John So I paid this neighbor of mine a visit yesterday evening. They had only recently moved into our compound and I have been longing to have a taste of his wife’s delicious dishes. When I had knocked at their door, they opened up and welcomed me warmly, and before I could settle down, the wife had served me hot eba and ogbono soup. I had already started eating when the husband walked into the living room and settled on the sofa. We soon began to discuss.
NEIGHBOR:Gozzy, hope you’re enjoying your meal? ME: Ah! This one pass enjoyment o… Ogbono soup and chicken in this Tinubu era is a huge luxury.
NEIGHBOR: We thank God for his timely provisions. Does the meat taste like chicken?
ME: Of course na… Abi na turkey?
NEIGHBOR: Y’know my brother, God actually works wonders o. Early this morning I heard something scratching my zinc and when I had rushed outside to check it out, I discovered it was a vulture… So I quietly picked a stone, launched at it and killed it. ME: Woah! very good. Sir, any vulture you see in this compound is not ordinary, believe me..
All of dem na winch!
NEIGHBOR: So Gozzy, I began to think, instead of just throwing it away, why not utilize it. So I had to properly dress the vulture and personally fried it very well… And then my wife had to use it to prepare small ogbono soup for the family.
