"There was this day I was travelling to Abuja to shoot a movie and I got
into the aircraft and met this woman, she was older than my mother. As I
made to put my bag in the overhead compartment, I greeted her but she
didn't answer me. I just ignored her and sat down. On arrival in Abuja,
the woman was struggling to get her luggage from the compartment and I
just stretched my hand and helped her to get it. She asked for it
without a thank you but I refused to give it to her, offering to help
her take it down. On getting out of the aircraft, she again requested
for her luggage but I said, madam I'll take it to the arrival hall for
you and she looked at me with bewilderment."
"When we got to the arrival hall I turned to the woman and handed her
luggage to her and as I made to leave, she called me by my name. I was
surprised and retorted, so madam you even know my name. But why did you
not answer me when I greeted you on board the aircraft. She then said,
"Mike, I've come across a lot of your Nollywood mates and they seem to
be pigheaded so that is why I always want to distant myself from them." I
just smiled and told her I'm not like that."
She asked where I was going and I felt she wanted me to ride with her
into town. I told her I was in Abuja to shoot a movie. I then turned to
leave but some four or five policemen who must have come to pick her
told me to wait. I said what's my own, I've helped her to this place and
I want to go. They however insisted that I should wait. I didn't really
know who the woman was but the long and short of it all was that she
ended up giving me three plots of land in Abuja." ...
