Love knows no bound indeed. “Flow! Open this door ooh!” Brother Wale longed for his lover. I thought of muscular Brother on top of muscular Flow making out, then I smiled. Laughed? I did. “why you dey laugh na?” Snow said. “Laugh? make i dey cry?” I jerked for a while and continued laughing. “wetin we go do for this Flow case!” He said, “Since three days now, Brother Wale no gree go house” “Oboy I no know wetin we go do ooh!” I answered, “make we go see Iya na, anything wey she talk we go do” As we left for Iya’s walking the bush path, what the others were thinking wasn’t what I was thinking. I was thinking. I was really thinking. It was two weeks since Man’s paralysis, he wasn’t getting better at all. Was he gonna die? Nobody knew I was behind Man’s bedridden for Two weeks. I almost cried when I saw Naeto crying in the hospital the other day when I and Brainbox was in the hospital. I must confess! “I must confess!!” I told myself. “my guys, before we go reach Iya place, I get one confession to tell una” “Confession!” Brainbox turned, “Now no be time confession” “Oboy leave am make him confess na!” Snow attacked, "You know weda na him thief that my shoe wey i dey find?" “Na… na…. na…….. na…….. me make Man paralyze” I wept, “Na me! I meet Iya make she give me concoction wey I mix for him pammy” “Eheen! You mean am!” Brainbox was shocked, “But why? Why Emma?” “I do am because of all the wickedness wey him don do me!” “Wickedness! Which kin wickedness be that?” Snow returned, “Abi him be Judas Is a cariot?” Worse than Judas Iscariot was Man wey dey reason, yet my conscience rocketed. I was sick of high blood pressure. “Emma you wicked sha! Na you be wicked person!” Brainbox pushed me for a fight. I was on the floor and couldn’t gather enough momentum for a punch, yet he had punched me twice before Snow grabbed him. “You paralyze my man and you dey here!” Brainbox attacked, “If you no find solution wey go make am well, you go see wetin I go do you, I go kill you!” “You go kill me!” I returned as they moved on, “You be God? You are just mortal!” “Man no be God” That was my only consolation at that moment as I sat on the floor with blurred eyes and mangled jaw. Yes, Man will never be God, Man wey dey reason was becoming a god to we his friends, someone needed to stop him, because it wasn’t so in the beginning. In the beginning it wasn’t so. What changed? Our friendship was hitting the rock. It was getting dark, the time was 17:59. I stood up and headed for 1759 with the knowing that I would find my way to Iya later that night; when my friends were done with her. Man wey dey reason must resume reasoning. 2 Likes |

14th February 2017 was a Tuesday. “Oh woman no cry, I love you still!” I sent Omowunmi a rather apologetic message than a love message. I was missing her. I was missing her trouble. Just because she saw Vido holding my hands the other day; “You will see what I will do to you!” She promised. Since then, No calls no message. Life is what you make of it. I was heaping fire and brimstone on my head breaking Omowunmi’s heart even though I knew what the Ibadan babe was capable of. It was raining. I heard a car screeched by the gate. Moments later, I heard a knock on my door. “Is me Omowunmi your love!” 1 hour later. “So your thing can not get up abi?” I was sweating. Whatever happened to Johnny? It was rather morbid. I caused it all. “No, not on such a day, Johnny wake up!” I cried “Rise up!” Omowunmi commanded Johnny. Captain Johnny did not obey the command. What was happening to Johnny? “Emma what did you take?” Omowunmi finally asked. “Take? I didn’t take anything oh!” I denied. Soon Omowunmi dashed into the kitchen n’aked dangling her oranges up and down, and moments later she returned with the kitchen knife - I waited for a slice of her orange, i never got one. “What do you want to do with that?” I was about asking. “If you don’t tell me what you drank that is making your kini not to rise, I will cut it of” She was holding my pen tight, later my b’alls included. I was hurting. The knife was so close. “I didn’t drink anything na?” I yet denied. “Okay continue lying, when I cut your kini you will tell the devil what you drank when you get to hell” The knife kissed the tip of my pen; the chill of the metal send cold shivers down my spine. I was scared. “Okay Okay! I will confess!” “Confess fast!!” “I… I… I… drank Buruntashi…… Man sold it to me” “Burun what?” On the 18th day of February, it was a Saturday. I was on my way to the barber’s shop; my barber’s shop. I wasn’t happy with my profit lately. Olaniyi was really getting on my nerves, on the one hand, he was grand-master with the clippers, and on the other he always brought back as little as 500 Naira most days as the money he realized daily. Flow’s boutique was moribund already, Man and Snow’s gaming centre was dead, I assured myself that my barber’s shop wouldn’t toll that path of failure, so I decided. I decided. “Sit down Timipreye!” I too sat down. Olaniyi had finished cutting a customer’s hair, he sat beside me. “Oga Emma! This one wey you show for this morning?” He was rather unsteady, “Hope no problem?” “Problem dey small!” I started, “You see this guy here? Him name na Timipreye, na him go dey in charge of this saloon from now!” “Oga wetin you mean?” “I mean say, your services are no more needed in this saloon” He stood up, and was putting on his shoes. In no time, it was good riddance to bad rubbish. Olaniyi’alala niyi (Igbo) – A lost child was lost indeed. “Timipreye feel relaxed and get used to this place, I know you will do better than Olaniyi” Soon