Fables From The Past - Has Anybody Heard These Stories? by shadrach77: 4:49pm On Dec 08, 2010
back in the days in the 80s, there were these stories that always tend to spread around like wildfire and one wouldn't know if they were real or fictitious. There was one about a lady who killed her boyfriend and while she was driving, she stopped to pick a passenger only to discover that the passenger had pins as his teeth, then out of fear, she told the man to drop. Apparently the man was the ghost of her late boyfriend - then as she stopped again few minutes later to pick another passenger, she started relating what occured to her previously and the man suddenly opened his teeth saying "like this?!" and the lady froze to death in fear.

There was another story about Ajayi the tailor - a tailor in Akure who used his girlfriend for money making ritual and made love to the lady in a burial ground - thereafter, the lady started getting thinner by the day until she gave up the ghost.

did anybody hear these stories? have you got more stories like this to share?

I read about the Ajayi story, but she came out to deny it, and some journalist wondered if the girl was suffering from HIV. remember that's when the AIDS story was beginning to make news in the country. Na dem alone know the truth.

I grew up in Akure and my dad was a journalist with OSRC at that time,so I remember the story.

The girl friend was dark-complexioned, gaunt and was about 5.10 feet.
Ajayi the Taylor light skinned and looked comfortable but not plumpy.

Horrible story then.

I heard about Ajayi the tailor's case because I saw on NTA then. I was quite young then but I remember that case got the attention of the Deji of Akure and the lady involved was called Bose.
