Iya Segi. I was surprised when she employed the word "feck" in an african novel and settings. It was so so out of place 1 Like |

FILEBE:But in the setting it was written, we have been using "fuc.k". Well, it would have been out of place if it was set in early or mid twenties. 1 Like |

OkaNaUbe: You ain't wrong o. I witnessed something yesterday and I'm yet to get over it. I decided to tell my story in the form of a book as a sensitization tool on the menace called Irregular Migration which is in my siggy. I'd gone to an office to drop a copy of this book to find a way to create awareness to this menace. While on my way out of the first office I stepped into, I noticed a sign that read " Department of youths development and empowerment". I was like "bingo", this office would make a good place to get my book and story going. When I stepped into the office, I met three women looking like traders with their heads resting on their desks in an apparent siesta mode in a government office. So, I proceeded to ask if they indeed worked there to which they answered in the affirmative. I introduced myself and told them what I was on about, they were looking at me clueless. I got frustrated and was about exiting the office when an elderly man walked in and they pointed him to me as an assistant director. So I went up to him introduced myself and handed him my book. Oga looked at the book and was like " what is it about?" I explained to him and his response was: Abeg go look for Benin people to give your book because na dem dey send their children go abroad. Whether na cry I go cry o Abi na laugh oo, I no even understand. I just tire waka comot. 4 Likes |

There's a certain lack of je ne sais quoi about the change of location, I'm sure it'll be a great experience nonetheless. |
