As early as 6:30-7am, we'd begin the sojourn In search of partially blown bangers/knockout- e.g a 3 sound banger that only sounded twice the night before. All the while, mum will be busy in the partially roofed kitchen preparing green concoction which passed as our fried rice- a meal we ate only once in 365days. We'd get back around 10am looking all white like stranded eskimos, Not forgeting to remind u of our severely broken lips- no thanks to the amartan. We'd get back happily as we rocked the neighbourhood with our painstakingly sourced firecrackers- making the air heavy with the smell of the unfriendly white powder. Some actually get hurt in the process but who cares! We take a detour from there to the backyard or in front of the densely populated building in "opeloyeru street"- a suburb on the mainland, splashed ourselves with water from the severely dented aluminium buckets as we enjoyed our bath. Then came the most sluggish part of the day- a time when no one wants to be the first to dress up. Therefore, u see everyone adorned with myriads of 501 crested pants and computer socks, strolling round the compound like a well paid caretaker, awaiting what others are going to wear before finally dressing up. With the mind-games still ongoing, breakfast will be served while we step the chunk down with a bottle of orobo (nickname for any 50cl drink esp. Pepsi) which had to be shared using age as the only criterion between myself and my siblings. Shortly after breakfast, we'd start distributing food to every of the 22 households in the rickety-looking building while they do same in return. Eventually we'd put on our clothes; complementing perfectly with different colours of shades- if ur parents could afford the 'alinco glass' type, glory be to God cos u've got class! Around 1-2pm, we set to greeting f&f: I still doubt if any fulani nomad can beat me in trekking till this day. We go, we eat and we come back! Yeah! With pockets filled with the lowest of currencies but in their abundance. To hell wit u and ur awolowo and azikiwe crested currency. We cherished only portraits resembling tafawa balewa and alvan ikoku. The luckiest mums were the ones who had more kids. We empty our purses for our mums in disguise of them keeping them for us. Lol. Then came the most hated part of christmas- "dusk". We wouldn't want to agree that all was about coming to an end just like that! Even the celebrant won't help us beg his father, had we gone to him for help. Night will crawl in more rapidly than we expected. But around bed time, we'd suddenly let out a large grin- on realizing that a bigger feast will resurface cum the nxt 7days. We'd sprawl on the mat without pulling our clothes while the most high keeps tab us. Christmas used to be fun when I still believed in it. I guess it still is though. The only regret however is the fact that such memorable childhood will never resurface again, no matter how hard I try. happy children's day |
