It was Wednesday December 20th and most of his mates, in the office, who intended registering for the same program, had already gone with people from other agencies and offices to Jos, 2 months earlier.

The keke man said "isn't it the one at New Market? that is N200" "But that's too much, it's not even far from here" said Picolo.
