This entry by former grand prize winner Mweze Ngangura puts an African spin on the children's story, the Emperor's New Clothes. Féli is a 40-something underling in a huge multinational company in Africa. Against expectations, he's is made governor of the mining province of Zerbo, which is involved in a conflict with its powerful neighbours, the Krowas. He's Zerbo while his wife Mopaya is a Krowa, their son is called Little Prince.
The new governor cannot officially introduce his Krowa-wife to his citizens. So he concocts a plan to keep his wife and son out of the public eye by hiding them in secret apartments of his new palace. Feli has a few enemies including the head of palace security who wants to be governor himself. So he enlists the help of a local beauty queen to win Feli's confidence.
Of course being Congolese, the governor should have the most fantastic clothes for his inauguration. His enemies, disguised, get hired as dressmakers to the governor. They make an imaginary ceremonial costume, which they say will remain invisible to stupid folk. Convinced he looks fabulous; Feli makes an appearance before the population of Zerbo - dressed in boxer shorts.
