sharp man: One needs to be careful at events these days.

I was at AY live last easter Sunday. The show had ended, I put my phone in my pocket and walked out of the hall.

I put my hand back in my pocket to pick my phone but did not feel anything.

It dawned on me that my pocket has been picked, in the space of 60 seconds. I smiled and said to myself, them don outsmart me for Lagos.

bet your name na sharp man na how manage why you no con apply am to lagos,eko,ilu ogbon

ibiso1986: Its ok to be vigilant but some nigerians go to the extent of blaming the innocent.. Here's my story... This happened at Garison in Port harcourt. An
elderly man(in his 50's) accused me of being a
pickpocket in front of a massive crowd
.It happened around 6pm at Garison busstop..(PH)
They were so many people waiting to board
either a taxi or a bus heading towards rumola..
So once a car stops, people tend to drag or
push each other just to enter any commercial
vehicle.. I waited for a car close to 30 minutes
and decided to do the dragging game. A car
came and I was trying to struggle close to d
back door, then I mistakenly touched one
elderly man(who was also struggling to enter)
by his back(close to his pocket area and not
inside his pocket).. It was a mistake cos we
were all pushing and dragging with our hands..
The guy shouted that I was a theif.. That he
will slap me(see me, see wahala).. Everybody
(close to a 100) focused on the scene.. I
shouted back and explained to him.. The guy
told me to shut up.. I dragged and explained
even to others.. But the crowd seemed to
believe the man(I even heard a lady saying na
so dem go dey dress well dey thief). Can u
imagine the embarrassment.. One of the
agberos wanted to bring out tyre.. But another
agbero stopped him and told me to leave the
man.. He probably saved me. Cos I think I
would have been brutally injured or killed if it
were to be some other places in nigeria(don't
want to mention names).. The man was still
shouting and I shouted back while explaining..
He later boarded a vehicle and I left the scene.
Majority of d crowd started avoiding me after
my explanation.. How can I be a pickpocket
when I'm a graduate. Its so sad.. I JUST DONT
KNOW WHY MOST NIGERIANS ARE NAÏVE AND
SO QUICK TO BELIEVE. So please, if u are
stocked in a bus stop
, be careful how u place ur hand when
dragging with people just to enter a bus or taxi
cos someone might wrongly accuse you..
THAT'S THE MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT IN
MY LIFE..

Sorry for what happened. Never even blame the people u suspected. It could be the ones beside you looking good because no waiter or the cameramen could be so bold to do that. It could be a well dress lady or guy beside you that took the bag. When you are in a public place, never trust anybody.

slimyem: Kulyie, warris dis? Did someone die?

This lady and the woman who left her child on the chair to dance were careless!. Simple. They have learnt and it shouldn't happen again!
How else should I sympathise and emphatise abi you nor see where I tell am sorry?

slimyem slimyem slimyem how many times did i call you,take heed lest you fall.let not those who think rely on their understanding lest dey fal,take heed

[quote author=Amelian]


You can say that again.....only a dumbo leaves her bag / purse/ phones in any function or church service. Always carry a portable handbag, like your second skin to any occasion, even if its just to shake d hands of d celebrant or even when paying offerings or tithes @ altar, except a trusted person is watching d bag for u..sorry op...wise up, next time.[/quote)una own 2 much,must u insult her?haba

Yes one should be very careful at weddings and take extra precautions to be safe.

Take care [url]toofin.org[/url]

Who takes an Ipad to such events?

omoikhefue:


so you are the well brought real Lagosian who has been battered, trampled upon, broken and exploited by the hardship of the city such that your conscience's death and you live ur everyday life in vengence? or you are the well brought lagosian who lives in constant fear of the unknown, chopping and cleaning mouth as well as suffering and smiling? or the well brought real lagosian who has been robbed of your basic human rights and have willfully accepted it as a way of life?... sorry to burst your bubble i was not brought up in that manner and i refuse to adopt such as a norm

unfortunately for all you holier than thou people when you eventually fall, you come crashing so hard scattering like pack of cards and would be too shame faced to share your predicament but would rather dwell in your self afflicted misery. I am human therefore not perfect, not only do i make mistakes, i acknowledge my wrongs and learn from it.

