The Garinja Files. A dystopian novella by Leke Alder
Chapter 13 - Atmospheric pressure
Chapter 13 - Atmospheric pressure
1. The atmospheric pressure in Garinja is high. Everything is power-based. At any moment in time, someone somewhere is trying to exert power over someone somewhere. And that includes gatemen. The country is an interconnected weave of tyrannical tendencies. #GarinjaFiles
2. It’s how the society functions. Bosses are Oga. That terminology is hierarchical and deterministic. Because everything is power-based there is no service culture. There’s no civility in the language of service. Even advisory notices at the airport require compliance by order!
1. Senator Olowookere descended from the belly of the aircraft. He was the first off the plane – a Virgin Atlantic Airbus A330-200 from London. As befits his newly acquired status he travelled first class. #GarinjaFiles
2. The senator is a new “political elite,” a first-term senator. His carriage changed. Behind his back he’s uncharitably referred to as arriviste - omo oju orolari. #GarinjaFiles
1. I spent the lockdown period thinking about so many things. I wondered about the weirdness of the pandemic. It all seemed so surreal. But then I decided to creatively maximize my time by penning a novella, The Garinja Files. #GarinjaFiles
2. It's a dystopian work and you'll find it a most interesting and enjoyable read. It is a fictionalised account. I will begin serialising the book on my social media platforms from tomorrow, posting a chapter a day. #GarinjaFiles
3. After the serialisation, you can download the entire book for FREE. Hopefully, we can begin to have so many conversations about nationhood and the man underground. The people are coming! #GarinjaFiles
