Looking for Nigerias Sesame Street..... Now in case you dont know the days of Sesame Street, it was just few years back, when we came back from school by 2pm thereabout, there was no DSTV, or Arabsat, no startimes, but playtime was there and it came in various forms, as we patiently waited for Sesame Street. Months later my birthday would come, and we had Treetop juice; Do you remember Treetop, mom would add some cups of water, it was often as sweet as the top of the tree it came from. We drank and had our fill till we stained our clothes. Reliable Elephant blue detergent did the rest. It was just like yesterday. In most middle class homes, which anyway was the case in almost all of Nigeria, we never lacked Stella Pomade, or the white one, I think Jet Cream it was. And my mom would scrub us with sponge laced in foam from Premier or lifebuoy soap. Kai Nigeria sai Allah. in Sesame Street, most of us all went to public schools but now, except you want to ruin it for the kid…better look for the cheapest nonsense called ‘private school. Ghanaians came to Nigeria as teachers, to sell ‘puff-puff and repair our shoes, and watch Sesame Street, but we pursued them in Ghana must go bags. Now our leaders have stolen us dry in same Ghana must go bags and we are fleeing to Ghana to be educated. In Sesame Street while driving and your car broke down on the highway, all you need do was to wave and other cars driving by would fall on themselves to help you. However today, armed robbers would attack you on the same highway and leave you practically naked and fellow Nigerians would drive pass and ponder in the car with their partner…see fresh mad man. Lol
