I dey happy well well because Mama Shalewa go cook jollof and fried rice for us. We never chop una food before. I go wait to see if na one meat abi na two meat una go put for the food on the day of the naming ceremony.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I never forget where I stop for my <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/blog\/letters-to-my-landlord-2\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">last letter<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> o. I dey tell you wetin I do you wen you no pay my wife her for soap. I simply waited for a day to catch you. Then, I saw mama Shalewa washing your clothes, one Saturday evening. She spread them on the line at the back of my <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/blog\/insider-view-to-luxury-apartments-in-ikoyi-lagos\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">window<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. I discovered that one of the pockets looked bigger than the other.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I wondered why it was so and why she didn&#8217;t notice it. It was already getting dark but there was light. I knew I needed to do something about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/blog\/5-best-places-for-singles-to-live-in-lagos\/\">the bigger pocket<\/a>. I needed to confirm my suspicion, but \u00a0I couldn&#8217;t because \u00a0Rofiat was sitting close to my window.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I tried something different. I sneaked into the kitchen to turn off the meter. Seeing that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/blog\/10-best-self-contained-apartments-for-bachelors-in-lagos\/\">other compounds<\/a> had light, Rofiat jumped from her seat to announce to everyone that something was wrong with our light. Immediately, I dipped my hand into your pocket and brought out the money that was inside the pocket.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I fulfilled my suspicion, it was money that was in your swollen pocket. I went inside my room to keep the money. Then, I went to join those that were looking for a solution to the light issues. They didn&#8217;t know that I disconnected it because we had no meter and they were all scared of the naked\u00a0wires twisted together. I told them that I would try fixing it before calling an electrician. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I fixed back the light in less than five minutes. I became a superstar in the house. By the time I went back inside the room to count the money, it was 15,500 Naira. I was so happy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next morning, you started fighting Mama Shalewa, claiming that she stole your money. I just stood by watching the both of you. I felt for her but I couldn&#8217;t help it. This time, I won. I went back to my room shoulder high. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may say that I am a thief, but I say you are a bigger thief because you have chosen to oppress poor Ajike. I paid Ajike and\u00a0 I bought Paraga with some of the money. I would always be one step higher you. Thank you for the money. Ajike needs my attention now. I would get back to you later, so we can continue. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tolet.com.ng\/blog\/letters-to-my-landlord-1\/\">Morufu my writer dey hail you<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I hail you!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Showman<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Show Man 1 Somewhere Rd, Ajegunle Lagos. 10th September 2016 Mr Landlord, 1 Somewhere Rd, Ajegunle Lagos. &nbsp;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":1969,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38,17],"tags":[223,284,150,244],"class_list":{"0":"post-1968","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-articles","8":"category-featured","9":"tag-accommodation-in-lagos","10":"tag-apartments-for-newlyweds","11":"tag-finding-an-apartment","12":"tag-lagos-landlord","13":"cs-entry","14":"cs-video-wrap"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1968"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1968\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11013,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1968\/revisions\/11013"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propertypro.ng\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
