Just to start my sanity on a good note, I decided to leave for the uk from a hotel 😁. I lodged at Class suites in Ogudu road. It’s 18k per night. I paid for a night and a half day because my flight was 7pm. It comes with a complimentary breakfast 67 Likes 6 Shares

It was time for the airport process. I sha engaged one of those helpers that helped me roll my luggage. I had an easy pass because , as local man wey I be, I playfully engaged the agencies and also dropped the cash on me. Ndlea/customs, agric, check-in, immigration. Then boarding. 67 Likes 2 Shares

As we board, and flight take off, na so I begin expect the food parry again, because I was hungry. Na so the thing begin delay o. My eye come dey wan turn me. And you know a hungry man is an angry man. Hunger and anger go together. Na so I ask air hostess (these people fine kpa). Dia skin eh? Very very clean girls. Anyways, at that point, they became ugly in my eyes because, omo , the hunger was real and my son was hungry too. I couldn’t buy anything in Doha because I no wan give my village people single space to exploit. I fit go find food, make plane go. I no trust my village people at all 413 Likes 24 Shares

Anyways, time for adults to eat. Same thing, another air hostess asked me, and gave me options. “Since I first choose 1, make I try the last option this time” 😭 So I told her, the last one. Since I no even too hear wetin she talk. An so them bring another thing. This one worse. At that point, I had to ask for rice. Na so she tell me say, this is breakfast. Haaaaa. Una no Dey chop rice for morning? 😭 I just eat the fruits and bread, and rest. But deep down, I wish say I fit see all those people wey Dey hawk gala for hold up, make I buy. They later brought some things for my my baby sha. At this point, I just wanted to sleep, wake up, and get to my destination 218 Likes 12 Shares
