Pregnant Husband

Isaac Nkrumah Darko

Obiba, a rich man and Aba are lovers who plan to marry in the future, but Obiba jilts Aba after he has caused her an irreparable harm and goes for another woman whom he marries. In a state of emotional pains, Aba curses Obiba for causing her an irreparable harm and for jilting her. Consequently, Aba’s curse makes Obiba lose his riches. In an attempt to acquire riches again, Obiba consults a goddess who makes him rich. One day, Obiba slaps a mad woman who snatches his bag from him, but the mad woman is the goddess in disguise. To take vengeance, the goddess goes to Obiba in the exact form and image of his wife and makes romance with him while Obiba does not know that she is not his real wife and that she is an impostor. What transpires between the goddess and Obiba during the romance session makes Obiba have a baby in his belly. Medical tests carried out on him prove that there is a baby in his belly to the surprise of all and sundry. How Obiba, a husband has a baby in his belly and how the baby survives in his belly and comes out of his belly is what the story unfolds.

The Top 10 Poets – The English -...

Alfred Lord Tennyson, Christina...

The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
 
But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
 
In this volume the English language reveals itself in a scale and depth that few others can compare with.  It seems to be an advantage to be able to choose from over a million words and yet, it is not the words but the way in which they are used that resonate with us all.  Is there some bond between the English and writing poetry?  Maybe, maybe not, but let us celebrate these poems down the ages, not as one nation’s hoard but humanity’s gift.
