    Some neighbours can be naturally troublesome. Reminds .e if my neighbour who refused to pay the woman sweeping our compound. Imagine him giving an excuse that it’s “those who who have a car that brings in sand” what an excuse! This is d same man who cursed his mother-inlaw to her face. He is in the habit of abusing, cursing his wife almost on a daily basis. I have a big gen which I use to pump water for everyone’s use whenever there’s no power supply. He has too but will not pump n when he does its only for like 5mins. I think hr would have told the wife to store water at that particular time. We used to lock our gate but ever since he moved in he has been leaving the gate open. He hates locking it. He has not paid his electricity bill ever since he moved in July.Learnt he’s a CAC prophet. Imagine that. He’s owing so many people in the area. Prophet Kehinde as he is called is a terrible being. There’s no peace in his life n he has none to offer.
