This is a thread of some of the gist-able things my wealthy privileged northern friends/acquaintances did that would have led to my death if I tried it with my dad.

These are drawn from my experiences in Kano, Maiduguri and Abuja.

I’ll use fake names.
In Uni, Sani went to Ahmed’s house and borrowed Ahmed’s mother’s car to run an errand.

And he sold the car.

When it was discovered, Sani’s father offered to buy back the car but Ahmed’s father refused saying Sani is like a son to him.
When I was 15, It was Ibro’s birthday and we threw a party at his house.
When his dad came back, we made all the babe hide until he goes to his apartment.

He came in and asked where the babes were, we said there wasn’t any

He gave us 20k to buy more refreshment and invite babes
In Uni, Ibrahim toasted a deputy governors daughter and she said she couldn’t be seen with someone that drives a 1998 Honda Accord.
(She drove a Rav 4)

He told his wealthy father about it and he came to school the next day with an S500 Benz.
Junior (not northern) committed an offense in primary school and his parents were invited.

His mother came and an argument ensued in the principal’s office and junior told the mother “Fuck You”

He’s still alive as we speak.
Yusuf had banker parents and in Primary school, he stole 20k naira from the parents.
We spent the money on candy and soda for two weeks until the parents found out.

The balance of what we spent was 18k.

5 of us (and our women) spent 2k in two weeks.
In secondary school, Abu bumped in to 10m cash at his father’s generator house and he took it.

He bought a house on their street in Kano where we threw parties and lived out best lives

The father found out later and moved him to another country.

No one has seen him since then.
In Uni Ahmed and Ahmad found and stole over 20m from their uncle whom they lived with

When the man found out, we were sure they will be dead and cremated.

He called them back home scolded them and Ended by telling them “in kuna son abu, ku tambaya kawai”

He left them the money
Sani and Sule were arrested for smoking weed by the police and as soon as the DPO found out whose child they were, he personally took them home and handed them to the dad.

Basically police came to report to the dad.

Anyway he built a Gazebo in the compound where we now smoked.
This one is a bonus gist.

Our Neighbour’s mansion burnt down in Kano because of generator so he vowed to never use gen again.

He had an arrangement with NEPA and we enjoyed near 24hrs light on that area for a loooong time.

Before badbelle people convinced him to buy gen again
Abu always lied to his parents when he keep late nights that he had to go drop his best friend (family approved) at home.

This went on for a while and to solve the problem, Abu’s dad bought a car for Abu’s friend.

So he can stop dropping him off before coming home.
