Father Time

What’s really good people?

So three weeks later into the crazy sports white people play and I still don’t get the Winter Olympics O. I mean they already have the X-Games which nobody watches so what is the purpose of this one? I can understand how speed skating, figure skating with its (double axle, triple toe loop), skiing, etc. all of those events require endurance, strength, hand/eye coordination and balance which authenticates ones athleticism. Now all that other dare devil peanut butter & jelly you know what is some made up shittu a group of white kids in their privileged mormon community somewhere in Utah came up with one day during recess. And thanks USA Hockey for going 0-2 versus Canada this week, you really made me look good after all the banter my nephew and I exchanged all week.

(S/O) Looking forward to seeing my Old Man in the DMV in like 72 hrs.

(S/O) To all of the viewers, followers & readers of the MY OMO NAIJA blogspot. Thank you for your continued support. Love iz Love! P

  

Ok people; let me get focused…

So while I was away on donuts last week doing absolutely nothing productive whatsoever with myself, my cousin sent me this youtube prank video this Nigerian kid pulled on his dad. The video must have gone viral because I can count of the top of my head five different conversations in which people brought it up to my attention. The video was well done. (S/O) to the kid behind the project; it seems like nowadays everybody is uploading some type of Vine video on the internet on topics like growing up Afrikan, Afrikan parents, fast naija girls (You know who you are). 

Oh, you must have not yet received the memo, my Old Man is coming to the DMV to kick it with his namesake for a minute so we gonna do it B.I.G.

Now my pops aint like these stereotypical Afrikan parents you see or hear about as far as how he gets down. So this is my little quick play-by-play of how our reunion is going to go down in like 2 days;

• When I arrive at the airport to pick him up his going to be very easy to spot; just check for the man with SWAG out da Roof! He gonna be in full native garb or he might even mess around and stunt on folks with his special custom 3 piece suite. Why because he gets his custom but you a CUSTOMER.

• Till I die I must PROSTRATE ni o when first greeting my baba. That is the Yoruba custom. Now he might switch up on me and greet me back in Arabic, French, Portuguese, Spanish, even Old English self, it’s going to come down to which honey he trying to MACK in my presence. “IDMIU Keshi” as I fondly call him is an ambassador of the world. Lol.

• Then am going to say dad how was your trip? Are you tired or hungry? His response would be something like a quick prayer for given the Most High all the Praise for reuniting us and then his standard response for everything will soon follow, “ANY-TIN” will do son.

• Then we going to get on the road heading home from the airport and he will get into his stories like old times. And before you know it that 3 hour rush hour traffic gonna feel like a blur, why because I got the head & the patriarch riding SHUTGUN with P & there is no worries.
