There was a day my mum gave me paracetamol tablet for I was feeling cold. Normally, I would've buried it inside my garri before gulping it down. But, it was so unfortunate that my mother made jollof rice that afternoon. So, when she gave me the pill, I pretended I've dropped it inside my mouth after staking a sip. Unknown to me, my mummy saw when I drop the tablets inside the cup I was holding. Lo and behold, as am about to go and drop my plate in the kitchen, my called me back, collected the cup from me and took her time to drain the water from the cup. She poured the remain in a spoon and ask me to swallow it....

After that incident, I learn to swallow pills without cheating....
