Yesterday, I went to the market in the evening. I packed in front of one aboki and I decided to patronize him.
I needed plenty things but I started with ginger. I needed just a small amount of ginger small just to make food that evening.
I asked the guy how much for one very small portion.
Him: Na 3,500.
Me: Ewooo. I thought it’s 300?
Aboki: Looked at me from head to toe and kept quiet.
I asked him how much last and he said make I dey go forward. Na to just carry big car block person you sabi. Shishi you no get.
I went to his neighbor and he spoke Hausa to him telling him that I’m an unserious buyer.
I asked his neighbor how much is Irish potatoes and he said 12k.
I screamed again.
The first aboki: you no fit buy ginger na Irish you want buy?
Me: I swallowed my spit hard and focused.🤣🤣🤣 why this guy just dey sub me na watin I no understand.
The second aboki said Irish is 9k last and I told him to give me 2 baskets. Banana is 10k and I bought a bunch. I bought ginger 1,500 and a basket of tatashi.
His packaging bags finished and he called his neighbor to give him some.
First aboki: She wan buy?
Second aboki: bring something jor.
He finished packing what i bought and I brought out mints, passed it across my nose like they do in movies and gave the guy to count.
The first aboki: 👇
