Lol!
Jamaican BV Ballack washing his grandma's hair.....
....Whats that special thing you would do for grandma?....I was never close to any of my grandma's so i didnt do nothing for or with them.The distance was too far between Lagos and the villa.
As for my paternal grandma,i will never forget the epic disgrace she gave me when my dad promised me heaven on earth and tricked me to visit the village with him not knowing the granny wanted to see me..
Hmmm as we reach for night oh,Morning na so i tied the wrapper that my mum gave me to pose with in the villa but i am partially left handed so i tied the wrapper the wrong way.
As i approached my grandmas house,she came out and saw me,stopped in her tracks and started screaming and crying that Lagos had spoilt her grandchild ooh,she was screaming that nobody would marry any lady who ties wrapper left handed,and all her old friends gathered and i was in the middle,they forcefully loosened the wrapper and wanted to show me how to tie it the right way,as they removed the wrapped,my grandma saw stone wash denim trouser underneath and collapsed screaming that Who will marry woman that wears trouser like man ooooh.
#Bigshock for me.I have NEVER tied wrapper since then and grandma has rested in the Lord.
hehehehhehe #epicDisgrace
hehehehhehe #epicDisgrace
Na so lol
ReplyDeleteAwwwwww
DeleteMy grandmothers are still bubbing!
Am treating them right.
The 1st time I visited my villa was when I was 9years and I lost our grandfather..I was the kinda of girl that couldn't speak yoruba language,so it was difficult getting along with my granny..she always call me so many names that ill just start crying*lmao*they call it oriki..I dislike it with passion..and the beating from all those village girls nko!choi*simple look at you*they will start beating you cos they don't understand english..I haven't been there since then oo
DeleteShe's right anyway and you end up marrying a white man.
DeleteWell,that's none of my business
Looooooool i have a similar story but in this case it's my mother in law.. she thinks im a proper retard for tying wrapper the wrong way...its so hilarious how she's always close to tears wen she sees me do it.. n i only tie wrapper in the house to back my baby o but still she wants to cry every time...lol
DeleteWho's rule is it that wrapper has to be tied a certain way? #doctorswife#
I never met them, I never experienced grand parents luv.so sad.I never used the word grand ma or grand pa. r. i.p to them
ReplyDeleteMy grand mothers are still very much alive mehn. If to say my paternal grandma came to this world when comedy is selling like now ehen, she wld ve become a millionaire by now. The woman is soo funny dat whenever we feel like laughing we just arrange to bring her home. She dosent understand english and even yoruba. But I love her cuz she is hardworking. I pray she wld be alive when I start raising children, she wld be d one to come nd stay nt my mother o
DeleteI never had experience with them, from both sides cos they are no more on earth.(rip) that's good one from him.
ReplyDeleteI thought of my maternal granny today. She loved me and spoilt me rotten with goodies whenever we went to villa for hols or Christmas. Her death was a blow to us cos she loved and was loved by all. R.I.P Mama.
DeleteLol.......Stella kpele.
ReplyDeleteMy grandma always asks me whose child I am whenever I visit. It's funny and at the same time heartbreaking.
Its old age babe, Alzheimer's I would guess, or some form of dementia, quite common.
DeleteAwww.....
DeleteIs she blind?
The most heartbreaking thing ever..
DeleteI met my grandparents(daddy's side) and my grandmom(mom's side) the deterioration in their health was just painful..
My mom's mother would wander off sometimes,talk to self... I knew her days with us were numbered,as young as I was.
Grandpa's was shocking... I knew him when he was agile and a smart "young man" with "luckin" his dog... Rest on grannies.
My maternal grand pa was a darling. I remember being about 7 or 8 And he called me into his room and dashed me one of those stoves that had like a glass thing underneath. MY. Brother and I fought over that stove all the way from ashaka delta state all the ways to ph.
DeleteGod rest his soul.
Aunty Stella ur nan is gangster damn lool
ReplyDeleteLol
DeleteMy maternal and paternal grand ma's are still alive.
I pray the lord continue to grant them good health
Smh for your grandma @Stella.

