OKON 2 “Wait!” The bus rolled to a stop, cutting off the spontaneous religious singing that had engulfed the bus as a result of a successful ministerial trip to the rental units next door. All eyes turned to gaze at Okon, who now stood in the middle of the bus as if he wanted to [...]

As usual, another brain candy from you, OALOT. I enjoyed this; however, be careful, young man. The Nazis spoke “perfect German.” Unfortunately they got (is that a hint of ebonics? My bad)tribal with it and embarked on a quest to wipe out folks that were “different.” Show me someone in good old England who speaks [...]

I’ve always told anyone that would listen: The artists, not the politicians, will lead the way in making our presence known in terms of world culture. Decades ago, marginalized voices in the African American community decided to do something about their situation: They said fuck the powers that were (the recording industry) and started something [...]

TO, I commend your effort to take a stab at the “elephant in the room” if you may. Lord knows that if there was a country that needed a revolution, we needn’t look beyond our naija borders. I hear someone say the other day, “Bring back the colonialists.” At least they made the trains run [...]

Fred, If I were Bimbo, I’d go there packing, not to kill the SOB, but to protect my ass. It takes away from her rep as a schemer (a sloppy one none the less), to go into the lion’s den not armed, especially if that lion wishes her ill will. Never be afraid to follow [...]

Good stuff, Fred. A slight hole in the plot:1) Bimbo wouldn’t go into her husband’s study without packing some heat (gun), especially since she knew what he knew; 2) All through the story, you’d presented Balogun as being one cool brother who keeps it together even when it’s hot. Heck, at the start of this [...]

U got a good thing going, bro. This is good! Made my points about typos yesterday, but it takes nothing away from the thrill of the story. Well done. Waiting for the next drop.

Big up, Fred. The plot to this thing is TIGHT. I agree that it’s verbose and needs the editor’s touch in most areas, but that’s why dem born editors, abi? Just kidding. I suggest to edit as much as possible because you never know who’s reading. I eagerly await the next one.
