blueto: only you. You don't like the quiet passengers, You also don't like the talk activesLOOL. Na only me o. Just be mildly normal now ![]() |
I happened to be traveling from Oyo back to my place some weeks ago and was at the bus stop, waiting for the bus to get fully loaded so that I might be on my way. During my time there, waiting for ten (10) other passengers to take their seats, I had lots of encounters and experiences to recount. I could group these encounters by the persons that brought about them and into the following categories.. 1. The Hawkers We are all familiar with these people. They’ll bring all sorts of wares to you and start sweet-mouthing you and sugar- coating them so that you’ll just purchase at least a thing from them. They will cling to you like Hausa perfume (forgive me) and never stop advertising in your ears like mosquitoes (forgive me, again) even after you’ve asked them to stop. They sell ranging from ‘pure water’, plantain chips, perfume, drinks and all. I was even surprised when I saw one trying to make me buy his ‘suya’.. Imagine, suya on a hot afternoon? That man must be silently praying for my death in some parts of his heart. The thing with the hawkers is, there is no monopoly when it comes to a certain ware. There would be like five people selling a particular thing and all would want you to buy from them. Just too tough a decision to make. You’ll scream for “Popcorn” then twenty of popcorn sellers would come. You’ll buy from one and others would start holding you ransom with the talks of “Oga I came here first na”, “Shey you wee not buy from me also ni”, “Oga shey I should bring some?” . Man gats get strong mind. These people can sway you. 2. ‘The Tax Collectors’ I didn’t want to sound so rude. These are those that’ll come to you and start praying prayers that even your grandma has never prayed for you before. They’ll pray so much, you’ll think that they are Bishops or Popes. You all like to call them beggars, I call them what you see above. They’ll linger over you for some minutes and if you’re unresponsive, my dear, they’ll move on. No Time. You’re bad for business niyen. Some of them, and I mean those that sing that “Babiyanla” song, don’t even know their real talents. Their voice, even without beat, is sweeter than that of Wizkid and Davido combined. Their acapella is the best mehn. Sometimes (God forgive me), I wait for them to sing this sweet music to my ears for a time before I bless them with the little the good LORD has blessed me also with (Somebody say Halleluyah). All they need is a good producer. Omo, they’ll go International. Sometimes I pity them. Other times I don’t. Depends on my mood. Depends on whether my bladder is full or not. And it depends on my pocket. I won’t pay ‘tax’ and forget to pay my bus fares. Those drivers would use my face for slapping practice. Let’s move on. 3. The Gentle Passengers. I’m scared of these ones the most. They’ll just be looking forward like they’re seeing into the future. They’ll never laugh at jokes nor turn sideways to even look at the person beside them. I even sometimes try to stylishly look at them up and down to establish that they’re not carrying a bomb or anything (I’m too young to die jare). The ones that scare me most here are those that’ll now be pressing their phones all through. Even when the car starts to somersault, they’ll still be with the phone. They’ll do things like zombies. They won’t sleep throughout the journey, they’ll be looking like the second born of Mama Fish. I’m tired of them already. 4. The Talkative Passengers. These types are the worst kind of people on earth. You won’t ask them question, and they’ll start talking. They’ll make you wish human beings came with a “Mute Function”. Before the 3-hour ride is over, you can basically tell where they live, the year they got married, number of kids, home address, ATM PIN (I lied), and even phone number. They just can’t stop talking. Maybe they weren’t created with the special ‘machine’ that enables shutting up when necessary. Maybe. But there’s an upside – They’ll always make you laugh. 5. The Drivers. These ones are the craziest. You’ll see some, gentle at face, but when they speak, you’ll think Godzilla speaks through them. You won’t even be able to count the teeth of some. Some would have got their teeth equaled to their complexion, blackened by cigar. They’ll stay at the back, drinking and smoking while the bus gets loaded, ordering the conductor back and forth and be feeling like Aburo Dangote, owner of the “Danfo Industry”. I just look at them and I shake my head. Then they mount the vehicle and settle behind the steering like driving is some super power then start to punish the road from their drinkings. The funniest thing about them is that nearly all, if not all, of them have nicknames. Like, ‘Opebe’, ‘Obeke’, ‘Ejo Gbongbonran’, ‘Otalantolo’, ‘Small’, ‘Agbara’, ‘Itu’, “Ekute’. Sometimes I wonder if they got to choose those nicknames themselves or if it was forced on them. If they chose it themselves, then I believe the cigar is blackening something more important than their teeth. 