Memorable Stories From Your English Primary Books!!! by Rapmoney(m): 4:57pm On Oct 19, 2013 |
Sometimes we tend to drift away to way back...primary school days when you would be called out by the class teacher to read a passage from the English text. Some stories would still be fresh in your memory. I believe every generation has its time. For those that were of the classes of the 80's to early 90's when English primary books such as Mc Milian and Oxford were still commonly used, I hail una well well! I can't easily forget stories like Agbo, the son of Mr Malaika who live in the town of Lagoon, close to Ibadan (we shouldn't forget that his father gave him a wrist watch which he was very proud of) or Obi and Nneka who joined Boys Scout and Girls Guide respectively and were in primary six. pls post yours jooor.... 19 Likes 1 Share |

The story you mentioned about Audu is pry 2 Mc Milian ...that should be Ali and Simbi. I still remember calling some few girls in my class 'Simbi' because of the similar hairstyle.
