Men Dey Reason - S01 E71

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 71

After a hard day’s kponkpon, the thought of

Paapa’s place comes to mind.

“make we go take igboh na” Man suggested.

“mehn na true oh, e don tay wey i shark igboh oh,

since two days now” I replied.

I, Man, Snoop and Tupac were off to Paapa’s

place.

“Tupac, what of Bigie na, i never see am since

today, where him go?” Man asked, “him travel go

him village dis morning, but him go come back

tomorrow” Tupac responded.

We were puffing, puffing to forget our sorrows,

puffing to forget our pains, puffing to bring joy

into our lives.

“una know say, i fit become the president of

Nigeria?” I suddenly said.

“hahahahahaha!! No dey make me laugh jor, how

u wan take be President? who u be? Who u know?”

Tupac said. “i be Flow, i know Baba God and i go

win if i come out for next election” i was’nt sure

if i said that or the “igboh in me” said that. “how

u think say u go win, u get god father? u get

money? Which political party u dey?” Man was

asking uncountable questions.

“imagine say i call my party FLOW PEOPLE’S PARTY

(FPP), how u see am?” I said, “e go make sense

oh, when u dey campaign, u go share igboh for

everybody say make dem vote for u, even the Logo

of ur party go be picture of igboh” Snoop said.

“And ur Party slogan go be; FLOW PEOPLE’S

PARTY!!! IGBOH FOR ALL” Man said causing an

atmosphere of laughter.

In a country where dreams never comes through,

in a country where the Youths never ascends the

throne of power, in a country where corruption is

the in thing. A brother is Dreaming to serve his

Nation, a brother is promising to flush corruption.

If only he would be given a chance. Like the

saying goes: “if wishes were horses, even FLOW

will ride”.

Why i loved Igboh was that, it not only brings out

the best in you, it makes you dream big. And it

makes you put in your best in whatever you do.

Oh!! How i wish our political office holders were all

Igboh smokers, this Nation would have been a

better place, because they would put in their best

to serve the Nation.

Saturday came like every other day.

“Flow lead us in prayer” Pkc said during morning

devotion.

“Lord thank You for our lives, thank You for the

good things You have done for us, thank You for

our daily bread, yes, we know we are sinners,

have mercy on us and deliver us from evil, in Jesus

name………… Amen” i said a short and sharp

prayer.

“i told u guys that we will be going to the market

to buy some foodstuff, and 2days ago i mentioned

that we will be contributing 1000naira each. Here

is mine” Pkc said stamping a 1000naira note on

the floor.

I also stamped mine, Brainbox brought out his own

1000naira and dropped it, Man did the same, so did

Tega and Snoop. But when it was time for Baba

jay to bring out his own contribution, the story

changed, “ehnnn, una know say i no dey do any

work, and i get so many problem wey i need to

settle for sch, make una help me abeg, i know say

una dey try for me” Baba jay said wearing a

“pity” face. “Baba jay nobody wey no get problem

for sch oh, i no come here come feed person oh”

Brainbox said.

“shebi i don tell u before make u follow me go do

kponkpon, u say u be Old man and u no get

strength to do that kin work, make i tell u, e get

one guy wey dey do kponkpon with us him name na

Igbakwambo, the guy go senior u by far, d guy get

two pekin sef” Man said. “pls forget about Baba

jay, we are his Brothers to help him no matter

the situation” Pkc said.

“now, the two persons that will go to buy the

things in the market are Flow and Brainbox” Pkc

said.

My Oh my!! Flow and Brainbox that blends together

like Bread and butter.

My prayer was that Brainbox shouldn’t try L102 in

Ekonunwa market. Or else?
