NIGERIANS DON'T FORGET


To whom it may concern, 
Whatever you do, make sure nigerians don't tag you with a name. 

If there's one thing I could say emphatically as an average Nigerian, it is simply that; Nigerians don't forget the first thing. Well, sometimes they just don't forget how something made them feel. Or let me just say; they just don't forget anything at all. You think I'm lying? Follow my list

Yakubu Aiyegbeni
At first hearing of the name; Yakubu Aiyegbeni, what comes to your mind? The stupid world cup goal he missed right? I thought so too πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜Ž. 
An average Nigerian football lover will never forget that incident. More than 10years after, people still talk about the goal he missed at the world cup and without kidding, that was the major source of hatred some people harbor against him till tomorrow πŸ˜‚ (even tho we go still ja for the next round even if he had scored that goal sef πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚). If you think I'm lying, just ask you brother about Yakubu Aiyegbeni and listen to him swear for him πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ 
 
Macleans
I bet some people have used the name Macleans so much that they already forgot, they're actually supposed to say Toothpaste, the same way they kept calling all seasoning Maggi πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. I once remembered telling a lady I want to buy seasoning and she responded; awa o ki n ta o (i.e we don't sell it), then I said maggi ni mo mean o (i.e it was maggi I meant o) and she shouted ha maggi ni e npe ni seasoning (so it is maggi you're calling seasoning)... I just couldn't stop laughing πŸ˜‚. So I asked another shop keeper too if they sell Maclean and she replied me; closeup or oral b (lmao πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚  I cannur can abeg😌) 

NEPA
See on this table ehn, na all of us dey there πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. If Nigeria power company like, they should change their name 100 times, na only NEPA we sabi. Are we together? Lol πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ 

Nickname (a guy called Fresher)
So I knew this guy when I was in part one, but then even I know the guy to behave as too much butty (you know whariris πŸ˜‰). So, I wasn't much surprised when I heard him nicknamed "fresher", but where I fear my people was when I saw him recently in part 5, my people lo and behold; they still call this guy fresher. 
Fear Nigerians πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Tobi JΓ²gbΓ³
So ending this with me, when I was a baby (a baby o for that matter 😑😬) my mum said I was nicknamed Tobi jΓ²gbΓ³ (I'll never tell you the meaning, so just forgerrit) by my aunties (maternal). One thing sha led to the others and we never got to see again for more than 20years. So, there was a party recently, and they all came home (typical Nigerian setting πŸ˜‘πŸ˜), so my mom introduced me to one them and you won't believe this aunty legit called me "Tobi Jogbo" again! I hate Nigerians, I'm going to Ghana. 

Siri, play me "I'm walking away" by Craig David. 
Let me go and start learning my Ghanaian accent preperly, charley! I no get time. 

Bonus: secondary school is a crazy place to be as a Nigerian youngster, that's where some of us got that nickname that never wears away for life (you must really be invisible to not have one), and the worst part of it is that; it is always an annoying nickname. Oya gist me about your nickname, let's discuss.
