Thanks for this article on Uncle Rufus and Mummy Laide. It is as if the story is about my father.

The two wives who lived to old age in his house, probably did so because they had no other place to go when the others were leaving one after the other. Till today, we still ask our mother what she saw back then in a man who already had six wives and 14 children.

The town that emerged after the festival was well laid out and well planned. It had churches, mosques, schools, banks, markets —whatever you needed to build a good community life. The main arteries, the avenues had four lanes with traffic signs— even at that time. Every road, every close had signs, and the numbering was done in such a way that it was difficult to get lost, even for a visitor.
