Reading and comprehension

In the village of Ogudu, there was a man whose name was Akogun. The villager feared him not because he was a great hunter but because people believed he had the magical power of making human being and animals to sleep.

One day, a small boy Abogunje boasted publicly that Akogun could not make him sleep. The elders then arranged for the contest.

Akogun did all he could but the magical power had no effect on the boy. The chief then made the small boy one of his advisers. He was also given the title of Abore of Ogun land.
