Dairy of an Ajebutter Corper: Kaduna Soldiers Want To Kill Me, Literally

I've always known that one day my writing and rants on
social media would get me into trouble. I remember one time in year 4 I
wrote an article about something that happened iny school that almost
got me expelled, I've written bizzare articles that the head of the
family had to call a family meeting to chastise me and tell my mother
she gave birth to the devil. I've written articles that got me a lot of
hate mails and well, it was all fun and games to me. As I write this
article I'm currently in hiding cuz a whole barrack of soldiers are
after me.
It all started when a girl
in my school was raped by 4 soldiers, it happened in a Village so the
thing was kept on a hush hush level and nothing was done about it. When I
heard about it I was pissed off because those soldiers would just go
Scott free and after raping the girl they even told her that her friends
were next, they were that bold. So I did what any trained journalist
would, I investigated and wrote about it and sent it to Bella Naija and
Linda ikeji. Linda Ikeji being the proud person she was didn't even
answer me but Bella Naija published my story and it got a lot of
comments and attention.
The next day was my nysc CDS and
usually I don't go for cds but out of sheer boredom I decided to go for
it and while in cds I got a call from one of the staff in my school
that two vans of armed soldiers came to school to look for Corper Ope
and they shut the whole school down saying if they didn't provide Corper
Ope they would scatter the whole place. Was I scared? Fuck yes, when I
was 16 I chop beating from just one soldier for wearing army khaki,
imagine what would happen if a fuckload of soldiers came to treat my
fuckup.
For the meantime I'll lay low
and not go to the village for like a week and I'd do what I love doing
best.. I'd tour the whole of Nigeria. In case you hear that I'm dead or
in a coma just know that it was Kaduna soldiers who did it.
