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.

you iro and buba is on point! So nice to "meet" another aiesecer! i've only met one African/black aiesecer in Beijing in the two years i've been living here. I guess they prefer to go to other countries. I've had India on my mind since.......
