mawee: AWWW, u guys!!!! dont make me cry. i rememba practically all the books mentioned!!!. so nostalgic!!!

'Edet lives in Calabar,he is 8 years old. every morning he goes to school but i the afternoon he stays at home, his father buys him books from the bookstore, at 4 o'clock his father comes home.his father is a trader, ' cant rememba beyond dis.lol

who remembers Mr Nwosu and his 2 daughters?i rememba mr nwosu holding a big white cock.and his wife cooking rice in the background.

seems like eons ago!!!

I think it goes like this: "Edet is 8 years old, he lives in Calabar with his parents, Mr and Mrs Bassey."

I really miss those novels. There is a chapter in that book that talks about his cousin's, Nene's, wedding.

Who remembers this series that featured Agbo Malaika as the central character? Then, his brother, Mike came home from London after five years. I miss those days a lot.

Agbo was sick while taking one of his exams. He contemplated telling the teacher that he was sick, but decided against it, because he felt the teacher would assume he was simply faking and the reason was that he did not know the answers to the questions. When he got home, his mom asked him about the exams and he told him about his illness. She said that he should have told her and she would have told him to stay back. When the results came out, he scored very low and when the teacher inquired, he chalked it up to his previous illness.

Who are the authors of those books? I liked reading them.

Are Rose and Gloria, the story of two friends who got lost while visiting their friend at GRA in PH on a rainy day? While roaming around from directions given to them, by two passersby, their friend called out their names to their relief. I think that's the one.

Do you all know Ali is no longer a boy but now a senator of the federal republic of Nigeria

Simbi is now a vixen, (see her below)

Do also know that Edet no longer lives in Calabar, but has moved to Canada?

Even Agbo is happily married too and has left the town of Lagoon for London.

Even little Eze no longer goes to School; he's now a medical doctor in one of the biggest hospital in the country.

Mr Salami is now a politician and no more a farmer.

Do you all remember Ralia the Sugar girl? She now owns one of the biggest Sugar factory in Kano.

Even Ade our naughty little brother is now a petrochemical engineer; working in one of the biggest oil company in the country.

Ooh i almost forgot, Mr Ojo is now a honourable of the federal republic of Nigeria and he lives in Apo Quarters.....
