HelenBee:



I've not been a ghost Centino,I just don't read from NL cos I don't frequent the forum like before. I follow all the stories from the site.

But,
I still find it difficult to comment via discus.

Nice to hear from you again HelenBee.

Good to know you're still here. I'll of course rather you commented on the site.

Register with your social media accounts or Gmail.

See you around

Las las...
My ghost egg have hatch
I don deactivate ghost mode..
may we day go permanent site..oga centino���

Lol. Welcome.

phoenixchap:

Centino baba! Been a while, thought you concluded the story and it really pained me. Decided to keep to myself on this so I had to steer clear to save myself the heart breaks is the almighty Katakata street still a darling? Just surprised to find myself in the mention bro. I was hoping you would start something new but I was keeping my fingers crossed on this though.

Decided in the end to continue with this in a new season. You do have some catching up to do. Nice to hear from you again.

Chai. I missed the 225 party too. But make I follow stand here

I want to thank all who have been here with me on this journey these 3 years. I always knew that by the grace of the Almighty that we would be here this long. I have famously said that this is a story that will not end, even though these days I will say that it is a story that will not end any time soon

I want us to see 2 million views on this thread! 1 million would have happened a lot earlier if we hadn't moved to the permanent sight. And we would probably have also reached page 300 by now. But it's all good. katakatastreet.com or not, this is still a Nairaland story. I still love it here. The permanent sight mainly allows me to comfortably write f.uck as what it is and not Bleep. And for that, I am very grateful

It was nice seeing folks register on page 225. May I specially mention maggilove. It's unbelievable that it was her first comment. I always saw her viewing on the bottom of the page all the time all these years and I was sure she had said something on the thread. Nice to have you here ma'am.

Seeing tsharp, YINKS89, INDUSTRIALFAN on page 225 as well was super heartwarming. These guys have been there as early as pages 1 and 4. Incredible. Thanks guys. You rock!

And then I should thank all the newer fans and the ghost readers who still had the mind to remain ghosts all this time. God bless you o! But know that I am still here because guys like EkopSparoAyara, Ann2012 never stopped rooting. If they were also ghosts, I'm not sure we would have seen page 225. Most times, it only takes those words of encouragement to remove writer's block and have the juice flowing again for yet another episode.

I also particularly loved those "I used to be a ghost reader but I have repented" comments. At some point, I made sure to respond to every single one of them. Thanks guys.

Now I should mention some of my old favourites I don't see that much anymore but who have made this journey worth the while. sheycrown, preetiex, HelenBee, DaV8King, Dhavido, honourable356, Pinkfeet, kikiwendy, KpagoGIN, phoenixchap, MhizSuccess, and others too numerous to mention. I suspect most of you have now become ghosts I appreciate y'all.

Let's keep doing this guys. See you at the permanent site

225 passed me by,
226
Thou shall not pass!! In Gandalf's voice.

Boss Centino, thank you immensely for this. You've prevented suicide more than once, but you don't know it.

Papa Efe, rest in higher planes.

Glad to be of service.

Be safe bro. Life, no matter how it seems, is good

I promised a midweek update. Here it is.

https://katakatastreet.com/2020/05/13/the-hawks-last-flight/

Enjoy.

collins1895:
Have been a silent reader of katakata for long

Thanks centino,U are great, waiting on next week Sunday for anoda master piece

Godbless

Thanks Collins. But there will be an update before Sunday's. That's how it should be now

Happy Sunday folks.

So here it is for today. I had the midweek update in mind so I wrote more words than I normally do so that I could cut and remain for midweek, but in the end, I served it all. Enjoy. And check again midweek.

Omoshalewa04:
Yea, i caught up with the story after reading for 72 hours or so from page one and all i have to say is Wow. Weldone for the great job. More grace.

BTW
Is that how Ndi's tricycle will go, did he just forget it?
What happened to wasiu and akunna's property? They were not in the building when they were all given quit notice.

Its a fiction yet it looks so real with daily happenings in the world.

More strength bro.
More strength.

Nice to have you Omoshalewa04 and very good observations there. YINKS89 did justice to that question already. The story goes on and on and so all holes will be plugged in time. However, I always appreciate input like this. Welcome onboard.

EkopSparoAyara:
Centino, please bring back mid-week update..

Will do and even more. Thinking about the whole project differently now. Expect an announcement soon. But we will see midweek update next week.

Raustin:
Thanks for the interesting story. You are a good narrator. The story is so real and relatable.

Hey Raustin. Nice to have you here.

tsharp:
nurse jo use her bottom to reset chisco brain otherwise the witch eyonyam would have used her bottom to capture chisco into witchcraft. nice one boss.

check that sentence by irikefe 'oga loops'. i suspect autocorrect has done it again

thanks boss

Thanks man. You're right. That should read "oga olopa". Correction done.

Centino:
Happy Sunday folks.

Hope y'all keeping safe.

So here it is...

https://katakatastreet.com/2020/05/03/agbo-corona/

Enjoy.

Happy Sunday folks.

Hope y'all keeping safe.

Today's update is ready but a technical hitch on the site making it difficult to post. Working hard at it. I Will let you know once it's done.

Thanks.

MhiztaRange:
I usually boast to my friends about this story, the best piece I read online and very educating and also entertaining. Sometimes I normally wonder how can an individual be this talented ?

