LONG THROAT DON MAKE ME JOIN POLICE COME ENTER TROUBLE OOOO!

NA STILL ME UNA USUAL GUY MAN JACK OF ALL TRADES,: MASTER OF NONE!

I just wrote my senior secondary school certificate examination when a friend told me that the police force was looking for a vibrant and fearless applicant to be recruited into the force solely to help them arrest a certain hardened criminal who had been giving them tough time.

They had placed a bounty on his head for any police who can arrest him dead or alive! The price was a brand new car and a house in the capital of the country including travelling to any country of your choice. O boy! When l learnt about the offer, l became infested with joy.

Without wasting time, l applied. I was sent to training for six months. I passed out and l was deployed to the area where the most wanted criminal was believed to be hiding. That afternoon, l was armed with A-K-47 rifle and a handcuffs and l went to search for the guy. My sole aim was the offer not the criminal.

After about four days of an ambushed, l caught him. The guy really looks dreadful. He can kill anyone in a minute! 

When he saw me with the uniform and the rifle, he asked me what was l a policeman doing in his territory. I told him that his time was up. He asked me what on earth prompted me to dare to come for his arrest. I told him the offer attached. 

He then told me that he would allow me to arrest him and take him to the police station if only I will play along with him and not by force. I told him that l was ready to cooperate with him provided he was willing to follow me.

He asked me to give him the police uniform so that he can put it on and also for him to hold my rifle and handcuffs me. I agreed provided he follows me. We then went to the police station with him putting on my uniform and holding my rifle and putting handcuffs on my hands.

As we got to the police station, he salutes the DPO and said that he had arrested and brought the most wanted criminal, pointing to me. The DPO asked him to lock me up in the cell and he should come to collect the offer. In no time, he was given a brand new car and as he was about to be driven to the Federal capital for his mansion, l shouted from the cell to the DPO that l was actually the policeman who went for the arrest and that he was the criminal. But the DPO asked me to tell that to the birds. He said that the blood of all the policemen and the civilians that l have killed, he will makes sure l face the firing squad!

NA THERE I SHOUT SAY I GO DIE OOOO!

ILLITERACY DON PUT ME TO OVER CURE!

NA ME UNA BRO, JACK OF ALL TRADES; MASTER OF NONE!

My people, in those days in our community, there were no educated people. It was the era of letter writing. When you received a letter, then you take it to either a primary school for a teacher to read it and explain the content to you or you take it to a chemist shop for it to be red to you.

One day, l received a letter. Since l can't read, l took it to our village primary school for a teacher to read it to me.

After the teacher had gone through it, he brought out seven long canes. He asked me to lie on a bench. He then flogged me on my bottoms twenty four strokes in the full views of all the villagers

It was so agonizing and embarrassing!

I couldn't say anything or challenged him because teachers were regarded and treated with the greatest respect.

I then took it to a chemist shop. The man looked at it for a few minutes and he brought two bottles of syrup and seven different brand of tablets. He asked me to drink the two syrup bottles immediately and in an hour later, l should take all the tablets at once. I did and immediately, l collapsed. I remained unconscious for eleven good days. 

Thanks to traditional concoctions which resurrected me back to life. The traditional ruler of our community summoned both the teacher and the chemist shop owner. They brought the letter to the headmaster who red it out openly. It was from my uncle who was a doctor. It reads: My son, l learnt from your father that within twenty four hours, you eat different juicy fruits including sugarcane. it is not good, stop it.You are to take drugs to flush out the excessive sugar in your system. Yours sincerely uncle Patrick.

The teacher said that the reason why he flogged me was that once a letter is brought by any student means his or her parents want such a child to be flogged; especially when he saw the words such as twenty four and sugarcane.

The chemist shop owner said that he gave me the drugs because he saw words like different and drugs in the letter so he thought l need different drugs.

THIS CULTURE DON DISGRACED ME OOO!

NA ME UNA USUAL GUY MAN, JACK OF ALL TRADES; MASTER OF NONE!

My people, in my community, the culture stipulated that as a son, any male of your age mate must not insult your mother and go scot free. When your mother is insulted by any male, then you her son would avenge the insult by beating that man to a stupor.

