"E ra ẹfo e se be! (buy vegetable)" a yoruba woman screamed at the top of her voice as the noise of other traders filled the air. Bola looked around and gave a sign of relief as she set her eyes on the vegetable seller, she has walked the entire market looking for a seller of vegetable and was relieved to set eyes on one. "E lo ni eleyi (how much is this one)" she raised one of the vegetables, "100naira ni iyen awon eleyi ni 50naira (those ones are 100naira while this ones are 50naira)" the woman explained. "Shey eleyi o gba 50naira ni? (can you sell this one for 50naira?)" Bola asked, the woman pretended as if she didnt hear Bola as she called on other possible buyers "e ra ẹfo e se be (buy vegetable)" Bola touched the woman to get her attention as she felt the noise in the market might have prevented her from hearing her, "jo ma fi ọwọ okuta kan mi o (please do not touch me with your ill-fated hand)" Bola was stunned, "se ẹ fe tàà fun mi ni? (you dont want to sell it?)" she asked, "ti ko ba n se pe ori re buru, bawoni wa se ma na ẹfo 100naira ni 50naira (if not that you are an unfortunate person, how will you price a vegetable worth 100naira as low as 50naira)" the woman said as she looked at Bola in a way that only remind you of Efunsetan Aniwura deadly look. "Ahn ahn iya, ki la gbe ki leju (madam, whats my offence) ti e ba ni oja ta e gba ile yin lo (if you are not here to sell market then go home)" Bola said as she walked off the woman well arranged vegetable, the woman raised her voice "iya re ni ile ni o n bawi (you are talking to your mother at home)" hearing what the market woman said, Bola turned like a snake whose prey just gave a sharp turn, "laye-laye yin iya, e ma bu iya mi, ko jomi loju fun yin, eni ti o ni iru eni ko le mo iyi eni (don't ever talk about my mother in your life, i am not surprise, he who do not possess a thing does not know the value of such thing)" she said as she walked off, the woman continue to reply her until her voice was overpowered by the noise in the market place. Bola left the market in anger that she forgot to buy the needed vegetable...(to be continued) |

*continuation* Under the popular igi àanu (the tree of mercy), a popular tree inside the main Campus of Osun State Polytechnic, Iree. The Computer Science student sits to cool off the heat of lectures of the day, this is because the tree is located beside the Computer Science Department and it also stand directly opposite the main lecture room of the department. Some of the students do call the tree "the second Com-Science department" cos of the amount of Computer Science Student you find under the tree especially in the afternoon. The most popular name of this spot still remain igi àanu which simply means the tree of mercy. It was a hot afternoon on the campus, and as usual, the Computer Science students dominated the chairs made available by the executives of the department as they await a lecturer who promised to be available for lectures at exactly 3PM. Tade watched as Gbenga, Tunde, Emeka, Ebimobowei and Aminu entertain some of their course-mates with their rap skills, this five boys are fun to be with, whenever a lecturer fail to show up on time, they do turn the lecture hall to a rap battle field. As Aminu dazzle in hausa, Tade phone vibrated, he is fond of keeping his phone in vibration whenever he is on campus, he brought out his phone, looked to the screen and give a smile. "mààmi (my mother)" he said with a broad smile on his face "e kàà san ma (good afternoon ma)", he waited to get a response from the other caller before giving a big smile "e seun ma (thank you ma)" you can tell from his smile that he was happy. Just as he drop the call, Deji who has been watching him said, "Tade, pádi mi, alert don land abi, dis one wey u dey laugh yanfu-yanfu" Tade gave a smile and replied his friend "o boy, my mum just wan send me some cash, my sister dey bank like this sef" just as he finished speaking, his phone vibrated. "e don drop o!" smile covered his round face "o boy na how much na?" an impatient Deji asked as he collect(s) the phone from his friend. "ye! 2-5, owo to n deru ba oshi (2500naira an amount that scare away poverty) o boy na u o" Deji said as he handed the phone back to Tade. The governor of the class announced that Mr Zakariyau is around, all the HND 1 student stood up and rushed towards the lecture hall...(to be continued) 1 Like |

Abayomi asked, "not at all, i actually came for this" she waved the handout as she walked to the door.
