Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 53
We entered the compound to meet Daniel and
David playing football, “Man wey dey reason!!
Man
wey dey reason!! Man wey dey reason!!” the
twins
cheered at the top of their voices. “eeeh
Children
Children!! Make una use dis one buy biscuit
chop”
Man said offering them a 100naira note. Daniel
grabbed the money and ran and David ran after
him.
We got to the room to meet an unusual scene.
Tega was having a meeting with his Bucanneer
Brothers in our room.
“Tega, wetin be dis one na? Na our room be the
only place una fit use as una Alora meeting?
What
of if Pkc come back now, how him go feel?” I
said
to Tega after i called him outside. “make una

some important things, abeg make una no vex
abeg
abeg” Tega pleaded. “na Abeg we go chop?
Find
us something jor” Man said. “okay make una
Manage dis one” Tega said offering us
1000naira.
“ehen na now u talk better” Brainbox said
smiling.
He smiles only when money smiles back at him.
“where other guys go?” I asked Tega.
“PKC go church, Snoop and Bigie dey gamble
for
dem Bigie room, Baba jay say him wan go swim
for
Ozommiri river” Tega replied.
“Flow make we go swim na, e don tay wey i
swim
oh. As we never baf kponkpon comot for our
body,
we go carry soap and we go baf there” Man
suggested. “yes, make we go swim, make i
show
una say i be fish for water” Brainbox said.
I nodded in aggreement.
What Man and Brainbox never knew was that
Flow
could flow any other place but not in water.
That their friend Flow could drown even in a
gutter
filled with water. Not to talk of swiming in a
tributary of the dreaded Otammiri river.
At that moment i remembered what was
written in
a sign post at FUTO, warning students not to
swim
in the Otammiri tributary. It read: “Wherever
you
go, Whatever you do. Do not swim in Otammiri
River. Many had passed away”.
Would Flow join those that had passed away?
God
forbid!!
“make una enter water na” Baba jay said as he
was swimming skillfully in a butterfly stroke.
“Flow, pull ur cloth make we enter water na”
Man
who was already stark n*aked said to me.
“so we no go wear anything? We go n*aked?” I
replied, “before nkor, u see any woman here,
everybody wey dey here na Man like u, abi u
dey
fear water?” Man queried. “how i go fear
water, i
be small pekin?” i answered a question with a
question.
