*sigh* You people keep reminding me things I want to forget.
Me that ran through childhood collecting dumb experiences like a coin.😭
So this one be time, I almost died…🤭
As I was the only child, my parents would take me almost anywhere, including places children aren’t meant to be *purrr*☺️
The downside was that it can be incredibly lonely as I’d be the only child around.
Anyway, on this particular day, they carried me to Knight’s meeting. After the general service, men and women demarcated to do confidential meeting leaving the only child in a mile radius, me, alone, in a big empty hall.🥹
As I was left alone unsupervised, I started roaming like a wild animal. I’d do this every meeting day.
Once they left me, I became Dora the explorer.
Now, my school was located directly behind the meeting venue. I found it really exciting being the only one inside the school compound, on a Saturday, no teachers, no gateman to patrol you. Just roaming free.
I’d go places students were prohibited to go because who can stop me?☺️
I’d pilfer chalk, play teacher, handle the cane, ransack everywhere… unchecked access to everything.
The problem was, to get to the school I’d have to circle a large field from the meeting venue. A whole 10 minutes walk.
But there was an alternative, a balsy one.
The Nun’s convent bordered between the meeting venue and my school. Just walk through the gate and you’re inside my school.
The Nuns included but not limited to; The school Headmistress, the teachers, disciplinarians etc.
You’d think this would deter me from using that route right? Because if I’m seen, I’d be in big trouble, right? Wrong! I love to see how dangerous things can get.🥹
I’d tiptoe right through the large compound and get to the school. This worked for a couple of months.
I always looked forward to this because the adrenaline!!!!
On this day, I peeped through their gate as usual to be sure nobody was outside before I’d float through. There was no one but…
Their dog was there. The dog just finished birthing her pups. I watched as the pups dropped, I think she was also mauling them. It was really gory and bloody. She kept mauling them.
A sane child would turn away because you can see that this particular dog is mad but jokes on it, my parents gave birth to a madder child.
I used to be a big pick-me. It didn’t matter if it’s a human picking me or a dog that’s probably rabid that just underwent labor. You see, my friend when you become too good at people pleasing, you must enlarge your coast and try to please other things, like dogs.
I needed to impress the dog and so I looked around and picked the prettiest flower I could find. What is dog that it wouldn’t fall in love with my flowers? I did small prep talk and entered.
I’d tiptoed well into the compound when the dog sensed me. Instantly, I realized my fcukup because you do not need to be an adult to identify pure beastial rage.🥹
The rest happened so fast… Steeze left me there and fled, the dog was coming at me like a fast coming projectile, my shoes existed my feet for ease to run, I gave the flowers to whom flower is due; the wind, I was doing 180m/ph, I was calling on God, I was calling my mother that was minding her business at the meeting, probably broke my hymen there too because my legs were really determined to leave me there. I wasn’t fast enough for them and so they were doing very wide laps.
Luckily a nun was home and she came out just in time to save me. She was confused as to why I was there. With tears, I said I wanted to give the dog flowers, she choked.
The difference between northern yahoo yahoo and southerners is noise.
Southerners make a hella noise. Abuja has the highest number of big men who do yahoo. I’m talking of ex military men, and big alhajis. They have foreign bank accounts, foreign POS and they control large number of Bvns and bank accounts. Some are just money launderers for politicians.
One thing however is that they don’t buy benz and azul, they just stay lowkey. You’d only know they’re rich during their wedding😅😅. But the numbers don’t lie.
Any honest person who has anti-fraud experience will tell you. If the money trail leads to Niger State, forget it. The money would have been sent to 10k bank accounts and used on 2000 POS machines.
The target is to reach 5000 serving milestone on our 3 rd anniversary in November. We can’t do this without your help, please tell someone about us today. 👏

Randomly remembered when I was going through alot, I never told anyone.
One night I couldn't sleep, tears was flowing anyhow, I picked up my phone around 12am, called my elder bro, with tears I poured out my heart. I asked him to give my mum the phone since her phone was off...
