Lemme go first.

Yeah! It was midnight. I had a loud shout outside my window, I peeped outside to see what was happening. Gosh! It was my neighbour an Islamic cleric (Alfa). I quickly put on my slippers because I dare not sleep naked cuz of happenings like this cheesy I dashed out to see what has happened again.

It was Alfa and his wife as well as a co - tenant. Everybody was outside, trust "face me I face you" now. Alfa told us that his wife is fond of spending about 10minutes outside at midnight anytime she wanted to visit the toilet (general toilet for all the tenants). Though he never suspected any foul play until another co - tenant hinted him. So, this fateful day, he pretended to be deeply asleep. The wife tip toed as usual to the toilet cheesy he waited for about 4minutes before going out to meet the wife.
Alas! When he got to the toilet, he called on his wife to open the door that he was pressed but the wife couldn't. He then locked the door outside and shouted "thief, thief, thief..." to attract other neighbours to come out and see what has happened (as witness now). When we all converged, he opened the door. Lo and behold, it was Alfa's wife and baba wakila sweating like christmas chicken cheesy grin grin

Ok, paying electricity bills can be so heart breaking and tedious. To share the point (breaking the unit equally for each tenant) is like a secondary school student thinking of how to solve 'A' level mathematics.
The drama always get a special turn whenever PHCN officials called to disconnect our light from the pole.

A certain working class guy who normally leave home 4:30am to hustle returned home at night say 9pm to find out that there is PHCN light in the area but his room was in darkness. The frustration that he is not owing coupled with the tiredness made him vent his anger on every thing at sight to the extent that he almost slapped the landlord's daughter when she came to call him for a meeting.
Some people in the house owe a lot of money but they're not willing to pay till the kingdom come. "Den no dey pay nepa finish", "govt sef they owe", "I never collect salary", "market dry today", "give me time, I know say I dey owe, I go pay" etc are the likely things you'd hear.
Finally, a meeting would be fixed to resolve the problem. Oh my Gawd! Come see grammar shocked na so that my working class guy (I use to call him Patrick Obahiagbon) go dey blow outdated grammar wey no dey inside oxford advance learner diko cheesy We'll drag the issue for hours spreading till the early hours of the new day without headway (I tire oh, no be to pay nepa bill abi na senate we dey) Na so buried issue go dey surface "d last time we contributed money to offload the soakaway some people didn't pay" " baba so so so has never paid for watch man monthly due" "me, I no be fool, I know as he dey go for lagos"... cheesy cheesy cheesy

Keep it rolling





There was this story a friend told me today that so much resembles that of Alfa's wife and baba wakila. Hear it out:
The wife left the husband inside the room at midnight probably to use the bathroom but after about 10minutes, the wife was not back. The husband decided to check out if something was wrong, so he headed to the bathroom. He noticed that someone was there because he could hear some sound. He called on the wife, the wife said she's coming and the man was like "are u trying to give birth in the bathroom". The wife's voice was shaking so the husband suspected foul play and knocked the door further. All he could hear from the bathroom was sound of somebody falling down and panic. The husband stood still.
People were beginning to gather there and still she could not open the door. The man was so annoyed that he just had to kick the door opened and to the admiration surprise of all; shocked there were two people inside the bathroom (the man's wife and a co-tenant). The co-tenant's two hands were placed on the man's wife backside (bakassi) trying to lift her up so that he could transfer her to the next bathroom (u know FMIFY dey get like 3 to bathroom in a roll). The more he tried, the more the woman fell down hence the sound cheesy grin

LoL...never had a reason to live in one. The electricity bill story is freaking hilarious though. That must suck!

I would freak out too if I don't have light just because some dude can't pay his bills. Tell us more! Did you have an affair with any of your neighbors? We want dirt, juicy gist.

We've stayed in a room and palour self-contain-but-share-varandah-with-neighbour-face-me-i-face-you style house. You'll be amazed at little things that causes "communal clashes". Nepa bills,generator noise, kids wahala, gossips. Etc

1. Bathroom tussle. Like Duncan Mighty said, you need to see the morning trouble when you want to baf
2. Noisy children, usually inhabited by poor folks sharing one one room each with at least each couple having six children, you no fit sleep
3. gossip and fighting. A lot of drama as us have a lot of jealous jobless housewives grouped together.
4. Morality. Bad children influence others from there
5. General toilet. different families with different health levels share same toilet or latrine
