Wow!Are you kidding?! I miss Nigeria because my wife and 2 lovely daughters are there.It's being more than 2 months since I was last at home,and so many things have happened already. my first daughter grew up to be 4years old,and my baby is 5months old plus.Looking forward to October when I will be home again!  .I certainly miss all the high CHO diets(pounded yam,garri etc),exotic soups and freedom of movement!

I finally went to Nija last year after being here for 5years the first thing my sisters did was sing "me i like my people, i like the land and country,everything i dey for nigeria,make we join hands,make nigeria better" The taxi man was laughing at us. I miss cowbell,agege bread,the parties, my family,hints magazine,nepa,COOL FM,The weather. Man....There really is no place like home

The good old days, when NEPA misbehaves and the moon on full circle. We all chart and laugh and play all funny pranks on each other.....and later settle to down to listen to 'Grand Pa' tell his stories of the forever wise tortoise with some hot roasted corn in our hands....hmmm
