The condition of Igede Kingdom seems to be worsening on a daily basis. The wind seems to be blowing only sorrows, the land is so quiet that the slightest noise of an insect can be heard aloud. The people are in mourning, the evil happenings in the land has taken a new shape. The mysterious sickness affecting only the male children seems to be the added feature of the upgraded version of the people's sufferings.

An interesting story is added with the help of a picture of a frog. I like frogs.

This story sends the message of how important sacrifice is to the world. The more we think of only ourselves the more we endanger our world.

Beautiful story, I'm glad Ebuka was brave enough to sacrifice his life for his people.

Ebuka was really brave to have step forward for his land but he was favoured by the god's to be crown the king instead.

What a great story.

I must commend Ebuka the leader for giving himself up for the sacrifice, not many would do such.

It turned out to be the only way out for the kingdom... And peace returned eventually.

I love the story and the touch of tradition in it 😊
