If you have ever attended boarding school, or grew up in Eastern Nigeria you must have heard of the legend of Madam Koi Koi. Who was she? and how did she come about the name? During my primary school in Onitsha in early 90s it was said that the woman who later came to be known as Madam Koi Koi was a fashionable teacher in one of the Federal Government Colleges – the exact one, no one knows – that her trademark fashion statement were lips painted blood red, which was equally matched with a pair of red-coloured high-heel shoes. They made the customary koi koi ka ka as she walked on the concrete floor to and from her classes. But she was just as hostile, as she was fashionable. She beat students up at the slightest fault – usually hot slaps, rapping wooden rulers across their knuckles, or beating with a thin cane that had been soaked in a mixture of ogogoro and alligator pepper. Oh! How she was hated by students, who plotted to have her sacked. This they succeeded in doing when the PTA pressured the school authority to fire her after a certain student she slapped ruptured her eardrum, and whose parents were very influential. As a result, she was relieved of her job though she was very bitter about it. Upon packing her belongings and making her way home – because she lived in the staff quarters, she was involved in an accident and died. But before she died, she vowed with her very last breath to avenge the ill done her. The affected girl was later withdrawn from the school by her parents, but Madam Koi Koi it seems has been on the hunt for her ever since – coming out only at night because her face was badly damaged in the accident, being a fashionable person. And her hatred was not only reserved for the girl, but for every boarding house student – since they were the ones who plotted her sack, and whom to her are representative of the worst sort of students ever! Hence, students were enjoined to stay indoors at night after Lights Out – for that was the hour of her haunt. But most people believe the legend of Madam Koi Koi was spun to keep students in bed after Lights Out , and deter them from wandering at night. But some students who are light sleepers swear that if you listen close enough, you can still hear the koi koi koi click of this bitter, vengeful woman’s red heels on the concrete pavement as she seeks whom to devour. Is this true? Or it’s just another legend? What do you think? Cc Olawalebabs's. Richiez's. Fynestboi's 6 Likes

I heard of that as well but.. we know it only goes to the girls hostel to catwalk for them.. it doesn't come to boys... The one that sends chill down my spine was the bush baby story.. The way they tell the story, u won't even know that a bush baby was an animal and not a spirit. 4 Likes |

There is an English movie that almost depicted your story @op, a horror movie that kept me at edge, I’m yet to remember the name. Believe this story and then believe the Nigerian Indian football game that ended 99-1 3 Likes |

I schooled in FGC Odogbolu, and we heard the same myth. Lass Lass, why is the story so accurate as if it's coming from Koi Koi herself? |

This sounds like someone horror fantasy. We can make this into a novel or movie with so many ideas. |

DanieleLorenzo:   Are you serious?..Are you sure it wasn't a neighbouring cat meowing |
| Re: The Legend Of Madam Koi Koi by DanieleLorenzo: 8:35am On Aug 26, 2022 |
Richy4:100%. It was back in my SSS2. I remember I was awake in the middle of the night preparing for exams when I heard it. The previous day, I was arguing with a friend about the veracity of his claim that such things exist. I had to wake him up to come witness it. I still believe it was a galago, but I've never heard of another experience. |
| Re: The Legend Of Madam Koi Koi by Richy4(m): 8:47am On Aug 26, 2022 |
DanieleLorenzo: It could be a school friend playing a prank on you guys.. maybe he must have heard your argument with your friend...And knows when you will be preparing to study .. it's not difficult to do...In my secondary school days, every thing is possible... After all I learnt how to cook in boarding school, so playing some pranks is way too easy. |

Richy4: Our hostel was a storey building surround by bushes. Who get mind climb stairs go play that kind prank, na im know. |

DanieleLorenzo: Students can do anything just for fun honestly... The prank I played was not that type though.. I was just a regular student that doesn't like trouble but I got bullied by senior students.. There was a day our school tap was running dry.. we got no water.. this senior just came from no where and hand me a cup to get him water... Make una see meOo... Senior there's no water every one knows that... Before I could open my mouth to respond more just to substantiate my claims, he don commot belt to flog me.. Na so I just match straight to the boarder between male and female hostel.. there was a gutter there.. it has water that looks clean but some boys due urinate there some time.. I fetch am, carry giveAm.. he drank it.. As I grew old now, I felt bad but that time, as a JS2 student, I was happy.. I told my friends, they started doing it to some wicked seniors.. In my senior year, I didn't ask any one to get me water.. of course you know the reason 3 Likes |