Thanks man!

Long time!

Rick9:
@Centino

Howare you doing, how is everything with you.

I hope you don't think that i have abandoned your story no way, i am still reading it, but i read it more from your blog.

But the only reason I don't comments is because iam having serious issues registering, plz if there's a way you can fix this issues i would appreciate.

Awesome story you gat, your writing style dey trip me, every time i refresh my browser on your blog.

Even after you went on 3 months break ah it was terrible sha. �

You welcome

Hey Rick9,

I'm doing great thank you and everything is fine. Can't complain too much.

Good to know you're still tagging along. After the break I wasn't sure if anyone would still be interested but I just do what I have to do.

About commenting on the blog, why not login to DISQUS using any of your social media accounts? Pretty easy that way. Or you state your issues clearly and my man nnamdiosu will help out with his expertise in that area.

Thanks for checking man and stay safe.

useed:
Centino, you know av been wondering how did you know all these things, this deep information, cos they seem to be fictional yet one can relate with them. Av you experienced them b4 or you have some spiritual insight or you read them from books ..am really curious please.. I will be waiting to hear from you please.

I usually avoid these questions o. I'll rather let my characters express themselves and you make of it what you want. But I will make an exception here as I sense that it will be of help to you.

How do I know these things?

Experience? Yes.

Spiritual insight? Yes. And we all have it.

Reading? It's second nature to me.

Curiosity? This is the chief ingredient. My favourite line on this thread when asked this question is...you guessed it..."seek and ye shall find." They were the words that set me on my path. You must be ready to ask tough questions and have the stomach for uncomfortable answers and you must read those books your mother told you not to read.

It is difficult to change your position on something you've been told is true all your life especially when it is about God, or the supernatural, broadly speaking. Fear no dey gree us . But you see, for me, I said "Lord, if you gave me the acumen to think, if you allowed the curiosity to rage within me, then I'm bloody well going to ask questions and challenge popular thinking. On everything.

It's not easy. You will be called names and some people might see you and take off . But then you will be fulfilled. I am. Na only money remain

EvaJael:


There's no proper laugh emoji on nairaland. I should have dropped like three lines of pure laughing emojis under this post. Thank you Centino. How are you doing?

I'm doing well thanks EvaJael. Yawing here and there to the waves of life's vicissitudes.

EkopSparoAyara said a lot of truths up there.

But I have seen enough in my three active years here to understand why these are.

As a writer, I'll say to all writers, whatever you do, don't stop writing.

And to the readers, I'll also say whatever you decide to read, just don't stop reading.

Las las we'll all be alright

I trust you are doing well too. Nice to hear from you again.

Hello folks.

I hope everyone is keeping safe.

Let's enjoy today's offering.

“What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet.”

― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

Sometimes I even start to describe a character and then the first name that pops in my head is their name.

If they don't like it they can come and beat me.

ayamalexander77:
Centino i have to recommend that you are doing a great job with this story, its really worth the wait but i was thinking that since we are all on lockdown that u will keep us busy by updating twice a week as u did in part one...
Or is it too much to ask for?

Perhaps

To be consistent, once a week works best because of other things competing for one's time.

No one has yet realized that I do need some palliative package also at this time as I'm not fortunate to be earning anything. So I do need time to go to the mountain in my bedroom to pray that I also get the purported Federal government alert some are receiving as I hear.

The good people of God know what to do if that is to change.

Hallelujah!

Olawale118:
it's not even about Isaiah... the lamb was slain from the foundation of the world. So, it was in the original script. All the same, it's a great story you have there and I have been a reader from day 1. Kudos

Nice one Olawale118.

Glad this brought you out

Keep reading man. Mr. Cosmas will have something to say about that one of these days

paqman:
[b][/b][b][/b]Centino .mr Cosmas missed the line, i bent to dissagree on this [b]Centino .mr Cosmas missed the line, i bent to dissagree on this [/b]Centino .mr Cosmas missed the line, i bent to dissagree on this. Thinking is not a spiritual activity. On the issue of hell i think we been on this issue for a long time now ,and this would the last time i would lay emphasis on this issue . Let see what the bible says . Mark9 v 43 50 .if your eye cause you to sin, pluck lt out,it is better for you to enter the kingdom of god with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown in HELL. WHERE THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE. AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED. FOR EVERYONE WILL BE SALTED WITH FIRE. I dont no where cosmas got is own point of view about hell from

All you said is true paqman. Hell exists. But it was not in the original plan. Humanity made it possible millennia before Christ.

If I tell you that it was not in the original plan for Jesus to come I'm sure many will throw the book of Isaiah in my face. But if man did not fall so tragically that intervention would not have been necessary.

What is, is. But we must also know the why.

francium001:
Wow! Mr. Cosmas said they will not be harmed but didn't remember/know that spirits can possess people and thus can indirectly harm them

thanks for the update man

Indeed. Mr. Cosmas has questions to answer.

viciati:
Da ayeneka.. how i have missed this thread. More ink to your pen baba. Afon unor.

Sosongo ayeneka. Song idem ette.

paqman:
Mr cosmas is someone that earn my respect and regard,but am bend on still disagree with him and centino that their is no hell . Just to think of it do you think the likes of agboyinbo and mama akuna will be in paradise??

Hey paqman,

Your question is answered today.
