Before going to bed, I had to eat something. I opened the fridge yes, all the food had turned to ice; the light had been on for 8 years without going off. I finished eating
and went to bed. Oh I have to reduce the speed of this fan, the voltage is so high.I woke up very early in the morning to the sound of classical music. I casually strolled into the bathroom.
Oh! The cold is too much this morning, I turned on the hot-water tap. After that, I
turned on the radio and
heard the presenter
speaking of how Nigeria is now one of the most
developed countries in the world and how the Nigerian president yesterday declared his asset. And all he had to boast of was N20 million naira and a duplex in his village.
I finished dressing up and took my time to eat. I had no reason to rush, after all the
road is always free and
there are no potholes.
On the way,I saw a few policemen patrolling and I
greeted them. I stopped to
chat with them for few
minutes after which I drove off laughing.
In my workplace, I saw some people loitering in the waiting room and discovered they were here to be interviewed. I saw d son of the permanent secretary
amongst them. I also saw a young man with tattered shoes and patched-up trouser; he graduated recently from one of the government universities,but everyone could testify
to the fact that he's brilliant.
While going home that day, I saw the man in tattered shoes smiling and I asked him "why are u smiling?"
He said, "sir, I've been
given the job."
"What!" I exclaimed. "What
of the Permanent
secretary's son? Didn't his father call beforehand?"
"No" the man said, "He
didn't and he wasn't even given the Job cause He was not qualified".
That evening, I went out to play in the neighbourhood, I
saw Adamu Obinna
discussing the recent trend in the country, of how Mallam Danjuma is now governor of
Rivers state, Senator
Abifarin Oluwafemi is now the governor of Enugu state, Mr Chijioke Godffrey is now the governor of Kano state.
Then I had a Mosquito bite on my nose, as I slapped my face, I woke up and realised
that I took large dose of
cough syrup...
chai Nigeria of my dream!!!

9JA GO BETTER!!!
