A Shocking Story

A Shocking Story....

As I stood at the junction impatiently waiting for a Keke to board, a funny looking fellow walked up to me and waved some portions. He claimed they were medicines and knowing too well that it'd either be some aphrodisaic or local viagra, I frawned and told him that I don't understand Hausa. 

Instead of leaving, the dude offered the stuff for a token. He even boasted that his herbs work well and it might even make me look for him to buy some more. His persistence was spiteful because I was running late for a meeting, Keke was not forthcoming and the tenacious babalawo was becoming a nag. 

As soon as I saw a bus going to town, I jumped on it and said some profound words in Hausa to the harberlist. He was awestruck that I understood and spoke Hausa language fluently. I laughed and waved at him as the bus moved on. 

Omo I was happy seeing how shocked the Babalawo guy was 🤣🤣 

I SHOCK AM! 

Well, when we got to U/Sarki, the bus conductor asked for his money. I touched my pockets but I didn't feel my ₦1ks, ₦500s, ₦200, ₦100, ₦50 notes. They were all gone with my new earpiece  

Mehn I WAS SHOCKED! 🙆

I shocked Babalawo earlier and he later shocked me too. 

Me 1-1 Babalawo 

Thank God for my Visa ATM card and the extra ₦200 in my breast pocket else the mannerless bus conductor would have disgraced or made mince meat of me. 

When I got home from the meeting this evening, I found the money I thought I'd lost folded on my couch. i was SHOCKED again

e SHOCK you too abi? 🤣🤣
