AKPOS......

Akpos was looking for a job. He noticed
there was an opening at the local zoo.
Upon inquiry, he discovered the zoo had a
very unusual position that they wanted to
fill.
Apparently their gorilla had died, and until
they could get a new one, they needed
someone to dress up in a gorilla suit and
act like a gorilla for a few days. Akpos was
to just sit, eat, and sleep. Of course, his
identity would be kept a secret, and no
one would be the wiser, thanks to a very
fine gorilla suit. The zoo offered good pay
for this job, so the man decided to do it.
Akpos tried on the suit and sure enough,
he looked just like a gorilla.
They led him to the cage; he took a
position at the back of the cage and
pretended to sleep. But after a while, he
got tired of sitting so he walked around a
little bit, jumped up and down and tried a
few gorilla noises. The people watching
him seemed to really like that. When he
would move or jump around, they would
clap and cheer and throw him peanuts.
And Akpos loved peanuts. So he jumped
around some more and tried climbing a
tree. That seemed to really get the crowd
excited. They threw more peanuts. Playing
to the crowd, he grabbed a vine and swung
from one side of the cage to the other.
The people loved it and threw more
peanuts. “Wow! This is great,” he thought.
Akpos swung higher and the crowd grew
bigger. He continued to swing on the vine,
getting higher and higher and then all of a
sudden, the vine broke! He swung up and
out of the cage, landing in the lion’s cage
that was next door. He panicked.
There was a huge lion not twenty feet
away, and it looked very hungry. So Akpos
in the gorilla suit started jumping up and
down, screaming and yelling, “Help, help!
Get me out of here! I’m not really a gorilla!
I’m a man in a gorilla suit! HELP!”
The lion quickly pounced on Akpos, held
him down and said, “AKPOS, NO FEAR, IT’S
ME CHIJIOKE be quiet!” You’re going to
make both of us loose our job.
