    The first picture is Papa Chinedu, the Electrician at Eze street. That man can pepper us then with that box TV. Then, watching Mike "Mike Ori ihe di Nma" was like looking for dolphin in Nigeria Ocean.
    The second picture, was my everything. I will waka from Robinson street to Obiagu to buy honey, and if it is not ready, l will wait for it.
    I started selling it at a point but long throat will not allow me.
    That honey sweet is so so sweet!!!
