Nigeria: Xmas in my home town

Jangbalajugbu-Homeland Stories writes that like millions of other Nigerians at Christmas time, he is off to his home town which is called Saki in Oyo State where the heat is intense and the hammatan season is in full force. “Saki is like some two and a half hours from Ibadan, the largest city in West Africa, south of the Sahara. The journey to Saki is such a long one and its the Christmas season that always give me the courage to travel that far, away from the things I do back in the major cities.”
