Axemen

John’s older brother, also studying in Jos, hung around with a group of Axemen—members of the Black Axe fraternity—who partied hard and bought drugs and cars.

In Wilks’ and Ogot’s debut game, the V-Reds secured an 80-67 win in a four point game over the Acadia Axemen, improving their record to 8-1 for the season.

While the Axemen have some legitimate excuses such as a lineup depleted by injuries, their recent struggles have to be concerning development for a team that has looked like one of the best teams in the country at times earlier this season.

Behind them would have been axemen and men with javelins as well as archers.