a customer entered. “I want my hair cut!” He said. “Okay sir! Sit down!” Timipreye was hospitable. I glanced the man’s hair cut; I noticed his hair was kept yet he wanted a cut. “Where is the other guy? Ola!” The man said, “He knows my style!” “I know this style sir, i wil barb you well” Timipreye was sure. It was two minutes before i heard a shout. “What!! Look at what you have done to my hair!” “I am sorry sir!” Grass-cutter had cut Rain forest into Sahara Desert. The man’s hair was gone. “He is sorry sir?” I pleaded. What followed was a heavy punch to Timipreye; and our Timipreye was nowhere to be found; he had vanished. “Timi! Where you dey!” I couldn't find him. “See me here!” I found him sitting comfortably in a bucket of water cooling of. I was yet pleading. I was about to shut the open sterilizer. All of a sudden, a heavy punch landed on the back of my head. To me I was beheaded by that punch; it was when I felt the warmth of the sterilizer that it dawned on me that my head was sterilizing. |

Timipreye had far gone from being an experience barber and a good employee to being a friend. A good friend. “But Timi you make me fear that day ooh!” I winked, “That day wey you barb that man rat chopper” “ha that day I been dey purge nahim make my hand dey shake!” Timi was a funny character too. Entered Man. “Emma I wan barb my hair!” He announced. “Ehen sit down make him barb you na” “But I no get money oh!” He pissed me of. The frown in Timi’s face spat volumes, he dilly dallied for a while before hissing. “Timi no worry I go pay for am” Why wont I when my business had overtime increased in weekly returns, I was so glad. My new year resolution that year was to buy myself a Lamboghini or worst of a Cadillac, money was my crush, but I prayed I wouldn’t get crushed in the process. “Emma e get one business wey I wan introduce to you!” Man had a nice hair cut on. “Which business?” I wasn’t interested ab initio. “You know say I grow up for Sok town?” He continued. “Sok town!” I was thinking, “where be Sok town?” “Sok town na Sokoto na” “Okay!” I remembered, “Yes you grow up for Sokoto, I know” “So I want dey move wrapper and Yam from North dey com here” He said, “Yam and Wrapper na very profitable business for here” “How you know that one?” “See you! One tuber of Yam for here na 500 Naira or 600 Naira, but for North na like Five tubers of Yam be 500 Naira I swear” He swore, “So if we buy like two lorries com sell for this Port Harcourt, we go make like Two million Naira ooh!” “Interesting!” I was sure with such amount I would pay Omowunmi’s bride price twice, I was so sure. “So how much wey we go invest for the business?” I needed to know. “No be we, na you go invest for the business, while me I go dey do the run around” He informed me, “You know say I no get money now, since wey I recover for that sickness, Oga OK don disown me say make I recover well before I go fit continue the Cocoa business!” “So how much I go invest for the business?” “You go invest 500kay for One lorry of yam, 200kay for half lorry of wrapper, but for each lorry of Yam, we go get One million Naira on top, and for each half lorry of wrapper we go get 500kay on top” Man informed me. “Na good business but… but… but..” “No but dey inside, suppliers wey we go supply the products for this Port Harcourt dey plenty, I get their contacts” He assured. “I know but how much percentage of the gain you wey go dey the run around go get sef?” I asked. “I go get like 10 percent, abi how you see am?” I looked into his eyes and greed was far from his iris. No penny for my thought before I said; “I like the business, when we go start?” “We go start……………” Man hadn’t finished saying that when like thunder, “Grubgummm!” Something fell from the roof. It was earthquaking and voluminous, and the sound deafening. My heart skipped. Ceiling boards scattered everywhere. A mighty cat had fallen! Timi had escaped the room banging the door behind him. The place was stuffy and smelled like a skunk. I was looking for my shoes. My racing shoes. The cat was scary and so fierce. It looked over fed, yet it geared swiftly to devour Man. The cat’s eyes were burgundy I could see for the corner of my eyes. As I turned to flee and the glass door hit my head hard; it meant to me that there was more to come. The cat was facing me now and I was suddenly pushed to the wall by no body in particular. I recited THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD and OUR FATHER twice before I missed step and fell. As the cat stamped its upper limp on my head, I peed instantly. Seconds later what I thought was pee was actually moist poo and i bathed in it. The chirping sound the cat made violated my head; it was lighter. It moved swiftly to my back and rained its pee on me. Was it pee or its poisonous venom that was raining on my back? I was already imbecilic and I think I had lost my sense of smell as i perceived Roses for the pee. Where was Man all this while? What was the cat gonna do with me? Innocent me! I died twice and resurrected before I realized the animal was on my lower frame. Soon the animal was on my head again, I think at that moment my brain clock stopped. I was stiff. I rushed to meet up the appointment I had with God when all of a sudden thunder struck on my head, and…….. Light out. 3 Likes |

