The unbelievable 24 hours of My life

in Hive Naija2 months ago



‎In southern part region of Nigeria specifically Akwa-Ibom State , during the third term holiday in the year2010 (the longest holiday of the academic year). Student from across the state travel to their desired place for holidays some to Uncle's/Aunt's while some spent theirs at home and enroll on holidays lesson.

‎ But my own case was deferent because I have to travel all the way to Cameroon through the dark Atlantic on a boat to meet with my Parents for holidays, the journey started smooth on a Thursday morning it takes about 5 to 7 get there though it always not easy to sail through, but as a sailor u must expect more.

‎ The boat launch as early as 8 am and for me it was a big move to a destination of great expectations of seeing my parent, but two hours later our boat stopped.
‎What is wrong ?? ( ask a passenger )
‎The engine is bad ; ( says the captain)
‎He tried the best he can to fix the engine but failed, view hours later a mighty storm showed up that almost drown the boat the women started praying and lamenting but I couldn't do anything than to adjust my life jacket.

‎ But to our greatest surprised some fisher men showed up from a far highland and by then it was already late about (9 pm) they took our boat to their highland where we have to pass a night till we get the boat fixed and continue our journey the next day.

‎ your life, it could be good or bad. Narrate what happened and the impact it had on you..

‎ This unforeseen circumstances happened to be my unbelievable 24 hour that made me see the other side of the sea which i haven't seen in my life and there learnt some great story about the highland and the sea.
