If bad luck had a face, it would probably look like Tega’s: weary, confused, and perpetually saying, "Why me, Lord?" From the very beginning, life decided to hand him a catalogue of misfortunes, and let’s just say, the hits keep coming.
From Good Samaritan to Jailbird
Tega’s troubles began when he tried to do the right thing. Imagine getting arrested for helping someone? That’s exactly what happened when he intervened during a protest to help a helpless victim, and boom, false assault charges landed him behind bars. His father had to cough up serious cash to secure his release. Great start, right?
A tragedy that changed everything
Just when you thought the worst was behind him, a violent robbery changed the course of Tega’s life. He was attacked, and his father, who tried to protect him, got stabbed. Sadly, the injuries proved fatal. Tega lost the only constant in his life, and the only person who had his back.
Family drama and a missing corpse
What’s worse than losing your dad? How about being harassed by extended family members accusing you of botching his funeral rites? And to make things even messier, his dad’s body mysteriously went missing from the morgue. In a desperate attempt to recover it, Tega ended up striking a shady deal with the local drug dealer.
Inheriting the “Family Business”
While most people inherit houses or cars, Tega inherited his father’s debts, complete with daily visits from the motor park chairman’s henchmen, who seem to think threats and beatdowns are a normal repayment reminder. Every day, Tega has to cough up cash or risk catching hands.
Love was the one good thing… until it wasn’t
In the middle of all the madness, there was Funbi, Tega’s one ray of sunshine. She brought balance, warmth, and hope. That is… until Jacinta came knocking with a baby bump and a story: Funbi was out the door before he could say “DNA test.”

NNN: Tega’s newest gamble
Heartbroken, broke, and barely hanging on, Tega turned to a new money-making scheme — the infamous “NNN.” You know, one of those “invest small, cash out big” setups that smell a lot like a Ponzi scheme. But guess what? It was working… for a while. So well, in fact, that Tega convinced half of Ajakoro to pour in their life savings. Millions are now tied up, and we all know how these stories end. When NNN inevitably crashes, guess who’s going to carry the blame (and maybe a few slaps too)? Yup, our guy, Tega.
At this point, we’re afraid to ask what else life might throw at Tega. A flood? Alien abduction? Who knows! All we can do is watch it all unfold, one disaster at a time. Tune in to The Yard every weekday at 8 PM on Africa Magic Showcase to keep up with Tega’s never-ending string of misfortunes.
