instead if the agreement is breached. Which Michael shouted with a loud scream/exclamation "Ahhhh aiye mi o" meaning "Ah my life" while he was looking at he's friend Steven who didn't even look at Michael's face but was looking at the floor bcos he knew there'll be a term/condition to the ritual sacrifice bcos he also has a clause to he's own too despite using he's wife to make he's wealth before remarring a new wife last year & every August 7 he will always kiss he's late wifes burial ground & sleep on the grave that same night till the next morning or else the Oracle will also strike him to death.
After leaving the herbalist shrine late at night Michael was upset with Steven for not fully telling him the terms & conditions for the money rituals which Steven responded with, if I had told you my friend you wouldn't have agreed to go through the eye of the needle to become wealthy. Every Secret can not be shared with mere words, that Michael shouldn't be offended but be happy that finally he has made it to becoming a wealthy man in their community & business. While getting home Michael did all α»jα» iku ko gba ogun the herbalist & he's friend told him as soon as possible that same night. By the next day while reaching the market/shop where his timber wood business sales was located, over 10 customers was already at he's shop waiting for him, this made Michael Surprised bcos the highest of daily customer he's ever seen is between 2 to 3 people per day but having over 10 customers in the morning alone shocked him to the extent he was stuttering while collecting their quotations for the timber the customers needed to buy for either shop roofing or house roofing. Hotel owners that needed timber for building/roofing, estate builders, company/firm builders, site engineers etc, visited Michael's shop daily to the extent he became so rich that he opened up a business for his wife & sent he's four (4) sons & two (2) daughters to the best private school in Ondo State. Michael became so wealthy to the extent he opened a branch of he's business in Lagos State & became a chieftaincy title holder in his home town in Ondo State.
Michael became a millionaire within the space of one month after he did money rituals which he's friend Steven took him too. One faithful day Michael travelled to Lagos to visit he's stores where he sold different kinds of woods & not just timber woods alone. It's been over 15 years since everything has been going well for him & he's been meeting up with the herbalist criteria & has been renewing he's rituals as usual. He couldn't make it back home the same day like he used too from Lagos State to Ondo State by flight bcos it was raining & thunder/lighting wouldn't allow the flight company & pilot take off for the day till the next day. Michael's main shop was closed up by he's 4th son that day which he couldn't come back home from the travel, bcos it was getting late & he's father has called their mother that he wouldn't be coming home that day till the next day. So he's wife instructed he's son to lock up the shop which he did but went to he's father's inner room to close the window where he saw an old black calabash which he took & showed he's mother because it was only the two of them left in the shop that day, while he's other brothers & sisters was already at home. After seeing the calabash & opening it to see what was inside, they discovered that the calabash was empty & there's nothing inside it so Michael's wife othered he's son to keep it back inside where he found it, which the boy did. Whereby Michael was lodged at a hotel where he was about to sleep before he heard a bell that rang (3) three times & a voice that said I told you not to let anyone see or touch the calabash which was with you but your family has not only touched & see it but has opened it as well, empty you came to my shrine to become wealthy & empty shall you go back to your maker without holding unto any wealth. After hearing the strange voice Michael screamed with agony/pain in Yoruba language "Ahhh mo gbe o" meaning "Ah, I'm finished" and died in the hotel room in Lagos. His corpse was flown back to Ondo State from Lagos State & he was buried in Ondo State & Michael lived 55 years on earth, leaving his wife & 4 (four) sons & 2 (two) daughters behind & in tears mourning their beloved father. He's friend Steven was present as well in he's burial ceremony & vowed to help he's family anytime they're in need of assistance. This is the end of my story titled:
MICHAEL THE MILLIONAIRE.
