Memorable Stories From English Secondary School Textbooks!!!! by Jibsonified(m): 7:06am On Oct 21, 2013 |
Well I had to graduate the nostalgic feeling from Primary to Secondary... In my own time from JSS1 to JSS3 Intensive English rocked... I can remember the story of Sango's wives Osun and Oya.. I guess it's Oya that cooked her ears So as to copy Osun's delicious food of mushroom... Sango got angry and he transformed to lightining while His wives transformed to river and they keep fighting even till today!!... But from SS1- SS3 English Project came with one kain swag ... I remembered d story of d 419 Hare who took advantage of the ignorance of the other animals... Let's keep d Nostalgia going by posting ur most memorable stories!!!!! |

Yeah the quarrel between the two cowives and the transformation of the husband into to lightning. Osun was the third and favorite wife because her meals were delicious. Oya was the second wife who was jealous of Osun while the first wife (cant recall her name) was at peace with the Osun. Osun and Oya transformed into two rivers and whenever there was turbulence, people interpreted it as the continuous fight of the two cowives. It almost sounded believable. 1 Like |
