I don talk am tipe tipe say, dat conference wey woman dem go do for Beijing dat year 1985, na im go scater dis world patapata.

Imagine, instead of to talk behind, now dem dey say “beside every successful man, there is a woman”. Besides ko, under ni.

Since after dat conference, dis world no be di same again. Abi I lie?

Na so Bose wake me up for midnight di order day. Sleep worry me gan becos dat evening, as I close for our garage wey dey near Ikeja under bridge, I branch Madam Shine buka, take four bottle of My Usual, take shine my eye.

As Bose wake me, I ask am why, e say e wan tell me someting.
