...ThE wAZOBIA LIFE....


The Wazobia Gazette was started by H and Flo'o in contibution to give back to their society. A very smart minimag, TWG as it is called is expected to be a bestseller. Already expected to be a smash; the minimag is going where no other Nigerian mag has tought of going. A focus is made on FAN BASE PAPI a group started by Nna Sam for Papi Flo'o. The Wazobia Gazette is truly and proudly NIgerian. The hustler mix tapes series is also discussed in extent. To get a copy of this goto...thewazobiagazette@googlegroups.com.

PRAY HARD 2


That pretty girls not looking pretty anymore, that smiling boy don’t wear a smile anymore dejected by all the wrongs he’d seen all his life they’ve been saying things would change and now he’s 48. Still all the light does is “blink blink” all you still see are beggars everywhere. All we still do na “flash flash” and all the kids do na “toil toil” with the tray on the head walking miles after miles, all dem mama do na sorrow think, all the youths see na frustration no fit further school! Nobody send!! After dem say make we no posh!!! The tap don’t run you can’t even wash your hands for doing a dirty job that don’t pay you well trekking to cut distance can’t go on a bus “they fix dem price just right”. Don’t blame them cuz they have to catch-up like you have to catch up and she has to catch up and he has to catch up, and when everybody is playing the catch-up game, no one is going to catch save for those on-top who tell us to pray.
Pray hard! That’s all they say
Pray hard!! Every night and day
Pray hard!!! They keep telling us pray!
Pray hard! Pray hard!! No changes
The only thing there is to pray about is myself, because when I think am up there then I see am no-where, life is an unstable boat you could fall anytime so I need to pray to God to keep my feet on the ground cuz if I don’t, ill drown by the flood of this corrupt leaders or get hit by the bullet of the men in black. Do we also have to pray for this to stop? Did we give them the guns or did the FG do. I don’t understand these leaders what are their plans? Operation eliminate the poor?. Sam papa was aging no pension money and now he’s dead still they tell him to pray
PRAY HARD INDEED.

PRAY HARD 1


Like the sermon of the pastors and the imam, it’s like an everyday story you see in the movie fake prophet and all that I guess you know. The ones who preach good are the ones who do bad. Like the Pharisees and the Sadducees outward they seem as holier than thou, but in the chambers of them hearth if they truly got an hearth is a rotten can of worm, the kind that feast on the waste of our leaders I mean the many-many goodies they throw away as waste without even knowing. Leaving the poor to muzzle hustle scramble litter fight and die over nothing. They say we should pray! “The country will surely get better” how can we pray when we know it’s in their hands like a toy in a baby’s hands never worn let go.
I think we should pray for fire to come down.
I think we should pray this leaders so scared
I think we should pray they’ll burn to ashes…many years of fighting, still we going back and we the worst for it things not getting better.
Don’t go mad at your brother when things not going good, be mad at this leaders, they raise your hopes only to bring you down, I think they are toiling with us, we are like puppets to them, all they care is for them belly and them families store in reservoir for generation not yet born in Swiss America everywhere else. They feed the countries leave us here to starve keep telling us to pray, pray on empty stomach for theirs to get bigger. If you want to play the fool brother keep praying.

Naija!



Lets talk about Naija the real jungle even Sodom and Gomorrah cant rank with all the looting the killing theft robbing people in day light here the weakling dies the poor are oppressed and the curny is respected. Its no fairy tale, its here for real like am here for real (F.l.O.2.da.country boy) from surulere from the Igbo cline.
Even Jesus can tell looking down today worst than when he came around things so tight every corner you go. You gat to sweat hard to get a little piece of cheese, our girls and pretty ladies turn to sluts make some dough and quickly hop in a wedding gown when they do the bang-bang and the off-spring comes they coming up with AIDS the leaders of tomorrow they coming up with frustration pain dejection scattered dreams even the kids crying it’s a hard knock life won’t go to school trey on the head….the youths doing posh! Everyday for for-sight doing illegal runs anyway to hang on. Like to figure out before that brother how to get there DAMN! The corps the government too should go to hell because when you falling no one is thinking about you but when u down they pick you up and put you in jail
Life is like a jungle only the strong walk tall if you see the light brother keep walking.

sminoff

Country Love!


TRUE STORY OF A COUNTRY BOY
People ask me what country is. What’s country music?
Just like Eche asked me “what role would you love to play” and I just said “Robin Hood” am a country boy hood boy ghetto boy I get a little bit of it everyday. From bathing my dog (I’ve got a dog, her names sassy) to eating roasted or cooked corn with coconut am a true country boy. Hearing the siren from the ice cream man walking in the dusty streets, horn yapping in the tight streets of eko, most be the hood, surely the hood
In the country it’s more money more problems. So when on the bus just like my fellow country people, spending hours on go slows, then like scavengers comes the hawkers my fellow hustlers in different form. From the ghetto and the hoods, I feel naija breeze most be the country!

