Home town is history o, been there only once. Popc had to leave the town unexpectedly leaving behind his first house he built in his life and a clinic. Those guys can be funny tho, they still come to lag to source for funds buh dey can neva get to know where we live not to talk of seeing us d kids and mom, pops will only have them meet him in his office. Those guys don do us strong thing oo buh guess they are changed now.

Am a village addict, i travel to the village at any given opportunity. I am from Udi in Enugu state, and i can say that there is no fear of witchcraft from where i am from. I actually keep my annual leave till December so i can spend the whole 30 days (eating abacha and bush meat, and washing it down with nkwu ocha) in my beloved Obinagu! cool

I was just there last week.

I screen my visitors and do not allow anyone to just walk into my compound. I will soon be having security cameras installed because I discovered there was a burglary attempt on our family house. Many of these people smile with you but are devils waiting to strike.

Thank God I am always covered by the aunction on the Winners Family.

I love my village, I go there at least twice a year, the trees and serene environment is what I can't get in the city, the simplicity of the people and the gist and smile u get when you seat with them over some palmy is refreshing. Yes there are people with bad intentions but there are also people with bad intentions in the city so if you can navigate the city you can also navigate your village. For me the key is knowing your boundary and leaving your 'I too know' at the village gate.

My villa is the most peaceful and developed village in nigeria. You can call it the land of three towers, Ebem Ohafia.there are many satelite towns around it like abiriba etc. If u come to my village u wud feel like u are in lekki...nobody bewitches d oda due to success and achievements. The success of one brings joy to everyone. We see it as our villa is getting illoustrous sons n daughters. Besides there is nothing u will do or biy that has not been done in my village. Every family has a big boy in it. So keep urs in ur home.

Erm, because they believe that some people in our villa are out to do more harm than good to my siblings and I, like with their black magic and stuff. I've heard stories of weird things happening from my cousins that used to live in the villa, but I don't know if I truly believe it. But to be on the safe side, me and my siblings just stay away from the villa.
