Chai, time don fly.

Used to do my early Saturday morning snack shopping to entertain school friends on weekends.

Then buy a can of green peas to add to Saturday afternoon rice. grin cheesy

With a few Naira, I had a cellophane bag full of goodies.

I'd be sipping capri-sonne walking home.

Nigerians love junk foods. That's why they die anyhow and blame it on f*ucking juju due to the fact that huge majority of Nigerians are scientifically illiterate!