Right from my childhood, l was never a violent person. l am always afraid of trouble because l don't know how to fight and so l always pray that no young man should insults my mother. But it did happen! One day, my mother returned from market in a bad mood! She narrated how she had a misunderstanding with another trader over some amount of money and the woman's son insulted her with all sorts of abusive words.

When l heard it, my body began to tremble because the most fearful thing of my life is about to happen to me! Nevertheless, l must prove to the community that l am a legal biological son of my mother and not an outcast!

With my body shivering, l went to confront the guy.

Immediately, l saw the guy, l almost urinate on my body. His eyes and face were black! He looks dreadful!

Immediately he saw me coming, he knew that l was coming to confront him. O boy, the first slap he gave me was so loud and hard. Many people ran out of their houses to see what was happening. The slap immediately followed by several heavy blows which sent me crashing to the ground. He then sat on me. It took the efforts of not less than six men to pull him off me!

This means that a special day will be arranged by the community for us to sluggish it out. On this special day, if l couldn't defeat him, then l will live in shame for the rest of my life. I can no longer talk in where my mates are!

Based on this, l decided to seek the help of a herbalist. After we had discussed, he assured me that early morning on the day of the fight, l should come to meet him..

Very early in the morning on the day of the fight, l was in the herbalist's shrine. He bathed me with a certain concoction. Immediately l became huge and muscular! 

From my size, no human being on earth could ever come closer to me let alone to challenge me to a fight. But he warned me that l must avoid every sound especially that of a car horn!  Since it was very early in the morning, l believed l can get to the venue which was our village primary school field before drivers will be on the road!

I boarded a taxi happily. But just about a pole to where l will stop, we met cows crossing the road. They were so many. A car was coming from the opposite direction. The driver became impatient! And there goes his car horn repeatedly: PON! PON! PON! PEE!PEE! PEEEEE-EEEEEEE!!!

And as the horn bips continuously, l began to diminish with each passing second! I saw myself reducing in size! I became as small as a rabbit! The driver became afraid and he pushed me down.

MY EYES DON PUT ME FOR TROUBLE OOO!

Na me una indefatigable Jack of all trades; master of none! 

I was on my way home from work when l saw a beautiful looking lady sitting down along the road crying. Her clothes were torn thereby exposing her breasts and laps. It looked like she was beaten up by someone. She was so pretty looking and so l decided to fill my eyes after all, l was a bachelor. This will at least calm down my libido.

A man walked to the spot and asked me what happened to her. I told him that l don't know. He told me that it was not a good behaviour for me to be looking at her body. He told me to go away from there immediately. But l told him to tell that to the birds of the air.

Another man came and told me to go away from there but l also told him to tell that to the birds. And l shouted at him, "Is it your eyes that l use to look at her? Busy body, won't you mind your business?".

Five minutes later, two vans loaded with soldiers arrived at the scene. And an army lieutenant came down from one of the vans. He ran down to the woman and lifted her up saying, "Darling, who the hell that did this to you? I was in the office when l received your distress call that some miscreants attacked you and dispossessed you of your phone. Now where the hell are they?" 

And she pointed at me and said, "Look at one of them there standing.The others had fled away. He is their leader".

Immediately they pounced on me like a helpless antelope being strangulated by a pride of lions! 

I shouted to the woman saying, "Madam, please fear God OOOO! Say the truth. Did l do anything to you?"

And she shouted at me saying, "Shut up your stinking mouth. You are their leader!"

As l protested to them that l was innocent, they asked me to tell that to the birds. They said that l will buy a new phone for her, pay her hospital bill and pay back every money stolen from her and thereafter, l will take them to the houses of all my gang members so that they will arrest them or else, immediate firing squad!

A EUROPEAN VERSUS AN AFRICAN.

Once upon a time a European man was involved in a heated argument with an African man about who is more technologically advanced. The following ensued between them.

EUROPEAN MAN: You Africans have done nothing. We invented aircraft.

AFRICAN MAN: We invented witchcraft.

You can fly and we can fly.
