Today, I had to attend a team-mate's wedding. I was sceptical about wearing my 'Iro and buba', thanks to Hyderabadi 'NEPA' for taking their light. The iro and buba was the only ironed outfit I had, every other was rumpled and there was no light, so I jejely decided to go the Nigerian way. My black skin was not the only reason for the stares, my iro and buba turned me to the TV at the wedding.
