Naija′s New Year
In the heart of Naija as the clock tick-tocks into 2024, two friends, Tunde and Chinyere, decided to welcome the new year with a unique celebration.
They gathered at Tunde's house with plenty of jollof rice, fried chicken, and a playlist that could make even the grumpiest neighbor dance. As the countdown began, they each held a list of New Year resolutions.
Tunde, being the optimistic one, declared, "This year, I go learn how to fly, become Naija's first flying man!"
Chinyere laughed, "Tunde, you no go fit fly, but I go join you to learn how to turn jollof rice into gold. We go call am 'Jollof Alchemy.'"
As the clock struck midnight, they tossed their resolutions into the air, hoping they'd magically come true. Instead of fireworks, imaginary jollof rice and flying Tunde cutouts filled the room.
Their neighbors, hearing the commotion, joined the party. One aunty exclaimed, "Ah, na so this New Year dey do magic? Make I join!"
So, Tunde, Chinyere, and the entire neighborhood spent the night laughing, dancing, and imagining the wildest resolutions.
As the sun rose on January 1, 2024, Tunde looked at Chinyere and said, "E be like say flying fit hard small, but who know, maybe our jollof alchemy go bring us gold rice!"
And so, in the spirit of Naija, where laughter knows no bounds, Tunde and Chinyere welcomed the new year with dreams as big as the imagination and a promise to turn every moment into a celebration.
