The Power of a Plate of Rice

"The Power of a Plate of Rice" was a story about a gross abuse of power. Mr. Aziza, the principal of a secondary school has cut off Cheta Adu's salary because she has been forced to take 4 days off due to a sick child. Not just a sick child, but one who was on his death bed. This monster of a man has suspended Cheta's salary for 5 months, which has put her in such dire straights that she cannot afford to feed her family. Furthermore, she is a widow and her child depends solely on her. Finally, Cheta Adu arrives at Mr. Aziza's house, eats his dinner in defiance and refused to leave until he releases her salary to her! And it works, Cheta Adu gets her money. Persistance does pay off!
