9ja no dey carry last: 5 things only Nigerians including you can do

Nigerians are known for a variety of things but the following 5 things are what they are very good at.
 
Nigerians understand these 5 funny things listed below very well.

1. Flashing: 

Nigerians love to flash. This refers to the act of dialing someone’s number with the intention to cut it off before the person picks or as soon as the person picks. A lot argue that Nigerian women do this more, what do you think, who do it more???

2. Answering Rhetorical Questions: 

A lot of Nigerians are guilty of this. You would most likely find this with Nigerian parents. Like “mom where should I drop this, you would hear: drop it on my head”. Or someone sees you arrive from school but the person still goes on to ask ‘Have you returned from school?’

3. Nigerian time: 

Nigerians enjoy being the last to show up anywhere, even at their own wedding. When you want an event to start by 4pm, you would have to put 12pm so they would arrive by 4pm.

4. Pointing with their mouth or lips: 

Instead of describing in words or point with their fingers, a Nigerian would do it with her lips.

5. No chill: 

Ever been at the market and you really want to buy something then can’t find it but steps into one of the shops and asks where you could get it, but the seller tells you no one sells it in that market because they do not have the item? Or someone instead of telling you simply that they do not know the direction you asked for goes on to tell you a wrong one so you don’t see them as new comers too?

 I find Imelda Marcos story very interesting. Thought of sharing. Enjoy ONE LITTLE GIRL  Once upon a time there was a little girl. She was a beautiful little girl, everyone agreed. She had dark hair, pale skin and almond eyes. And she sang like an angel. Everyone agreed on that too. Until she was 10 our little girl lived in the big city. It was a sprawling, bustling, filthy place. She lived in a hovel. Well, it wasn’t so much a hovel as a rundown garage. And, when the wind blew at night, the doors and shutters creaked and banged and she was very afraid. And every year when the fierce monsoon rains wreaked their vengeance on the earth the floor of the garage flooded and the little girl’s bare feet were cold and wet. One night in a fearsome storm our little girls’ mummy died – “of pneumonia”, they said, but our little girl didn’t understand. And so she and her widowed father and her five brothers and sisters left the garage in the big city and went to live on a tropical ...

How Learning 11 Languages Taught Me 11 Crucial Lessons

How Learning 11 Languages Taught Me 11 Crucial Lessons This article is a wake-up call for all those who dream of becoming multilingual: just do it! Luca Lampariello talks about where he finds the motivation for learning languages, and how he’s learned 11 so far. By Luca Lampariello When people meet someone who speaks many languages fluently, the first reaction is often one of slight bewilderment. Multilingualism is generally considered  cool yet difficult to achieve , especially if second, third and fourth languages are acquired later in life. As an advocate of language learning, I of course agree that it’s cool, but I challenge the assumption that it’s difficult. My name is Luca Lampariello. Here I would like to deviate from the well-trodden route to  how  I learned 11 languages and concentrate on  why  I learned these languages. Seasoned language learners will all tell you that motivation is fundamental, so where can one find this motivation and h...
