Part 2 We kept pets, i.e., cats & dogs & grew lots of plants, crops, veggies, etc. It was unusual if you didn't rear chickens in your compound. I'm aware ABU Zaria is not the same way we left it. Zaria has become quite a strict Muslim city & many Christians have to adhere to their lifestyle. It's sad that a Federal institution is subject to such rules, but intolerance has deeply influenced the atmosphere. We left Zaria in 1994 & by then once a Christian (Northern origin or otherwise) who is eligible is voted in or ascends to the position of power, a riot will take place. They would claim the Christians want to dominate them, take over their land, etc. It doesn't matter if this christian is from Kaduna state or answers an Arabic name like some of them do. Let's also remember, this is a Federal University & not a State owned institution. Competence ought to take precedence over religious background, but hey, we are in Nigeria, so... Before we left, cattle rearers kept finding cracks in the walls & probably expanding them to enter the university. The cows go to the residential area, eat your crops & drop their waste all over your compound. If you try to challenge the cattle herdsman or herdsmen, they could show/threaten you with a dagger. We all know what the dagger has metamorphosed to. We left, & many more families left afterwards. I grew up on a street with so much diversity. We had one Hausa/Muslim family. We also had a British family living opposite my house. When they left, Germans moved in. There were Indians further down the road. We had Yorubas, Nupes, Igalas, Idomas, Igbos, Tivs, Itsekiris, Ibibios, Efiks, Biroms, etc My hood was a mini Nigeria like it was supposed to be. Then extreme intolerance happened to it. We have all witnessed what intolerance can do to a community. Can we all decide to do better in our mini ecosystems? Promote Competence & Merit & do away with Favourites or Quota systems. If we do & cascade such down to the Grassroots Nigeria will thrive and e.x.p.l.o.d.e with greatness once again. Musings of @nwadiutoikontaodiran Dance steps by ABU families in Lagos.

I'm feeling nostalgic this morning. Many decades ago, we stayed in Area F of ABU staff quarters. My parents had their hands full taking care of 4 children along with about 3 to 5 cousins at the same time. Our cousins were undergraduates who lived on campus but came over for the weekend or a hot meal before heading back to campus. In all of this chaos, my Dad finished his PhD & we had to host some guests to celebrate. He was in his early 4th floor decade by then. My cousins had another convocation party they wanted to attend but my parents need them to assist serve their guests like it actually should be. They sulked and stayed mostly in their room. We 4 kids, did a lot of serving and organising to the delight of our parents. My mum was with child and though in the early stages, she obviously needed assistance. She is strongest when she's pregnant but that's a story for another day. My dad is a music man. He was the DJ at practically every Rotary Club party. My siblings and I and a few neighbours had rehearsed correct steps to "Every little step I take" by Bobby Brown and performed it. The adults loved it. Come to think of it, mum where's my share of the money we were sprayed? It was a fun day & we kids enjoyed dancing for the guests. Later that year, my liil sis was born. I really enjoyed growing at ABU Zaria main campus before Nigeria became heavy on Tribalism, Nepotism, Favouritism, Religious Fanatics etc We left the North because of the increase in religion intolerance and riots. Many times, my heart yearns for our neighbours and neighbourhood where we grew up. Fortunately, I keep meeting them in Lagos. I long for the days we rode our bikes back home from Area E lessons or from common entrance lessons at ABU staff school. I long for the numerous fruits in our compound and that of our neighbours. No one bought certain fruits because your neighbours had. You just needed permission to pluck them. Part 2 coming soon
