Aristide

About the Book

When he was there for the first time, he learnt that he had to turn his trousers over so as to prevent it from getting dirty and learnt that each time he killed a bed bug, he had to put the stained fingers to his nose smelling them and then wipe the blood of the insect on the wall on which he had scratched his name and date of admittance…The strong force of Christendom with many wearing and bearing crosses did their very best in the wicked art of blood spilling with the conviction that they were inspired by the Almighty…Getting to Oshodi for the first time caught Aristide's admiration so he wasted time in looking at the population and traffic…On the faces of the population, he saw seriousness, conviction, and endless aspiration. On those of the drivers, he saw stress, anger and desperation…The idle people in Lagos are busy. The lazy are handy. ARISTIDE - A decisive story of a bildungsroman
