I think we should be more tolerant of other people's food. Those days when my cousins from the USA came arround, they always complained that our food is this and that. One even said that garri is for animals i had to correct them. Food is food (apart from junk) my 2 kobo.

In the Village-Shopping in the open market, the fresh scent of air dried laundry, my brilliant tailor, help with house chores, walking on the road after eating greeting neighbors, always a house full of people, big open compound where the children can play from sun up to sun down without worrying about them. Every weekend event to attend, life is never dull in the village, they really know how to make you feel like a celebrity and so important.

1. Driving to wherever, without licenses at the cost rate of N20 per police checkpoint.
2. Lack of speed limits on the streets.
3. Non functional surveillance cams (as in Lag n Abj)
4. The lack of law n order really works to my advantage and I miss all that.
