Lagos to London ( from frying pan to fire)




Surprisingly, many Nigerians travel to England in search of a greener pasture.They might be right, but I have my doubts. My brother make I tell you. The trouble starts as soon as your flight touches down on Heathrow Airport.


Well, that's basically because you are Nigerian. Your  Green Passport has become an ID stating  that you should not be trusted. 


Just be careful, chances are high that you  might buy fake recharge cards even on your first day.They have it too!


First, you'll have to under-study this London you've read about and seen on T.V . You have to learn  how to move around  .This is entirely a new ball game. Surely this will take you quite some to get used to. Its not like your usual Okada- ride that takes you from Ojota to C.M.S. You go learn this one, you'll even have to learn how to count your money and master your balances.Anyway,  that's if you see the money  as often as you planned before your trip to the UK. Then the weather is another factor, I don't even know what to tell you about this, but I'm hoping you figure it out yourself. Most of the guys you are hoping on  have been put  away( behind bars). 


Even sef you go see oyibo wey dey him country still dey find work. Na there you go fear! All this rubbish we have put ourselves into is all because our so-called leaders failed us . they  failed to lay a foundation that we all can rely on, first as Nigerians. They have forced us to look elsewhere for a decent livelihood. Now oyibo has  seen that we are desperate to survive so they insult us in very little way they can . that's because our leaders failed us. Some Nigerian brothers and sisters even prefer to take the insult. 


It's high time we put our acts together  and decide what to do with ourselves. The minute we all arise and look this wicked people in the eye and tell them the power they so much desire is in our own hands, then they will shit in their own pants. How on earth can a group of infamous  people in the name of  cabal destroy a great country like Nigeria HOW? 




Did they ever believe that Nigerians would turn out in their hundreds in protest at the Gani Freedom Square Ojota? Imagine what we would have been looking like if we had this kind of spirit  like ten (10) years ago! But we sure will get there. 


Nigeria rise and walk!

From Lagos to New York Pt 1






New York!
A city charged with over a million and one lights
Inspiration itself lives here. It’s everywhere, you’ll feel it, you’ll breathe it, it’s just everywhere! From countless streets comes endless chances. It's all in here NEW YORK!

New York. Way back to the O’l school, and up to the Nu, we still hold it down. Let’s go hangout at the SOB. (Sounds of Brazil) who knows, Chiwetel Ejiofor might be there! Trust me a time-out at 40/40 will please Jay Z …of course an autograph won’t be bad at all.


Here’s an advice, staying fresh, nice and out of trouble starts with staying off the Bronx.

9ja Police











What do you think would be the
Out-come of a situation like this.


If you had a good sum of money in the trunk of your car and you are driving through a lonely road at a dead time of the night. Just  few yards ahead, you would see the glimmer of torch lights ahead. Of course it’s either the police or the other guys. Let’s just say we are lucky this time, it’s the police.


The first is that they’ll ask you to pull-over (Pack!)

Next, you’ll hear is inner light!

Then, he( the police man) bends over by the driver’s side glass, so that you can see his blood-shut eyes and also get a feel of his marijuana infested breath. He’ll ask for your driving license, engine number, fire extinguisher, the head lights, although they saw your headlights from afar.


Finally he will ask to see the trunk

Right there he'll see this huge amount of money , running into six zeros and two commas.(millions)Meanwhile, you are just there all alone with the police, fully armed with guns staring at  you dengeriously with his blood shut eyes,smelling of a local dry gin .No onlookers, nobody drives by, not even a sound. It’s just you, them and Two Hundred Million Naira in your trunk.

Now, what do you think will be the outcome of a situation like this?
