Akpos vs Prof Wole Soyinka (Nobel Laureate and one of Nigeria’s intelligentsia): Akpos & Prof Wole Soyinka sitting next to each other on a long flight… Akpos says, “Let’s play a game… I will ask you a question, if you don’t know the answer, you pay me only $5 and if I don’t know the answer, I will pay you $500…” Prof Wole Soyinka says, “You see Akpos, I have no intention at all to obfuscate or envelope you in a state of orgamoga. But son, what’s the average distance from the Earth to the Moon…?” Akpos doesn’t say a word, reaches his pocket, pulls out a $5… Now, it’s Akpos’ turn… He asks Prof: What goes up a hill with 3 legs and comes down on 4 legs? Prof Wole Soyinka searches the net and asks all his smart friends… After one hour he gives Akpos $500… Curious and going nuts, Prof asks, “Well son, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four…?” Akpos reaches his pocket and gives Prof $5..!
