The kingdom was ruled by King Simba alongside other officials like General Kiboko, Commissioner Chui, Governor Ndovu and many others.  \nIn that kingdom, there were two great friends, the Tortoise and Weaver bird. They lived  \ntogether in the same house and even they shared food and could sometime go searching for food together. It could occur that if the weaver bird looked for food one day, the tortoise would look for food the day after.  \nHowever, tortoise had friends who would mislead him. His friends were hyena and rabbit.  \nThese are the friends who made the tortoise to become rude. It could occur that sometimes  \nthey would make the tortoise face punishments from king Simba for the problem they themselves had made like stealing.  \nIt was just lately that rabbit and hyena were walking in the forest when they saw gazelle, who was from his shamba and hadjust harvested carrot. They went and beat up gazelle and stole his food and went with it away. Later that day, they went to the king and reported that it was the tortoise who did that.  \nTortoise was then called and punished.  \nOn a certain day, the weaver bird told the tortoise that he would be going for a business meeting with his colleagues and he would be coming back late. Therefore the tortoise should  \nleave some food for him. He agreed and on that day, the tortoise had brought home meat as their food.  \nBecause the food was in excess, the tortoise invited his friends so that they could share.  \nDuring that time, they had a great supper full of laughter. The tortoise then realized that the  \nfood was almost finished and he did not leave some food for weaver bird. He took the remaining food and because his friends were greedy, they wanted to finish the food.","cbCaioD7l9GZ48qV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioD7l9GZ48qV","pdf",20358607,17,"English","en",105,"# Narrative Setup\n## Tortoise and Weaverbird Friendship\n# Betrayal and False Accusations\n## Hyena and Rabbit Frame the Tortoise\n# Consequences of Greed\n## Weaverbird’s Meal Request and the Supper","[{\"question\":\"Who are the main characters in the story?\",\"answer\":\"The main characters are the Tortoise and the Weaver bird, along with King Simba, hyena, and rabbit.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the tortoise end up being punished by King Simba?\",\"answer\":\"Hyena and rabbit steal food from gazelle and then report that the tortoise did it, so the tortoise is called and punished.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the weaver bird ask the tortoise to do, and what goes wrong?\",\"answer\":\"The weaver bird tells the tortoise to leave some food for his late return.
