PHONE THEFT; OKADA RIDERS THE NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK



Funny how it may sound but when it comes to phone theft a new set of players have emerged. Motorcycles have become a tool used to carry out such evil on unsuspecting passengers. Here's the case of a friend of a friend of a friend...
On that fateful evening she took a bike from her house to school, after some moments, the bike began to slow down, and finally stopped in a secluded place for reasons unknown to the passenger.
OKADA MAN: Sister no vex my machine get small fault. But no worry I go do am now now.
PASSENGER: Please be quick its getting late.
OKADA MAN: I no dey see well abeg you hold your phone? come show me light.
She points her BLACK BERRY to him so he would see what he claims to be doing.
OKADA MAN: I no dey see well bring the phone make I hold am my self.
She hands him the phone to hasten the process.
The okada man stands up wields the handle of the motorcycle saying...
OKADA MAN: Make I check whether the machine go work now.
He mounts the bike, charges it, moves forward, slows down, takes one more glance at his victim and SPEEEDS OFF.
She did not believe she just saw okada man zooming off, just like a scene in MTV's PUNK'D she was actually expecting hidden cameras to pop out and hear people say you've just been PUNK'D.
But it was not April fools day. sorry!!!
But I say WELCOME TO LAGOS.

chike opara; the dreamer awakes

welcome to the legend of the dreamer. A blog full of write ups around the life of a young man with crazy imaginations and dreams. Here are a few facts about him. His names are Chike opara. last time I checked he was male; you never can be too sure of anything this days. He is a blogger, teenager, a medical student (and I must say in one of the countries foremost universities.you know), what more he remains a DREAMER!!!.
Chike is quite taciturn but talkative,reserved but jovial, too understanding which is not too good, cos when you are too understanding you tend to lose. Did I forget to say he is very smart? yeah he is like many of his colleagues.
He also is a patriotic Nigerian, very patriotic indeed, believes in his country Nigeria the giant of Africa.Funny enough he likes to believe heis the Nigerian dream (no wonder he called this blog the legend of the dreamer) I've tried to talk him out of it but the guy is obstinate don't tell him I said so. I've given upon that and decided to sit back and see what he makes of himself.
I believe in the guy shaa though he has his funny ways he re mains dear to me.
His philosophy of life " to be no one but yourself in a world which is doing its best night and day to make you every one else is to fight the hardest battle ever and never stop fighting" E.E.CUMMINGS
Bottomline be yourself always.