6. The Insulters. Eewo.. I can hear some of you say that. I always pray three prayers before entering a bus. “Lord, don’t let the road use me for lunch”, “Lord, don’t let a big car jam us”, “Lord, don’t let me sit beside an insulter”. See, if you sit beside them, pray again not to get in their trouble. You’ll cry for the rest of the journey, I promise you. Even my driver wey dey form James Bond cried when this mama finished with him, so who are you not to cry? Ehn, tell me. They’ll carefully analyze you. They’ll tell you all what has been the problems in your family. They’ll tell you how your tie looks like a cutlass. They’ll remind you that your forehead would have made a better drawing board back in primary school. In short, they’ll make your eyes start competing with Ikogosi Warm Spring on which one can bring forth the most water. By the time they’re over with you, the whole bus would have been flooded with your tears. Even others would cry for you, aswear. So again, I beg you, identify them and don’t get them angry. I believe I’ve enlightened you enough. Feel free to add others in the comment section. For now, bye. Once again, Bonsoir (I don’t really know what that means) Source - http://xchristopher. |

CHAPTER II ***************************************** Everyone went to their various houses, cleaned up, changed their set of teeth and came back to the meeting area (I lifted some weight myself *wink*. Did I hear the ladies say ‘oooh’). Anyways, when we got back, the headrat summoned us all once again and silence fell upon us. “Welcome, does and gentlerats, welcome. Today will be a great day in all our lives. The human race has tried all their possible best to eradicate us, but all to no avail. Their fore- fathers used ‘panpe’, catapults and even guns to stop us, but still, we didn’t die. The ‘War Against Ekute’ group also came up, making ‘soole’ and ‘gbeku’, yet we didn’t budge. Tonight, we conquer them. Tonight, we give them a taste of their own bitter medicine. Tonight, we eat all they’ve prepared. Never fear, vermins, vicccctory, is ours!!” The whole rat population gave shouts of joy at this sweet- mouthed motivation. We were very happy. The last time we were this happy was when Nigeria nearly won a match like that, before Yakubu missed the goal (Did I mention that we ate his jersey in revenge?) and when Skelewu was released (although we do not know what the song is about). We were all very ecstatic about the feeding session of that night. The stores had also been made ready for extra food. “That’s enough”, the headrat said heartily, after some minutes of joy, “let the master strategist give us our modus operandi” In case I forgot to mention, we also have professionals among the rats. The master strategist for all operations we go for is Mr. Ratata (you know that name that R2Bees always call now). The rat mounted the podium with a big map in hand, spectacle resting on his scrawny little pink yellow nose, his stupid shaky legs holding the floor and his devil eyes set upon us all (don’t mind the description. He cheated me to get the job). He laid the big map in his hand on the wall for all to see, and began explanations. “Right here, here and here are the main entrances to the suite, but only here and here have direct links to the kitchen. Observers (by observers, he means Linda Ikeji’s Blog) have said that the chefs perform routine walks to this entrance, and so have reason to believe its the toilet area. From that point, we proceed to a giant cabbage crate. There, we lay in wait for the chefs to all go out and serve” Everyone hailed Ratata’s plan, everyone except me(I’m still angry at the dude. I could crush his balls). Shawty, a female, sexy and hot rat, raised a question after the noise died down. “Mr. Ratatzy (she seduces everyone with a nickname. That she-devil!), any downside to this plan?”