My mother!!
Who sat and watched my infant head,
When sleeping on my cradle bed,
And it's not me who wrote that pooooeeem,
My mother!!
My mom ia an amaaazing woman!! She's beautiful (one time most beautiful girl in Unical), intelligent, Godly and S-T-R-I-C-T!!!!!
She is a disciplinarian to the core. My mom will flog you and you will sing of the goodness of the Lord. I mean, we all had koboko, custom made from Watt market, lying in piles in her room. When you mess up, just start crying bcos my mom is a strong believer of Pro. 13:24. You can never get "used" to her flogging. They are new every morning, new every morning, great is thy faihfulness....".... Hallelujah somebody.
It's worse when you have those "busy body Aproko" neighbours that come to your house as early as 6am to come and "greet" your mother. They probably saw you talking to a guy the previous night. I clearly remember one like that, she saw me talking to this guy, and I tell you it was innocent!! I was in SS1 or so, and I was supposed to take part in a quiz, but didnt go to school that day. He was bringing me up to speed, and we were standing under a mango tree talking. This woman told my mom I was standing beside a flower talking to a boy. I wan die!!
Next thing I heard was Andikan!! See my mom will flog you and all you will hear is Fiam!!! You this child!! Fiam!! Fiam!! I did not give my mother headache!! Fiam!! Fiam!! Fiam!! You will not kill me!! And you here will be shouting "ayai"!!, mummy please ooo, she will say, "if I hear peem!! You'll see!! Just put your hand, I will cancel it". How on earth will I not rub my bum bum??
Then to crown it all, as she's leaving the house, she will tell you to wash beans for moi moi, wash bitterleaf for soup (all those work wey no dey get head), tidy the house and wash the plates...the way she will say it soo casually like she just asked you to boil egg...sai!!! my mother ooooo
Has your mom flogged you before and you wondered deep in your heart if she really is your mom?? Looool...I did that many times!!
But looking back, nna mehn, the flogging shaped me and addressed my wrongdoings, and I will forever cherish the values it instilled in me.
I love you mommmmmy!!!
