Barrister Akpors who’s gone to the village
for Xmas celebration went hunting in a nearby
village.
He shot and dropped a bird, but it fell into a
farmer’s field on the other side of a fence.
As Barrister Akpors climbed over the fence, an
elderly gentleman asked him what he was doing.
He responded, “I shot a duck and it fell in this
field, I’m going in to retrieve it.”
The old farmer replied, “This is my property, and
you are not coming over here.”
Arrogant Akpors said, “I am one of the best trial
attorneys in this country, and, if you don’t let me
get that duck, I’ll sue you and take everything!”
The old farmer smiled and said, “Apparently, you
don’t know how we do things here. We settle
small disagreements like this with the Three-Kick
Rule.”
Barrister Akpors asked, “What is the three-Kick
Rule?”
The Farmer replied, “Well, first I kick you three
times and then you kick me three times, and so
on, back and forth, until someone gives up.”
Barrister Akpors quickly thought about the
proposed contest and decided that he could easily
take the old farmer.
He agreed to abide by the local custom.
The old farmer slowly walked up to him.
His first kick planted the toe of his heavy work
boot into Akpor’s groin and dropped him to his
knees.
His second kick nearly wiped Akpors’ nose off his
face.
Barrister Akpors was flat on his belly when the
farmer’s third kick to a kidney nearly caused him
to give up.
He eventually summoned every bit of his will and
managed to get to his feet and said,
“Okay, you old farmer, now it’s my turn.”
The farmer smiled and said,
“Now, I give up. You can have the duck.”

Moral: No matter how well
educated you are, RESPECT
YOUR ELDERS!
