Nonso23: I can't help but remember Audu (pry1) who wanted to get a bush rat he forgot in their farm; late in the night when he and his father were halfway home already. Mehn that part where he saw the old man with a load who called him for help was our CLASSIC HORROR STORY then in school...AH! I didn't quite understand the significance of that part, till I got a bit older. Then it reeeally freaked me out. |

kaywhynoni: Mr and Mrs BAKO, ALADE and BIOLA.......pry 5 and 6.........ALI and the angel's house, pry 4........Mr GIWA is a shop keeper in pry 3. I can never forget some passage inside Mr and Mrs Bako, Alade and Biola. "Ijenico, the hungry one", "Karanda and Kirindin" and most of all, the last passage "Home again" which read thus: Home again, the drive from Benin to Akure the capital of Ondo state, through the forest was more quicker than they had expected. Once they reached the outskirt of Akure, Alade got very excited and from there to Ilewa, they kept pointing out familiar places to each other, that factory wasn't finished when we left and now look, look, as they drove into the school compound, they've painted the school, am so glad to be home. East, west home is best said Mr. Bako and everyone agreed with him. 1 Like |