. Ratata melted at this and I noticed some activity in the shameless thing’s groins as he replied,”I’m afraid the answer is yes. I must warn you, that the new Skelewu song and the shameless songs by Tonto Dike will be highly hazardours to our healths. You all remember the ‘Alanta Fever Season’ when our brothers took it too far by setting themselves on fire. We might be looking at another Skelewu Fever. So be careful, when you hear the song, block out your ears. And might I add, the First Lady is capable of spewing bombs from her mouth, grammar-wise. Do not stay near her when she’s about to speak”. At this, even I was envious of the job well done by this strategist. He left the podium amidst claps and the headrat once again mounted to give us the closing prayer, so that we might begin the attack. “O ye gods of the vermins! We, thine be-teethed servants have come before ye once again, give us the stomach to hold the food of the sapiens, give our teeth the extra power to chew the food, give our legs the same power ye gave Guy Dangerous to escape any predators, and bring us back here into our cave from where we can always come to listen and groove to the song thine son, David O, just released. Let the attack begin”. At this, we all hooted and ran out of the cave, headed under the grassess and cover of darkness to the Intercontinental Suites. Just tell me, what do you think would happen next? Gotta go, I think Larry’s coming. Stay connected for Chapter III. Don’t forget to comment. |

[b][/b][b][/b]RATS NIGHT OUT -- CHAPTER 1 {Hello, I know it may shock you to find out that a rat wrote this blogpost. I’ve been genetically engineered, scientifically modified, biologically disposed, personally — erm, you get the idea already. Lemme share an experience with you before the owner of this blog catches me on his dashboard} *sips Larry’s wine* *puts ‘Skelewu’ on repeat****************************************** The room was filled to the brim with our species of different kinds and from different walks of life («– by that, I mean the animal kingdom). The white rats, the ‘ewuju’, ‘ekute’, ‘emo’, brown rats, black rats et al were all present. The room was also stuffy. There was noise everywhere, murmurs, cries of the ratlings and also foul odour everywhere (I know the white rats with big anal cavities can’t be trusted on that). Everyone also shared a common trait in there — hunger. Its been months since anyone of us went out to feed since ‘The Battle of the Chefs’, which took place at Sweet Sensation, when we lost some of our brothers to the merciless humans with white hats in a clean kitchen («- kitchen or arsenal?) The head of the colony had imposed strict rules that no one must leave the pack since then, for fear of losing others, since a new potent killer known as ‘ota pia pia’ has been invented by the ‘Federal Ministry For Rats Annihilation Programme’. Whew! The war humans wage against us though. Tonight, we all received messages on our BlackBerry smartphones (yeah, Blackberry. You never thought we rats had swaggs abi?) and the rest who didn’t have got a ping on their torchlight-nokias. We were all summoned to a meeting where we were going to decide our fate by the head of the clan (the shameless leader ate my dead grandpa. I’ll never forgive him). “O ye does and gentlerats”, the rat leader paused for silence to dwell, “I have summoned ye all here today to express thine minds concerning the issue on ground, so that we may proffer a lasting solution” (you think he speaks good English? You better go look for your KJV bible. He stole it!!!) Everyone gave him their rapt attention now. Mouths had started salivating and stomachs rumbling. Their days of hunger-spells and eating of family members (oops! I wasn’t supposed to tell you guys that) were about to come to an end. The much desired effect had dawned on the congregation and the beard of the head-mouse twitched at that. Something mischievous was about to come out of those lips, I know. “So I have decided” he began. This generated murmurs from the congregation. This wasn’t the first time the headrat would do this. He would ask for opinions on things he was already decided on. “That tonight”, he continued, without minding the murmurs, “we attack the Intercontinental Suites. There is a presidential party going on there, and guess what that means? Yeah, you guessed right, lots of food for us” At this, even those of us that were unhappy that he didn’t inlclude us in his plans were happy. We all jumped and yelled for joy. We were going to have the feeding session (naïve humans call it infestation) of our lives. I looked in the direction of the council of elders, their look didn’t show me they wanted us to go, but the head had spoken. Each rat returned to his own home, me to my own castle (I live in an engineer’s cupboard *shines teeth*) and prepared for the escapade, later in the night. Thanks for reading. Don’t forget to comment and share. Stay tuned for Chapter II |
