The Golden Age of Venga ***

The erstwhile leaders had not imagined that this would happen. Not in their dreams. Their foolhardy challenge to the writer of the anonymous letters to reveal himself and walk the talk had backfired. Venga had not only called their bluff, but had turned the organization around. Everyone now basked in the golden sunshine of spectacular success. Except the ex-leaders, who were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Venga had strong faith. He also believed in himself. He worked hard, and had faith. This was the secret of his success. He did not tolerate 'cliqueism’. His clarion call for Reformation struck a chord with the young and restless. “We are no longer common man's organization. No more mundane activities. Everything must be on a grand scale. Everything we do will be an astounding mega spectacle.” Venga declared.

And it happened. The Values Drama competition was held Nationwide, attended by all (yes, ALL) colleges, universities and polytechnics. Everyone walked the Values path.

Single handedly, Venga showed the Government the way to eradicate social ills afflicting our Nation, through the inclusion of value components in the school syllabus. All 8,000 primary schools in the country implemented this. Venga was celebrated as the saviour of the Nation.
Every Centre of the organization was multiracial and multireligious. Venga ordained that every centre must have at least one person from each race and religion. Otherwise the Centre will be downgraded or even closed down. Another decree was that no centre must be dominated by one denomination. All must be equally represented. Centres were reformed, and now functioned as Community Centers which provided skills training, hobby classes, single mothers meeting center, etc

Strict rules required all members, including youths and children to follow the Code of Conduct. Voluntary vigilantes would monitor this diligently.

Venga also cracked his whip to bring the leaders in line. KPI’s were introduced to monitor their performance, and anyone not up to the mark will be sacked. Members also had recourse to introduce a Vote of no confidence against any leader not performing to expectations.

The Golden Age of Venga had arrived.
