Funny thin wen we dey see and hear!
You don ever pass one quiet
street, only you, you come jam one big man wen nor wear shirt hold sharp
cutlass dey waka towards you. O boyee. U go first confuse, whether make u run
go back or make u begin dey greet d guy from distance so dat e mind go cool
down b4 u near am. Well, maybe na just farmer wen dey go farm and d cutlass na
wetin e go use for farm. But how u wan take dey sure say he means no harm. For
my hometown, na so I jam one farmer like dat one day. D farmer nor wear shirt,
e hold cutlass for hand wen e go use for farm. I nor sure say I don greet
person pass d way I greet dat man dat day. Na from distance d greeting start, ‘Brother
digwo! Digwo broda! Digwo broda!’ repetition 4 emphasis in case e nor hear d
first time.
E come get one guy wen dey
say em blind, e nor dey see, e dey use long stick dey waka. Na so d guy enter
one quiet road. Na only him dey. E come dey waka freely e nor dey use d stick.
After few minutes, na em sight one man dey come from distance. D blind guy
quickly arrange em stick, dey form blind guy. As e come dey near d other man, e
come see say d guy nor wear shirt and e hold one sharp new cutlass. O boy, na
so d blind man stop. E dey reason: ‘dis man wen nor wear shirt and e hold
cutlass, na farmer abi na ritualist? Wen e see say d cutlass guy don dey near
am, e come remember say, sometimes, na disable people dem take do ritual pass.
O boy, na so d blind man, leave e stick dey tear race dey go. D cutlass man dey
tell am say ‘eh, u forget ur stick ooo!’ o boy,
blind man nor send. 4 em mind, safety first!
O boyee.. wetin people nor
go do to survive 4 dis naija!
