OK here we go
Re: Hustlers Tale (campus Life) by Gabbyraze(m): 12:10pm On Apr 21, 2017
I prepared adequately for the exam,of course it was kinda difficult because I had finished secondary school many years before. any which way,I was sure I could skin that cat without stress.
on the day of the exam,I had to meet my contact, the security personnel who is the uncle of my neighbor. met him at the gate,mehn the crowd was mammoth,bodies everywhere, I just smiled and looked for the man. omo na Toyota Camry he take pick me from gate o,I turn celebrity overnight.
he dropped me at new engineering building, which is the venue of the exam. the man instructed me to call him, in case of any eventuality.
I walked into the hall,saw a three men seated in front of the class with sealed papers and other documents,they were obviously the invigilators for the exam. I walked in,met a few people discussing, numbers were already written on the tables so I had to locate my seat. after a while,I went out to get airtime because I deemed it necessary to have some,because one has to be prepared for any situation.
immediately I got back into the class,someone tapped me and said,"the invigilators wants to see you outside ",I shrugged, walked out with him to the chair the invigilators occupied, with a blank mind.
what happened next shook me to the marrow

****to be continued******

please forgive me for been quiet,my phone has been bad till now.just borrowed a friends phone and typed from my head,make Una forgive me.

I muttered "thank you sir", to which he said, "can i see your school fees receipt and id card", I just shrugged, brought them out with my calculator and presented them to him, at this juncture, you might wonder, how come he's a guy and impersonating a lady, we used same surname but instead of Linda, we used lucky, smart right? Anyways, he left after watching me slowly input the correct registration number without glancing at the credentials (memorizing things). Settled down, did my visual survey, there were more girls than guys and it was pretty quiet, with everybody trying to look busy while the anticult guy prowled from one end to another, barking fearful words to defaulters of simple exam ethics and threatening to collect their paper if they persist, i quietly went through my question paper, ticked the ones i could do and started in earnest.






Re: Hustlers Tale (campus Life) by Gabbyraze(m): 11:48am On Apr 24, 2017
you are here for postume, the man in the middle asked, u answered in the affirmative. he then asked to see my printout, I gave him and I watched as he and three other men perused it. "you are a student of this school", that was the statement that struck me to the marrows,wait a minute, that wasn't a question, it was a statement. omo yawa don gas o,but I haven't come this far to quit,I simply answered yes,with a blank stare. he then asked," why are you here",seems the man in the middle is the boss, I told him,am a student of geography and I want to change department,since engineering has always been what I had in mind to study. he then asked for my school ID,hell no,I ain't giving that,I ain't even gonna
carry that for any illegal activity. told him the id is at home,he just smiled and proceeded to ask my questions concerning the details on my printout. trust your boy, I scaled through all of them with ease,questions ranging from name to jamb score, to jamb centre, to break down of jamb result, to start of origin and local government, boy I was on fire but........

he had an ace up his sleeve, in his hand was the broadsheet from jamb which does not have any form of photo id, but had every other detail, comparing the details with my printout and replies, all was legit except for the fact that the dude who came to call me was security personnel and am sure he would have told the invigilators he has seen my face in a lot of places which points to a simple fact, am in that hall as a MACHINERY but aside from his words, they didn't have any proof and I was banking on
that. he finally asked me a question I didn't have an answer to, "what is the name of your village", mehn I was dumbfounded because that information is not in the printout but it seems its in the broadsheet.

gotta think fast cos am on the hot seat, told the man, I don't know the name of my village because I was born and raised in Lagos, which is the main reason am schooling in awka, he then smiled and said," you are writing this exam for somebody ", I exclaimed with a big NO, then he witheld my printout and said the only way he will let me write the exam is if I go home and bring my school ID, I then complained about the time it will take me to go home and return back to the venue of the exam, he promised to give me all the time I needed.