10th March 2017. A black Friday “Man when you say the Yam go come?” I was on phone, “Why Abu and Adams never call me?” Two O’clock he had assured me Abu and Adams would arrive, and a look at the time shows 12:45pm. I took my bath, went to 1759, drank two bottles and by 1:37 I was seated at a eatery at UPTH junction munching meat pie while waiting for Abu and Adams with the truck load of Yam from Benue. The business thus far had been very lucrative as Man had earlier promised. I had slated my wedding for July; I just couldn’t wait to be wedded to the love of my life Omowunmi. CHARACTER SHIFT At the Police station "Emmanuel Okoli before he died had told me by at about half past One that he was headed to UPTH junction to direct Abu and Adams on how the tubers of Yam is to be distributed to those he supplied, I had told him that I should come along with him, he refused, Then at about Three O’clock I saw his call, I thought it was him calling, but no it wasn’t his voice I heard from the other end, it was the voice of an unidentified passerby by informing me that Emmanuel Okoli’s body was lying dead in a bush path" I was crying. “Mister Ugonna I put it to you that you have a hand in Emmanuel Okoli’s death” The dark Inspector looked me in my eyes, “How come it was you the passerby called informing you of your friend’s death, I mean he has other friends na!” “Sir, I don’t know anything about the death of Emma, I swear, the passerby was able to get my number because I was the last person Emma called before his demise” “Okay, I will want to believe you unlike my colleague who doesn't that you have no hand in the death of Emmanuel Okoli, but only if you will tell me something” The fair inspector signaled his colleague to leave, and he left. “What is it sir!” I asked. “I am not sir, I am your friend now, just call me Bayo” He winked, “I want you to tell me your conversation with Emmanuel Okoli before he died, I mean the phone conversation” “The phone conversation!” I farted. “Yeah! Tell me” “Well sir, sorry Bayo he told me that I should take his house keys from underneath his foot mat, open his door and help him with his ATM card details, that he wanted to make an online purchase urgently and he forgot his card” “And did you do that?” Bayo asked. “I did give him, then about 20 minutes later, I received another call that he died!” I had cried Red sea. “Are you sure he didn’t say anything else when he called you the first time, I mean the time he asked for the card details?” Bayo asked. “No……. I mean Yes, he said when he comes back he will buy me two bottles of 1759, 1759, thats what we call Guinness stout!” “Yeah! 1759, thats what I too call Guinness stout, So Mr. Ugonna come let me buy you a bottle of 1759 while we discussed other things!” The other things he wanted me to spill, I swore to Emma’s dead body not to tell anyone. 1 Like |

“Mister Ugonna you will be under our watch, so as we release you now we advise that you do not leave town or make any form of travel as investigations is still on” Inspector Godspower wasn’t smiling. Just then, a constable entered saying: “Sir! We have been able to arrest Mister Chinonso Yona Nwoye a.k.a Reasonable Man with regards the death of Emmanuel Okoli” Man! Ooh Man!! Man wey dey reason! Reasonable Man!! “Okay! That’s good! Is he the only one you arrested? What about Brain? I mean Brainbox?” Inspector Godspower asked. “We arrested him too! He sustained gunshot injuries on his legs because he tried to flee” Your friends will make or mar you in this life. I wished the dead could hear or speak. I was thinking. I was really thinking deep. What would Man gain killing Emma his business colleague, what? Emma that made him quit being the president of OK republic and OK cocaine industry. Emma that made him saw the joy of living a legitimate and responsible life. Emma that invested his all to the business that had grown beyond lips and bounds for the betterment of the both of them. The same Emma that showed him how to save and He (Man) was able to buy a jalopy for himself. God bless the dead. I wish I could take the pain away. I wish I could see Emmanuel smile again. He that knows you very well will somehow have a hand in your ugly ordeal ask Brutus or Judas Iscariot. But I was sure Man wouldn’t go to that length as to kill Emma. I was very sure, i mean both of them was lately getting along well. It rained on me before I got home; lonely home! All my friends were in the cell including Brother Wale and Timi from Emma’s barbing saloon. Snow was in Etche for his father’s burial all the while I was in cell for two days. “What will I do with this video?” I was weak. I thought of destroying the video and excluding myself from the wall of Jericho that was about to fall down flat. But again I thought otherwise save Emma’s ghost come hunting me. The Power Holding Company of Nigeria let go of the power they were holding and after taking my bath I cooled of lying on the bed. I inserted the memory card in the appropriate slot in the DVD player and played. So many things saw my eyes; things like Chinwe having s’ex with a girl about Fifteen – she was a virgin, I saw the sex t''oy she used really hut the young girl. I saw Chinwe and her husband burying a dead body in a bush path. I saw Chinwe cutting of the private pa.rt of a dead young boy in a dark room while her husband held the torchlight. I cried. Man's unkindness to mankind. Man’s inhumanity to humanity. Who videoed these scenes? I asked myself, Emma never told me who did before he died. That person must be guilty of the cruelty too. But again I noticed the video was not done openly sort of; the persons videoed were seemingly not aware they were videoed. The person videoing used some sort of Secret Camera Device. A phone maybe; a phone with hidden camera capability. Or so I thought. My question was who shot the video. Was it Emma? |
