My name is Aliu. I am 24 years old. I come from Kafanchan, Katsina. My village is very far from where I am currently. I ran away from my village in 2018 after bandits killed my father, and started terrorising the community.
This is my story; Catch up on Part 1 here, and Part 2 here
In today’s edition…
My people! Aunty from the yellow office came to our shed yesterday oo. She confirmed our address and told us to come to their office today. I am very happy.
Quadri and I are going to the yellow office today. I even wore yellow shirt to match the colour of the office. The yellow ogas said we would start the training today.

Today at the training, they told us that we should also wear our helmets on our bikes so that we can protect ourselves from any accident that can happen. They showed us the helmet. It is yellow too.
These yellow people ehn, their karamo is too much. But I like it sha. The helmet is fine. Soon, people will call me the yellow man. All yellow.
Oh wait! When I climb my yellow bike, with my yellow shirt and my yellow helmet — I will look like those superhero in action film, them Batman. No, joor!. Broda Waheed calls them avengers!
I don find new nickname oo. Aliu, the yellow avenger.
Hmm… Aliu, the yellow avenger. Sounds fresh, abi?
Who am I saving now? Smh.
I am still in the training. My mind is travelling far oo. But, the name is nice sha..
They have said another thing oo. They said we should always overtake by the right and we should always wear our chin guard. That one will be easy to remember. The chin guard sounds like chin chin.
Tomorrow, we start!
I am Aliu, the yellow avenger! Nice to meet you.