...a page with a cover model!


....i got interviewd by eche on a lot of issues on this page of the gazette..to me it was more of a freestyle interview..by the way the show for dec17 is still coming up strong...cya

...street HUSTLER!


The street is my hustle!

The street is my office!!

From ojuelegba remember?

P.R.O for the boss

Always faithful in the rain and the sun

Twos I back then you saw with the tie

Co-prate shirt with the ko-ko shoe

Twos I who you saw washing the clothes

Small-small to get some dough

Talk about the times we sold dope to hang on

Feels good when the money grease the hand

Business before pleasure

No time to waste

No free meal in a free town so they say

I love the path I tread

Though coming up the rank twos;

Dejected moods…how’s tomorrow gon be

I lived with this torture everyday on my mind

Coming up the ranks!

I’ve seen fake niggars acting

People who won do what really they are not

Its better they hate you for whom you are

Than being loved for whom you’re not

Can’t blame them,

Everywhere seemed sealed

It’s like a mad rush of water when that brother finds a way

Everyone’s heading to the same direction

Whatever happened to being steadfast?

Original and true

Where the fucks are the ideas of this many-many people?

We not all just a phase of black and white

There be colored screens

...this is what been cooking!

...Still cooking, but you sure gonna get every bit of it when its done. It is called The Wazobia Gazette. First of its kind for obodo Naija. Its quite a privelage to be on the cover; in fact its mind blowing...I love it, but its just a tip of the iceberg. And like i said; you'll get it all when its done.

so i hope you all grab a copy when its out, because its your own!

I have been contributing to it as well, becoming a publisher wasn't part of my plan...but here i am! And somehow, i am doing what i love doing. Truly i love doing it, but i just didn't plan it...but its good.

Met a couple of great people recently; but i think i am becoming the greatest amongst them...BY the way...
,,,a suprise is on the way....Hustler Mix tapes is all i will say!

ciao and see you soon....in blogland and reality!

flow with the tide...

Men! Things just flashing thru with the speed of light…like a lost wanderer am trying to retrace myself back to present day…kind of hard so ill just flow with the tide.

confidence


Chi-chi2 was this fine laid back sexy dude (sorry she) was pretty and all, but she was timid and fragile someone must
have taken advantage…then there were the three musketeers..Chi-chi, chineye...Whats the thirds can’t remember…but among them all was confidence...naturalist and confidence mixed to perfection.
We had left ikorodu for the new location...eleko beach…I, confidence and chi-chi2 walked to the beach...I had been walking bear footed all thru for the two days we spent on site (Tuesday and Wednesday) the sun was blazing like fire, I was dressed in warriors outfit, no shoes on, the sand in the beach as hot as those used for frying groundnut. Serious no kidding…so I stayed under the shed for sometime…then came confidence requesting that I walked her to the beach… so we walked…chi-chi2 joined us …men the sand was hot! Twos like my foot was going to burn out, but I was kind of getting used to it…confidence had slippers on...But the sand was burning her so much she couldn’t bear it so she hoped like a duck…we managed to get to the sea shore though…there we cooled off in the water.

girls girls1


its funny how so many girls can blow your mind and fade in no time.
i want to take out time to talk on some of the girls in the production(ultimate wrestler)at first we were just about four guys to over twenty female models on set.
am this kind of layeed back person ..that i dont know or you probably dont know how we began ...probably why they call me flo....just wondering.
the first sign of chemistry reaction was faith but hers varnished as soon as it began...then i saw the signs in chi-chi or is it ify...no its chi-chi...she was natural maybe to a fault so too was ada..chi-chi2 was this layed back.......

...Sorry for the break in transmission!

its been more than a week since i came on board...that was last week Monday, on my way from Ikeja. I and Donizula. Our mission was that off mixed feeling. The bus we had boarded on our way from Ikeja to Ojuelagba started off by pushing before it could start. It looks like a lengthy story...
On the way about 5pm, the cloud became dark and the rain started pouring...it was in this rain before we got to Maryland that the bus stopped and the driver, after a long time came down and started mumbling things at the engine. Ok...
Everyone in the bus were wildly aggravated, but with a dose of comedy and laughter....Ok...it was not really funny. {laughs}
...We had stayed at the same point for over 30Min's, no one was in sight to help push the bus, the rain was pouring but you couldn't go nowhere...
