Wives of Nendi

[00:00:00]Some months later, Maimun Ngwindi came to the village to judge a cake making competition for the club members.

[00:00:06]Everyone waited to see who had baked the best. And Maimun Ngwindi held up the winning cake.

[00:00:13]It had been baked by none other than Nnende's first wife. She was very pleased and was congratulated by Maimun Ngwindi and the committee members.

[00:00:25]She was applauded heartily by all the people of the village. Not least by Nnende himself.

[00:00:33]Everyone was pleased.

[00:00:36]Maimun Ngwindi cut the cake and sent it round for the men to taste.

[00:00:45]They all took a bit and tasted it.

[00:00:49]"This is good." they said.

[00:00:50]"We must get our wives to make cakes like this."

[00:00:54]And Maimun Ngwindi and Maimun Bowie looked at this once backward village of Nnende and were well satisfied.
