macjive01: I really don't know how to qualify this write up, Amateurish ? Silly? Funny ? Disgrace ?

Smh, IMO I think this is a classic Nigerian dumb storyline, that people will nevertheless love to listen and pay to view.

Just like our home videos, u have spent copious amount of time describing an irritating irrelevant scenario- why tell ur readers the nature of ur poo ?
The texture of your poo ?
The texture of your friends poo?
How many times you hv pooed?
The resulting effect of your mama calabar food on ur alimentary canal.
The resulting effect of same on friend1 , friend 2, Friend 3,

Goddamit! Are u not uncomfortable reciting these over and over? again and again and again! ?



My own verdict is; you are far from a good writer , you just happened to have lived a very interesting, funny, eventful life.


There is absolutely nothing artistic in ur write up , nothing coherent. The only thing ur story has is the intriguing life you hv lived.


Try reading ishiloves piece, I bet u will hv a rethink of this junk you are spurting .
U don't hv to match her literature prowess, and command of the English language, emulating just her writing style will help.


And ur repetition of the phrase, " or so I think" is irritating to say the least.

Chimaritoponcho: Mtchw imagine ishilove d most boring writer on NL talkin wen d best entertainer(oga FLOW) is talkin
Flow, no matter what happens pls jus know that u are 10 times better than ishi love in writing cos i see her IYAWO NYLON BAG as a cure to INSOMNIA
The best cure to insomnia to be precise.

When i finish with flow's story at night, i move on to ppa by mazi, then check on the fluctuating foxy, after that na on to sleeping tinz tanx to iyawo nylon bag.

Then you will come to this our thread that has enough originality and credibility and start forming prof critique.

And to those saying flow can use criticisms to be better, i advice you start from barrack boy, read through ibo boy wey like yoruba, check out the criticisms, read flow's replies to those criticisms, and then you would see as that has improved is writing skills.

If you want to crtic a work, don't do it like flow is defending his phd thesis before you. Just criticencourage(sic) him. This is a public forum and flow and some other interesting writers are trying to make our visit to nairaland worthwile.

NB: Ishi, what i wrote about your work, you can take that as a criticism.

Re: Man Wey Dey Reason by flow1759: 1:26pm On May 07, 2013
I looked from Baba jay to Pkc, and back to Baba jay, I continued the process trying to figure out the right time to steal one of the mighty pieces of meat with all dexterity.

The time was ripe, so I quickly grabbed one of the pieces of meat, opened the neck of the Sweater i wore, and threw it in. I did all these within a split second.

Just when i thought nobody saw me stole the meat, two persons saw me. Not Pkc and Baba jay, but Snoop and Brainbox.

I winked at both of them signaling them not to say a word. Brainbox winked back at me signaling; "my share dey oh".

I thanked my stars that the meat was not piping hot, it was partially hot. Had it being piping hot, i would had stomached the pain, because the enjoyment of later munching such mighty meat would definately be stronger than the pain.

Evil grows with time, they say. As we continued eating, i thought of stealing another piece of meat. But what would i say if i was asked how three pieces of meat suddenly turned to one. Because i knew i would be the prime suspect. I would simply say, "make una stop rough play oh, una just dey cheat me since with rush-rush, una don chop una meat, una wan share my own with me".


Suddenly, i grabbed the second piece of meat with the speed of light, and threw it into my meat reservoir. Just one person saw me steal the meat this time around. That one person was the ever observant Brainbox. He winked at me and i smiled in return.


Suddenly Baba jay said, "where two of the meat dey na" giving me a gaze of suspicion. "make una stop rough play oh, una just dey cheat me since with rush-rush, una don chop una meat, una wan share my own with me" I boldly said.

They both stared at each other amazed and surprised at how two pieces of meat suddenly developed wings and flew without them noticing.


"I no go gree for una lai lai, Pkc even you that is a pastor, you want to cheat? God is watching you oh" I accused Pkc. "but i am sure i dished three pieces of meat, how come just one is left?" Pkc asked the air. "Angel Anu don come carry two of meat" I almost answered.

Anu is not the Yoruba name that is shortened from Anuolowa. It is Ibo, and it means Meat.

"make una no play rough play with me oh, dis meat wey dey for plate na my own, una don chop una own, i go cause Kata Kata here oh" I threatened and i heard Brainbox giggled.

Kata Kata is the baptizmal name for Wahala. And Wahala could be interpreted to mean Nsogbu in Ibo Language.

"why are you putting on a sweater?" Pkc asked. "Pkc that one no concern you, na meat wahala we dey talk here, no be sweater" I replied.

I noticed that Baba jay was contantly staring at my pregnant stomach. Pregnant with non-identical twins. Two pieces of meat named Anu1 and Anu2.


"okay we go swear with Bible, anybody wey chop the meat go get Malaria and Typhoid" Baba jay suggested.

I knew that if we swear with the Bible, I would not only catch Malaria and Typhoid, i would also catch Epilepsy, so i said, "Pkc do u support swearing with the Bible? You are a pastor oh. God is against our swearing with the Holy book oh". "Never!! we are never going to swear with the Bible" Pkc said. "Flow eat this meat, I and Baba jay will share the meat i left in the pot for MOG" Pkc concluded.

I smiled again.

As i munched the meat they left in the plate for me, i felt my twins kicking. It seemed i was about delivering.

Brainbox was staring at me with his face reading: "Flow where my share na?".

I stood up carefully in other for me not to have a miscarriage of my pregnancy. And i handed over what was left of the meat i was munching to Brainbox. That was his share.

"Flow comot dis sweater na, see as you dey sweat" Tega said. If he knew what was in the Sweater, he wouldn't had said that. "I like am like that, leave am for me, E concern you" I replied him. Brainbox and Snoop laughed out loud, because they knew what was in between the sweater and my stomach.


I hurriedly walked to the hospital to give birth to the twins in my stomach.

I read ishilove's reply and discovered she is actually as proud as some readers discovered. I believe in respect. The fact that some frustrated fellow insulted flow using you as a yardstick does not mean you should you should also join in feeling yourself. You may be going professional with your work but that does not mean everybody is. Some very creative people are trying, out of their busy schedule to put a smile on our faces and you join in trying to kill the spirit of a fellow writer saying you are criticising his work. I smh for you. For your information you are not that good. I don't know who has been feeding you all that crap of being a role model to nairaland writers but I find your stories a little bit serious and dull. Please we are all growing so stop being so proud of your accomplishments. Remember God hates the proud.
I think we should teach ishilove a lesson in humility by not visiting and commenting on her thread for A week. For what is a writer without the readers. To your tent o nigerians.
