03:12 Okay guys so we are now at my parents house. You guys, my dad was in his farm. This was
03:19 an Easter Sunday, my dad doesn't joke with his farm. So this day was Easter Sunday and
03:25 it was on his farm, they've gone to call him from his farm. My mom was inside. Initially
03:31 my mom thought my junior sister, she was already in Nigeria two weeks before I arrived. So
03:38 she left and told them that she was going back to Uyu because she works as an engineer
03:43 in Uyu. So they thought she had come back but they didn't know that she actually came
03:48 to Lagos airport to come and you know, welcome me. So she was so shocked to see her back
03:56 again. Like I thought she said you were in Uyu. That's my mom, she was surprised. So
04:02 you are back again, like I thought she said you were in Uyu. So she was surprised to see
04:08 her again. So they've gone to call my dad. Everyone was just greeting each other, happy
04:15 you know. And here they told my parents that my sister, my big sister, Osmond was coming
04:23 with his friends. So they were all waiting for me. Meanwhile, I was in the car anyway
04:30 and that's my dad. He just arrived from his farm. I was in the car, hiding in the car.
04:36 So let's see, see these two lovebirds, my parents.
