@Flow, madam ifeoma awaits
Re: Man Wey Dey Reason by flow1759: 10:24am On Jun 19, 2013
"Flow where you dey? You dey house?" the caller asked.

"i no dey house, i dey work" my tongue slipped.

"you no tell me say you don dey work na, which work be that?" the caller asked.

"mehn, i dey work part time as Deputy Supervisor for one contruction company oh" I told a lie.

"which company be that?" he was asking too many questions.

"the name of the Company na.................." I was thinking of a befitting name.

"na Chinese company oh" I informed. "ehnnnnn! Wetin be the name of the Chinese company na?" he was curious.

"the name na MI Tupacokpatalico" I figured out a perfect name.

"MI Tupacokpatalico!! Which kin name be that?" he giggled.

"nahim make me first tell you say na Chinese company na" I said.

In such situation, forming a name wasn't difficult for me at all. The "MI" stood for "Madam Ifeoma", and since i told him it was a Chinese name, i thought it would sound Chinese if i combined "Tupaco" and "Kpatalico" to form Tupacokpatalico.

Tupacokpatalico!! A mouthful indeed.

Imagine a stammerer trying to pronounce "Tupacokpatalico", it would take him/her ages to pronounce, he/she might chew his/her tongue in the process.

Talking of "she", i have never seen a "she" stammerer before. If una don see, make una tell me whether she fine or she worwor. Or is stammering a "Male only" thing? because i had seen so many Male stammerers.

Notable amongst the Male stammerers i had seen was Emmanuel. Na una say make i no dey talk tori of wetin happen when i small na, if not, Emmanuel tori for make una laf tayah.


"i no know say Chinese company dey for this Owerri oh" He doubted.

"e dey na, na new Company wey just open" I said.

"okay oh, i just wan tell you say exam timetable don come out, and Phy412 na tomorrow" He informed.

"you mean am!" I was shocked.

"i mean am na, and you know say na only you dey write that one, i no dey write am" He said what i already knew.

"you dey read so?" He asked. "yes i dey read" I answered.

I was reading in Kponkpon Site, with empty Cement sacks as my books and Shovel as my Pen.

"no wahala, that laptop wey you sell for me, i go give you the complete money next week, e get money wey i dey expect" He concluded.

"no wahala, you be my man na" I said.

"okay na, write the exam well oh" Nas advised and hung up.

Of course the exam would be written well, written with the help of Mgbo reminder a.k.a chop and clean mouth.

"Flow why you no fit read your book? Read and you go pass" I know the bookworms amongst you would ask. Well, my answer to you guys would be; "e concern una? Shebi na my toroh".

"toroh" means Business. "shebi na my toroh" interpreted to English is "thats my business".

That was indeed my business. My business to fail Phy412.

God forbid!! If i could pass Phy411, then i would certainly pass Phy412 which was easier. Phy411 was the 411 of Physics.



I saw the call summary that Nas spoke to me for 7minutes. "this boy get money oh, see how many minutes wey him follow me talk" I tot. He had earlier told me he wanted to start Yahoo- yahoo.


I put my phone back into the pocket of my trouser that hung on the wall in the Changing room and went to join others working.

"guys we need to chop this s'hit well well oh" Man stated.

"you and who go chop s'hit?" I said to Man.

"na all of us na" He answered and smiled.

"i no follow una oh, how i go chop s'hit? I be Dog?" I queried.

"Mumu! Chop S'hit na the name wey dem dey call the plastering work wey we go do today" Man informed.

"Chop S'hit! Which kin name be that" I said.

"na the name wey all Kponkpon workers for Nigeria dey call plastering work, abi Igbakwambo no be so?" Man turned to Igbakwambo.

"naso na, na the name na, the s'hit dey dey two type; strong s'hit and soft s'hit" Igbakwambo answered.

"but today own na strong s'hit we go mix" He added.

"which one be strong s'hit again na?" I needed to know for the records.

"that kin s'hit na the s'hit wey you no go put plenty water when you dey mix am" Ochagbuorie answered.

"na strong s'hit Madam Ifeoma say make we mix oh" Man warned.

"where she dey sef?" I asked. "she say she wan enter bank go withdraw money" Brainbox said.


I ate Four bags of s'hit that day.



Brainbox ate Three bags of s'hit, and Ochagbuorie ate Seven bags. Man and Igbakwambo were dressing the s'hit for a more handsome amount.

Alhassanu: Edit this place oga flow. Phy411 was the 411 of Physics.

It wasn't a mistake, I meant "four one one". Meaning Phy411 is what is happening in Physics.

411 means "what is happening".

Thanks for noticing sha.
