Chapter one
Chief machero, the oil mogul
This is chief machero. He is well know in the riverine kingdom of wotaland where he is very successful and big time oil mogul. Most people in the kingdom of wotaland are large scale fisherman and farmers who made all their wealth from sales of a huge variety of fishes and crops.
In wotaland, a rich man wasn't defined by beautiful clothes or flashy cars, no. A man who had a large family and many farms with a large number of servants was alway consider to be a rich man. Then, rich people were always expected to be happy and without any problems. Chief machero happened to be one, if not the richest personality in the kingdom of wotaland. Though farming and fishing business was the order of the day in wotaland, chief machero however didn't make his money from either farming or fishing.
Chief machero was a dealer in Palm oil and vegetable oil. Though he was a farm owner and landlord but unlike most farm owner, he didn't always sell his crops, instead he processed them into Palm oil and vegetables oil in his gigantic oil mill, and whenever the oils were ready, he poured them into cans and had them exported to Europe and the sub-region of West Africa. Chief machero had a lot of money and he was without any doubt, a very rich man and even among the caste of the rich he was seen in the light of both a patriarch and a godfather.
Remember, I wotaland rich people were suppose to be very happy and without any problems; but not Chief machero. Though chief machero was happy, he would have been happiest if he has a son. He had everything a rich man should have, but not a son. He owned big farms with many servants working on them. He also had about thirty men working in his oil mill.
