Uncle of life I’m yet to receive the money you promised! Lil nephew I’ve been busy. Moreover, I put money in one business and I’m expecting return. But do one thing for me, borrow from friend I’ll reimburse you when you arrive. Alright uncle. I’ve been given VISA, and I’ve resigned in my place of work. Be expecting me on the third of August. Wow! So fast. Is it morning flight or…. Uncle it’s night flight. Call me when you leave Nigeria so that I can wait for you at the embassy. Alright uncle.

Not because I want us to get marry, but I feel restless within me. Kikelomo, look into my eye, everything would be alright. Don’t be restless, it’s just a feeling that I’d stay away from you for some time. But I promised to come back for you. He moved closer holding her hands, promise me you will wait for me, tears started rollin

I’m sure things are getting better; this present administration has been doing good for this nation.  Good things that we’ve never seen for years are happening now, said the second man. The third man nodded his head in agreement with him. Josh said anyway I believe things are changing but not for the better, things keep on getting worse. The newspaper vendor asked the man that was holding the complete sport dailies to drop it since he had been reading it for five minutes without paying a dime. A lot of cacophonies at the vendor shop due to argument ranges from sport to Nigeria matter. Since it was Saturday Josh stayed long before leaving to his house. His Saturday was for rest watch premiership if it’s football season and bible study review in the evening. Phone beeps… Who could that be Josh snapped? He was in the sitting room watching arsenal game. He lived alone, only that his

Your guess is as good as mine But trust me it's definitely not what you think I maybe a lover boy,  This time I'm not down because of love fever Our town is getting better hope we still! However nothing look better that we see Citizens shout we are the saints  the kings replied we ain't the cause of all Then we keep on keeping rotating the blame Wazobia  has always been like this  Even in the first republic Staff of authority was broken!