Abi you live with your grandma on the villa?
DeleteJupiter get Villa?
DeleteHaha. One of my grandma was so mean that she was always reporting us to my mum whenever she comes home from work, even after we beg her not to. Ahh. The woman cork wickedness for bottle. God forgive us, but we would target once my mum goes to work, she will quietly go and lie down pretending to be asleep. Trust kids then, we will climb on the bed, put our legs on the wall and start pushing her till she falls from the bed. The chair will then be her sleeping place till my mama comes back. She never reported this prank to my mum for fear of getting worse. This one is late sef.
ReplyDeleteThe other one, is so nice and was always teaching us how to pray even with sleep in our eyes. Still alive and over a hundred years.
Omg!! That's horrible
DeleteAww the praying one reminds me of my granny. Always praying for us God bless her soul
Same and more will be done to you.
DeleteI just remembered Patience Ozorkwor in "Hatred"
Delete*singing* Obilibili Jelijeli Chioma nwam, ahurum gi na anya,mana agwa gi ajoka"
You people were "Adolfutu Hitila" to your granny.
Lol... My paternal grandmum was very nice and spoilt us silly whenever we went to the village. The only problem used to be communication. She couldn't speak english, and we couldn't speak our language.
ReplyDeleteMy maternal grandmum lived with us for about one year before she died. I used to make her hair (very scanty, weak, and grey) after then, she would peck me and give me money to but 'solo coke'. She could was also very critical and ended up sending ALL my friends away.
Aaawwwwww
DeleteAwwhhhh
ReplyDeletemy grandmas are troublesome
My granny then, will shout the name she calls me, " Eberechi o, Eberechi o, obugh lamdi kpo?(are you not the one I am calling)? Nwa otutu onu ocha(red lips child)... before you know it, when you are close to her she will use the head of her walking stick to drag you by your cloth... Nne rest on o!

ReplyDeleteMy maternal and only living Grandparent is nice but boring abeg.She no sabi give all those correct folkores, unlike my paternal grandma of blessed memory. Kai, I miss that woman's stories. Even though I know some 9th them were made up, enjoyed them regardless. I and my siblings used to look forward to her stories, every evening after dinner.The stories were always accompanied with sweet songs.Oh how I miss you Agu Nwanyi.Continue resting in the bossom of the Almighty.

N dey re both resting in d lord miss dem much
ReplyDeleteI love my maternal grandma to the moon and back. I've done a lot for her and she loves having me around. I pray she stays to see me get married and see my children. My paternal grandma, mtscheeew, wicked woman. Anyway, lemme not speak ill of the dead. I've been told to write a tribute, don't have any good thing to write about her.

ReplyDeleteChai, I di wicked mehn!! Karma has your address dear do prepare for it.
DeleteSame and more will be done to you by your Grandkids. They will put banana peel on floor so you can bump your head, dey will put 'kelebe' in your water, dead cockroaches will be inside your plate as meat. Just hold on, don't be in a rush to grow old. Omo ale
Deletewow! u really need to pray and ask for forgiveness so that u ll grow old and be surrounded by ur fruits. You did that to an old woman. Your grandma at that.
DeleteJust pray you don't experience worse
DeleteGrandma's can be very strict and also fun to be with.
ReplyDeleteI'm fortunate to have known my maternal grandparents,and also two great-grandmothers.
My maternal grandma is the matriach of the family.she's a typical example of those grandmothers on telenovellas(the kind ones though)
Her word is law.I'm very free with my mum,I can disobey my mum,(not like I do)but I dare not disobey my grandma.No one does.
I also loved one of my maternal great-grandma deeply.she died 2 yrs ago.she taught me a lot.I lost two great-mothers 2yrs ago, one died 3months after the other.they were both 102 and 105 respectively.
My grandparents are still alive and well,and they are just like my parents cos I saw them all the time while growing up, spent all school vacations with them.
#fondmemories#
Aaaw, lucky you. I still miss my maternal Grandpa...He was just too good! !
DeleteI had a special bond with my grandparents from my mother's side. Just that as they grew older, they started forgetting things. If u enter room, they ask u whose child u are. Even if u tell them whose child u are, they don't know. Old age come make them be like small children.
ReplyDeleteMy maternal grandma was very strict buh hardworking.
ReplyDeleteAt 78 she still goes to farm.lol
God Rest Amoya Etuizale's Soul.
Amen.
So stella u be lefty? Hehehehehe!