chai naso I want take miss this sweet dough, I racked my brain as I walked outside, one mind told me to count my losses and disappear,since I still had time,but another told me to stick to my guns, challenges are part of the risk and running away would damage my reputation as a man that keeps his words. I quickly called my contact and appraised him of the current situation, he promised me he was on his way to the hall to squash the issue. I decided to hang out by the roadside so it will seem am waiting for shuttle, in case anybody was watching, a keke parked infront of me,I quickly waved it away but the driver barked" my friend enter here, make we go office ", looking closely, the driver is the security guy who called me from class, what the hell?? this dude is getting on my nerves, I angrily told him I was going home to bring my ID, since they had seized my printout. he was adamant about taking me to the office and I didn't show any sign of fear neither did I beg, I stood my ground and even flagged down a passing shuttle, all to prove I was leaving. I entered the shuttle and immediately, he drove away, I begged the shuttle driver to stop cos I forgot my money with a recharge card seller.

smart eh, 5 mins later, my contact drove in and I met him in front of the building. he asked me again what the issue is and I briefly explained the conversation I had with the men, he then told me to follow him inside. immediately the invigilators saw him, they greeted with familiarity and even exchanged banters, I breathed easy because the case us settled. he asked them to forgive my ignorance and even feigned admonishment towards me for refusing to take my culture and heritage seriously. it was settled and they promised to let me write, even though they held on to my printout. he told me to be calm, all has been settled and before the exam, they will give me the printout, I sighed as he drove away, my thoughts still on the security dude who could pick me out.

after a while, they instructed all of us to file outside, exam is about to start and once they call your name, you come up, show your printout and proceed to the seat already allocated to you. one part of my mind said, "perfect time to roll out bro, since you were not caught while exam is going on", the other said, " guy chill, you are a professional and fear shouldn't be in your mind"..... its a no brainer the one I will follow. I heard my name, went up, collected my printout from them and sat quietly in my allocated seat.

well suffice to say, I wrote the exam with one eye in the window, watching for the security guy. bros as I finished, quickly submitted, ran as fast as my legs could carry me while thanking God, went to pick up my dough and.........*lights out*

am retired for good o

PROLOGUE

6 months after project defense, Lagos, Nigeria

phone rings, who's calling,

Me: hello

caller: Bros how far

Me: I dey, abeg who dey talk

caller: Na Justice Bros

Me: ehhhhhhh oga mi, how far Na

caller: I dey o, how your side

Me: Bros I full ground

***********flashback***********

Justice is a guy who happens to be a member of unizik Anticult, he was also my classmate. I stayed away from him as much as I could all through my university days because of my dislike for those security guys. our paths do cross because we share mutual friends and he knew I was a runs guy. Meanwhile towards the end of our stay in school, he delved into advanced fee fraud or what boys in the street call "YAHOO YAHOO". Bros made it big, in less than 3 months, he got a sweet Toyota Camry.

I did a job for him, of course he paid top naira, even dropped me in the exam hall and generally was a good client, no hustle no story, the result was good and since that business transaction, he always hailed me whenever our paths cross.

******back to the present******

caller: Bros I need your help

Me: based on?

caller: exam level na, I get like 5 Carol (carry over) to write

Me: ahh, Bros e go hard o, me don dey lag since we defend project o and I no dey plan come awka anytime soon, except for clearance

caller: Bros I believe your government, no worry. I go send tfare to and fro for you, plus your normal fee, if na flight you wan take sef, na small thing

Me: sighs, make I reason am, I go let you know as e dey go

caller: correct, you know say Na only you dey run level well

Me: no wahala

*****later that evening******

phone rings again, caller is Chizzy

Me: boss how far

Chizzy: Bros I dey o, how lag Na

Me: mehn e rugged o

Chizzy: naso, shey Justice call you

Me: yes o, the matter tire me

Chizzy: you no fit do am?

Me: Bros I don comot hand patapata for that level o

Chizzy: ehn I know but the guy dey ready to pay anything o

Me: I know, I still dey reason am sha

Chizzy: abeg reason am well o

Me: correct, we go talk later

THE END

A special thanks to all those who held me down, who inspired me, who were patient with me, God bless you a million fold.
