🔥📚👑 Gabriella the Agriculture Queen — Episode 1: “Born to Farm, Struggle to Rise” 👶🏽🌾

📍Scene 1 – Okara Village, Enugu State – April 5, 1995

The red sun glows gently over the green fields of Okara as Chief Emeka Eze, a respected farmer, paces nervously. His wife, Nkechi, is heavily pregnant.

🗣️ Chief Emeka: “Obinna!”

🧔🏾‍♂️ Obinna (now 28): “Yes, Daddy?”

🗣️ Chief Emeka: “Go and bring my car keys.”

🧔🏾‍♂️ Obinna: "Yes, Dad!" (He tosses the keys. Emeka catches them.)

🗣️ Chief Emeka: “Ngozi! Run to the farm and get my phone!”

👧🏾 Ngozi (5 years old): “Yes Daddy!” (She runs barefoot toward the yam field.)

Moments later…

👧🏾 Ngozi: “Daddy, I couldn’t find the phone.”

🗣️ Chief Emeka: “Don’t worry. Forget it.”

(He turns to his wife)

🗣️ “Nkechi, my wife… I’m taking you to the hospital now.” 🚗💨

🏥 3 Hours Later – Hospital Room

A doctor named Dr. Ifeanyi completes the operation. A soft cry fills the room.

👶🏾 Waaaah…

🗣️ Chief Emeka: “My wife… what shall we name her?”

👩🏾‍🦱 Nkechi: “Gabriella… Gabriella Ngozi Eze.”

🗣️ Emeka: “Yes… what a beautiful name. Our Agri-Queen has arrived.” 👑🌾

📆 Flash Forward – 1998

👨🏾‍🦱 Obinna (now 31) carries 3-year-old Gabby on his hip.

🗣️ “Ngozi, Gabby is crying. Bring the pacifier.”

👧🏾 Ngozi (now 8): “Yes, Brother.”

👶🏾 Gabby: “Sister!”

🧔🏾‍♂️ Obinna: “She said her first word!”

👧🏾 Ngozi: “I wish Daddy wasn’t on the farm... I would’ve shared this news with him.” 😢

Two weeks later, Gabby takes her first steps. 👣

🧒🏾 Gabriella meets Ada (1998)

👧🏾 Gabby (3): “Hi Ada!”

👧🏽 Ada (3): “Hi Gabriella!”
