WHAT SHE SAID
The Inside Gist: I Wish I Did More for Myself
Hey Tega! What made you want to interview a woman in her 50s?
If you listen close enough, older people always have a story someone needs to hear. This was a random evening sitting with my mum’s friend when she got into those “When I was your age…” chats.
When did you decide you cared about her story?
I realised I was literally about to relive a semblance of her life from 1992. I was packing up to leave my home in Abuja for Lagos, and was in the “I’m going to make it big” mood as well.
What would you say is the most interesting thing about her?
Her experience as “Small Pepper” made me laugh a lot. Like, how do you have the guts to steal an elderly man’s palm wine kegs at 13?
