“FEMALE VULCANIZER WORKS WITH HUSBAND IN NSUKKA
“Every day, except on Sundays, the energetic Mrs. Chinelo Ogbonna comes to work at Mechanic Village, dons her work wear and sets out many types and sizes of vehicle tyres one atop the other in front of her husband’s vulcanizing workshop.
She rushes at stopping vehicles, wheel spanner in one hand, ever ready to begin the loosening of a deflated tyre for repair.
Her husband, a wiry fair youth, does not stand akimbo watching in front of his number 40, New Parts Section shop.
He does not assume the pride of a man whose wife is at work with him.
“No, Mr. Ifeanyi Ogbonna is busy already working on a flat tyre, determined to patch it by fire, not with a cold sealant.
He makes as if it is a common virtue in women, to behave like his wife. Don’t be fooled.
He knows he has a unique wife, and he asks me to soften my wonder at this rare form of feminism, and to make-belief she were an ordinary apprentice, else it will get into her gait and slow the turn of work!
But not me. I step out of my SUV, looking to quietly observe the whole drama, scratching my eyebrows in measured curiosity.
I buy a fairly-used tyre and sit like other clients to await my turn for service, if only to catch this out-of-the-box situation.
“A big tyre rolls at her command of hand. She stops it beside the press. And I think the man of the shop will take over to excavate the wheel from the tyre.
My eyes almost bulge to see her sit the large ring on the tyre flange and jump upon the big handle of the press to free the wheel. I want to remonstrate by reflex. But something stops me. It is her deftness, like one just tearing apart a paper.
She does not care that men are watching.
The reflexive but pretentious effeminacy that shows up in some ladies whenever they are in the presence of men, knows no place in her life.
