In Abuja

Yours truly is back in Abuja. It was a great relief for me to leave the hustle and bustle of Lagos. Apologies to all Lagosians, una guys too rough for that side o. Coupled with lack of electricity! E don do for me. As a matter of fact, I tried!

If you know Temmy very well, you go know say I no too like to dey fly. Not with all the recent crashes in Nigeria. I no kuku get choice yesterday morning cos I couldn't just subject myself to 8 hours road trip.

Got to the airport for 11am, flight was with AERO CONTRACTORS. Flight was not till 1.30pm. While I was checking in my bags, i was told that the man after my heart will be on the same flight with us. I went weak in the knees almost immediately. This is a dream coming true.......
King SUNNY ADE!

You need to know how much I love this man. It is so bad that at some point in my life I would have traded my EX to marry him and become wife number 35 and trust Temmy I told him so. He is such a pleasant old man. I asked him if he still does all those crazy dance steps and he said to me: ''Ko le tan la ra''(It is a part of me). We sat down together for about 15 minutes with me conducting a mini interview. At last he agreed to come and sing at my wedding.

Then I turned round and then it was PIUS IKEDIA. He used to play for SUPER EAGLES. For football lovers, he was once a star! We sat together in the waiting room catching up on football gist. A wonderful guy. Trust Naija now, flight was delayed for an hour! I don't even want to talk about the air hostess that served me drink on the flight......story for another day.

MR O AND I.

Mr O is in the UK at the moment for 3 weeks. I miss him a great deal but since his mum calls me every other day, I have decided not to miss him.

Can someone please warn DESOLA for me. Where did she come about the gist of Temmy being pregnant. I go swear for her o, big time. As a matter of fact I will send awon Isale Eko boys to go and beat her up. Lol.


Mr O sent me an email today, I so much wish I could share the details with you. Lets say excerpts from the email sha:

You know its funny,but i was so sure we were not going hit it off . Like said I had given up on women had no regards for them anymore till i met you. Still can not explain how you were able to do it,or how some man has not been able to snatch you, I guess God decided that despite my unbelief, he was going to make foolish my wisdom and make me realise why he is Lord over my life.


Mr O, maybe I should tell you that you are God's answer to my prayers. I told him to bring to me my friend, a brother, someone I can look up to morally, spiritually and in other ways. He brought you to me.

I know and I believe that you mean well for me.
You have told me.
You have shown me.
Thank you.

soul said...

erm Temmytayo..
You better watch yourself..
Now this.. I've been in love with King Sunny Ade before I even understood the meanings of the words he sang...

i was singing his songs before I knew a lick of Yoruba and damnit I jumped straight onto his lap when ironically I met him also on a flight in the '80's.

I would still give anything to sit on his lap again and he just has to say the word... I would be wife number 75 gaan sef. it don't matter.

Sunny Ade is that man!. He is mos def.. all that and a bag of chips.
i wanna have his babies.

so back off!. lol

After every thing, my brother and I wanted small holiday. I will try and come back before the end of the year, will you be there??

Demi said...

Temmy, Temmy, come and look at something! I saw the cutest baby basket but I wasn't sure if to buy pink or blue! But from the way you've described Mr.O, the baby is most likely to be a baby girl...? Oh, you should see the cutest baby dresses i saw I gap, they'll be so cute for my god-daughter!

By the way, i've got the baby shower on the lock down o. I have a fantastic centrepiece for the shower...ehen, should me make it a mixed shower or girls only? I think a mixed shower will be more fun though.

I'll be going to naija next month so I can make some nice 'oja' for you too. Don't tell me you're not gonna back your baby o. I won't here of it. I'll sew enough ankara wrapper too. What else...? Erm...i'll be back. Wait o!
