I was on my way out of the ATM when a good looking young man walked in. I had just withdrawn 5 Thousand Naira and was rushing off to the market to get the things I need. I greeted him as I always do with a smile and he responded in a lovely way. His accent was on point. He extended the greeting by asking for more. Please Maam, can you please help me with this ATM transaction as I am not very conversant with Nigerias ATM. I said Sure. With in me, I was excited to know that an abroad returnee couldnt make use of our ATM. I felt more useful than him at that moment. So this clean guy from outside the country who wore a blue rugged Jean short, a cream polo, a white Nike canvas, brought out his wallet, gave me something I thought was an ATM card until I tried to slot it into the machine. Please sir, I said to him, this is a complimentary card. Awww! Gosh! He Said. With a smile he said, sorry, it was a mistake. I gave the card back to him and watched him search his wallet for his ATM. Then he struck. Sorry dear. I must have misplaced the ATM card. Nawaoooo!!!. Am stuck here. What do I do? I looked at him, said sorry and tried to walk away. He spoke again, please dear, I need to take some money to my mum right now. Can you please give me 15 thousand Naira? Ill give you a 150dollars here and now. Interesting! I dont have that kind of money I said to the returnee. He dropped another of his well practiced lines. He said, use your ATM. Thats why you have it . I responded, walk to the next pole, theres a bureau d change. Use their services. Thats why you have dollars. I ran off. I heard him say, stingy Igbo girl. I smiled to myself and responded within jonsing returnee with an outdated scam format. Ana acho ihe na akpa onye na acho ihe? (Do you search for something in the bag of someone that is searching for something?) Thats talent for you but wait a minute, this guy was well packaged, but the Content of his format was outdated. Leads me to say:outward packaging without the right inward content is proportional to unproductive venture. Think well before you table your proposal. Okwu agwu!(End of discussion!) Hehehehehehe. Yours Truly... Amazing Obiee.
