Reader: Stares at my Caine Prize
workshop story and goes, “Wahala Lizard, is he Nigerian?”
Abubakar Adam Ibrahim: You mean
Nkiacha? He’s a Nigerian on the other side of the border.
Obi-Young: But you could so
easily be Nigerian. You have our It-ness.
Me: I don’t have a Nigerian face!
Obi-Young: Nigerian face is a
concept that’s up for debate
Me: Ok, interesting! How do I
have your It-ness? Abeg elaborate.
Obi-Young: I’m not sure how but I
just feel it. Honestly.
Kiprop Kimutai: Your accent is
like a Nigerian’s. You speak like them.
Me: First time I’m hearing that
one. Lol. I don’t know. But we’re neighbours. And I've read Nigerian Literature
much more than Cameroonian Literature.
Akwaeke Emezi: (Pointing at me
with both hands) “You’re a Lagos boy!”
Me: Lol. What does that one mean?
Lagos boy?
Merde, why do all these my peeps
think I'm a Nigerian born to Cameroonian parents? Nobe small ting oh
