Adewale Sobowale
I got a friend request yesterday.
It was from a former student of mine.
Who am I not to have immediately accepted the request?
After accepting the request, I settled down to do this and that.
In the latish hours, while jejely obeying the panegyric of my roots,
Omo oru laa sika;
Taa ba se losan;
Aa ni farare lo!
– I got a call on Messenger; it was the guy intruding on my privacy.
I thought he was in Nigeria, so I asked if he was not sleeping. He said he wasn’t in the country. Apparently, I was thinking of those days when I had to hurry them to their beds from girl-chasing.
Ah tor!
Then I received a shocker…
He is not only in Canada, but he’s in Ottawa. He’s been here for two years doing his master’s.
We spoke at great length.
At least, I know with him, I’ll have someone to punish if they offend me!
Naturally, I invited him to an interview on The Migrant Online. He accepted but said he’ll be available at the end of this month.
Osinuga Olumide is a boy; sorry, MAN, I’m so pleased to be associated with.
