Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 22
“guy, i don do one bad thing now now oh”
Brainbox said to me as he came to meet me in
the well where i was fetching more water.
“wetin be d bad thing wey u do?” i inquired.
“after i don do L101 for the Tin tomatoes, i
wan come buy the kerosene because i no say i
no go fit do L101 for the kerosene” Brainbox
began.
“ehen, wetin com happen?” i inquired. “naso i
com tell Nkiru say i wan buy half bottle of
Kerosene oh, se com say funnel wey she go
use pour am for my container no dey there,
naso she com enter inside house say she wan
go bring the funnel oh” Brainbox added.
“ehen, continue” i said. “shebi u know say
our kerosene container dey black, and person
no go know weda something dey inside if
person look am?” Brainbox said. “i know na” i
responded. “as she go inside go bring the
funnel, naso i com quick quick pour one bottle
of kerosene inside our container” Brainbox
added. “as i see say she go notice say i don
thief one bottle of kerosene naso i com burst
two pure water com pour am inside that bottle
wey i empty” Brainbox explained.
“as she come, she com still sell my half bottle
for me, everything com be one and half”
Brainbox added. “Brainbox!! U be original
thief oh, i pity the person wey go buy that
bottle wey u full with water oh” i said. “the
person stove go just blow like bomb” Brainbox
said and we both laughed loudly.
It was time to eat. Too bad, i was paired with
the ravenous Baba jay.
“have u finished preparing the paw paw?” Pkc
asked me. “yes, but i want make we eat this
rice finish before we go chop the P-square” i
responded. “bring it like that, lets eat it
together with the rice” Pkc ordered.
Pkc had a bad eating habit. His combination of
food was deadly. When we were at Umunkoto,
there was a day he came to our house with
mangoes and he met us cooking beans. That
day we ate the mangoes together with beans.
He even bragged about eating Kuli Kuli
together with bread. And now rice and paw
paw? Oh my world!!
With a slice of Paw paw each in our hands, we
ate the “not too delicious” rice Snoop cooked,
the Paw paw made it very delicious. Bigie and
Tupac came in and joined us.
I was determined to try to meet up with the
great speed Baba jay was eating. The ratio
was 2:1 spoon, not too bad.
After meal, “Flow make we go Ilya du Neked
wire go drink Pammy use wash dis food down
na” Brainbox suggested as I, Brainbox, Man,
Snoop, Tupac and Bigie sat under the mango
tree outside.
Ilya du Neked wire was the joint where
kegite members like I and Brainbox met to
“vibrate” and drink “Holy water”. Vibrate
was a Kegite terminology that meant
Converse in English and Yan in pidgin English.
Holy water was a kegite terminology that
meant Palm wine in English and Pammy in
pidgin English. I loved the Kegite club so
much, not only because it was a worldwide
club, but because they don’t maim fellow
human beings like the secret cults and
fraternities, that was why i joined the club.
Not only that, i joined the club because of the
slangs they used in conversing(vibrating). I
and Brainbox were regular customers at Ilya
du Neked wire joint when we were at
Umunkoto. The joint was located close to Poly
Nekede.