ReplyDeleteMy maternal Grandma was one of the best things that happened to us. We never can forget her advice and niceness. She was beautiful till death. My kids even took her light skin. Keep resting on, Mama Pupa.
ReplyDeletecontinue to rest in peace grand ma .

DeleteMy sisi is the ish. I love her so much, and she always wants me around her because I have her time. It's my duty to buy her toiletries and wedding band. I love my sisi dearly. She is just waiting to bath my kids....
ReplyDeleteI never met my maternal grand mother but she was a hustler, and sent us all our childhood clothes, very very hardworking woman. I also heard she was gangster, could fight and insult. A woman's woman. My maternal grandpa was a wealthy oil guy never met him but he always sent stuff. My paternal grandma came from a wealthy family. Quite enlightened. She was in her 80's in the 80's and she could speak fluently Yoruba, Ibo, Bini and Hausa. Very brilliant woman, I wonder what she would have been today if she was in this generation, though she was a teacher. The mama will spoil us silly, but hated her Daughter In Laws. Hahahha. If we steal, she will blame them and insult them. If her sons do bad, na the imposter DIL cause am. LMAO. And she could abuse for Africa and you dare not insult or beat her grandkids especially the DIL's in her presence. I miss mama oooo. Chai. Child hood memories. Sweet mama, despite her meanness to her DIL's was a treasure to everyone else. I guess she had to be like that because she had all boys, she didn't want any woman destroying her family.
ReplyDeleteAny visit from my paternal grandmother will cause my parents to fight. My mum banned her from visiting after they had a big fight. She's late now but we heard nwii.
ReplyDeleteI love my maternal grandmom so much, though late (may your soul continue to rest in peace Mrs Veronica Dokpesi). I was so close to her. Each time I went to the village, I dye her hair and paint her nails. I cried my eyes out the day we lost her. I still miss her!
ReplyDeleteMy maternal grandmother is a grand witch that derives pleasure when all her kids are at war, she actually pits them against one another, she hates my mother especially so nah, I have no good memory of her, I am only waiting on her death which I pray happens soonest..
ReplyDeleteMama your evil in this world is enough.
Hmm?
DeleteEwoooo....
DeleteI miss my grand ma is an understatement. If I can immortalise I I for do that like 11years ago... she's the sweetest, quietest, loving n caring woman have ever seen. ooh yea! I did a lot for her(i am grateful to God for the privilege) I hawk for her, wash her cloths, cook, talk to her. But she has done more for me too( was my nanny for 19 years of my life) cooking, cleaning, pampering et al... she's the only woman who will not talk but I can hear the audibility of her silence. #ibiolametirinLivesOn#
ReplyDeleteDon't even know any of the grannies...
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm wish I knew them
Can't wait to travel to the villa for xmas, miss my step grand ma like mad!!!!...dint meet my paternal grandma but my step grandma is the mother of jokes, will always want to talk to any guy or girl that calls me and after speaking with her, the next time they call they will be like "give your grandma the phone, she's the one I want to speat with" lol...she also calls all my friends her sugar. If I and my siblings(the children she never had)don't treat her right who will?
ReplyDeleteThat reminds me of my grandma`s english, i tell you she speaks for Africa. hahahahahahaha
