Really I can't believe I just read this from a Nigerian. 1 how old are you? 2 it's not about tribe 3 that book was a JSS Syllable for many years. This is the reason why Kai Muhammed and other old men will keep being in leadership circles REMMEI: 1 Like |

Psalm18: I couldn't find my own in our library, perhaps someone might have taken it. Believe me, i missed that book. I read it not less than 23 times.. |

Sent4rina:It was a great book indeed. I had finished primary school and was lazying at home while waiting for secondary school. The mood was rainy season, the atmosphere pre boko haram and kidnapping. The setting, a rural village somewhere in Nigeria. And then I got the book. That summer was one of the best of my lives |

Truckpusher:The name of the book is 'the passport of mallam iliya' or 'an African night entertainment'. It was about a man who wanted to marry a girl named zainobe. She was actually betrothed to him, but somehow a rich alhaji snatched her through the use of a love portion (perfume). The rest of the story was about the jilted guy seeking revenge. |
