Eko Eko Eko!, Eko Idumota Eko
Enter with your change.
1000, 500 I no get change.

The danfo Conductor kept shouting.I jumped into the front seat quickly, and with the loud Fuji music playing in the background, the conductor voice was completely inaudible.So I picked my diary and began writing about this wonderful city called Lagos.

Eko oni baje ooo, as they always say, which is quite true. Lagos can’t be damaged or spoiled, the people in it are capable of keeping it going. Lagos, the most populous city in Nigeria with a population of about 17.5 million, is the second fastest-growing city in Africa and the seventh in the world. Here everyone is strong, everyone is talented in their own way and an entrepreneur by default.

Saying “no place like Lagos“, is not just true but real. Where else can you find that high spirit of entrepreneurship in the world which makes every Lagosian want to make money? Even the bus conductors have that skilled voice and a touch of madness you can never find in any place. It’s called Hustle!
The mainland and the island dividing the very rich and the poor, yet the spirit and energy is the same, the struggle and bustle is written in the eyes of the people, “make the cash or die under bridge is the spirit”.
Lagos is not just a city, it’s a reality show.You can’t feel the real Lagos till you take a ride in its public transport especially the yellow buses called danfo.These buses are more like moving metallic scraps with tires. The vibration alone when you sit in one can give you a free massage.
Lagos is a crazy city and everyone has that touch of craze, but it’s even crazier than you can imagine if you haven’t lived in it and when I say live in it I am not just talking about sitting in some air conditioned car moving just around nice places in the island. For you to really experience Lagos you must commute around it in the danfo buses.

The beauty commuting in danfos is that there is always a drama each time, is it the entertaining fight between the conductor and his driver whom he calls pilot or the fight for change (20 naira) between the passengers and the conductor, or the sudden break down of the bus in the middle of traffic, where you the passenger have to come down and push the bus.There is always something entertaining!

Lagos is the symbol for the word for Hustle, everyone is out for the cash and the end here doesn’t justify the means. Every Lagosian carries this enormous energy that is easily communicable, you don’t know it till you leave Lagos for somewhere else.
As I was about to conclude this article and close my diary, someone tapped me, it was the Well -suited guy sitting next to me, He was like, “Bros I dey go cms and my money no complete you fit help me complete am?”

WATCH OUT FOR MY NEXT ARTICLE –The Lagos Big Boy
Long Live Lagos! Eko ile, ilu ogbon…

MEANING OF YORUBA TERMS USED:

EKO=the Yoruba word for Lagos
CMS,Idumota=Areas in Lagos
Danfo=Yellow Public Transport Buses
EKO O NI BAJE=Lagos will not spoil (a popular slang in Lagos)
O BAJE TI=It won’t get spoilt forever
Naira=Nigerian Currency

Cuddlemii:
Hello Everyone,

It has come to our attention that the literature section is not fully represented on the FrontPage.
Therefore, I have decided to create this thread, to ensure a long-lasting solution.

This thread would serve as an endorsement thread for topics(.i.e. FrontPage Recommendations).
The reason for using the word, "endorsement" rather than recommendation is to show the level of commitment.
We are not just selecting topics for the sake of it, but putting our signatures on them (.i.e. contract / testimonial)
Writers should set themselves apart from other posters. Much is expected!


RULES & STANDARDS


1) A Topic can be recommended by anyone apart from the writer itself.
The reason being that, writers would focus only/more on their own write-ups.
**We need to help, nurture & evaluate each other**


2) Topics must be worthy of the FrontPage:
The topic must be a reflection of the section.
Think of the topic as the section's brand.
To be candid, not all threads have quality write-ups.
Some need extensive work, some need little adjustments here and there.
**Proper spacing, paragraphing, punctuations, etcetera**


3) Topics must be selected from all Literature Genres:
Genres like Poems, Novels, Drama, Short stories, Fiction, Prose, Humor, Biography, etcetera must all be given a fair chance.
**Stories should not make the FrontPage all time. We should market, encourage and motivate all our writers alike**


4) Each day, I would select the first recommended topic from the pool of topics endorsed and submit it for the FrontPage.
You have until 8am in the morning to endorse a thread.
In the case where the first topic is not worthy, the second or third topic would be chosen.
**Please, review the threads thoroughly before recommending them**


5) The moderator & Super moderator(s) have the right to disregard topics that do not meet the standard
or do not conform with the rules and regulations of the forum.

**Sometimes, topics might not be included on the FrontPage.
Due to circumstances, interruption, disruption, eruption & uncertainties grin.
It's not automatic, it's not rocket science, it's a process!
The recommendation from the literature section might not get in on time. Just be patient!**
please check the poetry between humans an the spirit called shade posted by me...its beautiful piece let It make front page

Noble4d and timpaker, God bless you, guys. Let's await Obinnau.

Poems need to grace the frontpage, too. I don't know why it seems to be like an extinction genre of literature. Even the just concluded literary award, poetry was given no recognition.
