Robbers entered a house in Akure, asked for all the money and valuables. After they collected what they could, they gave the man of the house a gun with instructions to shoot his wife. The man got the gun, pointed it at his wife, and hesitated. He was thinking of what he had gone through in life with his wife and how she had suffered and sacrificed for him. He handed back the gun and said, "I am sorry, I can't do this." The boss of the robbers silently grabbed the gun from him and passed it on to the wife to shoot her husband. The wife got the gun and, without any single hesitation, pointed it at her husband's head and pulled the trigger. But, at last, the gun had no bullets in it. The robbers got their gun and walked out of the house laughing.
QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION:
1. If you were the man, what would you do?
2. If you were the wife, what explanation would you give?
3. If you were invited to bring peace, how would you settle it?