MEEEEN, I'm in love with this babe!

OP, I feel u jare.
My hubby's BB was stolen on our wedding day. We just came from the registry and were at d venue of the reception. He was still in the car and just stepped out to greet someone. Left his phone on the back seat of the car. After exchanging greetings with d guest, he reached into the car to get his phone, oh boy phone don waka ooo! We tried calling but the sharp thief don off d phone oo! Terrible thing to do to a man on his wedding day.

@Post

I am sorry you lost so many items. Please never leave any of your belongings unattended when you are in a public place. Even if you are going to be away for 2 minutes.

This is hilarious! My stomach is hurting from laughing.

lekkie073: u mean u left ur purse in order to go wrestle for bouquet?
clapu for yasefu

You are wicked in a funny way. Can't stop listening

The one I witnessed was that a young man pretended to be helping in sharing of bottle water in the wedding hall and used that opportunity to ask guests wether they needed change to use in spraying the celebrants .guests obliged only for the guy to disappear after collecting almost 20k

omoikhefue: Im hurting so much on the inside and decided to write who knows I just might heal …

It was a wet Thursday 11th July and I was excited so much so that i couldn't wait to leave the office and most importantly rock my asoebi (it was my first velvet ever and i loved the combination) Deborah Lawson Event place omole was the venue and my beautiful friend from camp was the bride. she's a rare one I must say, down to earth and extremely cheerful you can almost refer to her as a razz yoruba girl so you imagine the shock when I discovered she was actually a foreign student: made me appreciate her even more.

I got to the venue at about 3pm and was settled in no time. My bride was all smiles, everything was going perfectly well Lolo 1 from Wazobia fm was cranking us up, for the first time in a very long time I snapped the finest pix ever without much gloss and editing... everything going smoothly till it was time for single ladies and the bouquet catching. I honestly do not partake in the whole single ladies and bouquet campaign but lolo won’t let us be, at some point the bride had to call us out. Purse on my chair and my offfice bag wedging it, off we went dragging ourselves along the whole episode didn’t last upto 2mins.

I got back to my seat and my office bag was on the floor with my purse nowhere in sight. The purse was specially made by my mum so there’s no replica of it out there. At first I thought it was some kinda expensive joke but it the reality of it dawned on me in no time. I was raged. I have never being so confused I pulled the table cloth hoping to finding it under the table no sight of it; I asked everyone around me rather they answered me with even more questios. it was just too good to be true... I was sure I was gonna faint so I off my shoes to get a grip of myself (I had my ipad3 in that purse, in my wallet were 3atm card, my driver's licence, my HMO cards, my Unilag ID card I refused submitting in exchange for my certificate, my passports photos(right from when I cut my hair, did dreads, dyed my hair you name it, my money!! I made a withdrawal of 10k with intent to cab home, the beautiful pix I snapped at the reception hoping to give my mum, my mobile phone...) everyone's talking at the same time "who could have done this? Where did you leave this bag? Are you sure you didn’t drop it somewhere? what was inside? on and on

Words fail to describe the trauma I went through, I felt so much pain, anger, bitterness and resentment all at once and finally the tears came flooding down my cheeks (last I cried so hard was when I lost a close friend at Unilag). All at once, everybody became a suspect. I suddenly became stranded and desperate for help
In all it’s a bitter pill I had to swallow and I learnt my lesson the hard way, its so unfortunate you no longer know who truly is an invited guest. I suspect and still suspect the caterers and cameramen but the deeds been done already. I love attending weddings but I can certainly tell you that crave just died a most painful death … That’s how they began making donations for my transport I cried all the way to festac could not deal with the situation at all.

Experience is not the best teacher so learn from mine; let me not bore you with the whole police report that’s another ache on its own. In all Im grateful and expectant for even better things.

Cheers!

Sorry dear, but you made a very big mistake...leaving your bag and going to catch the bonquet without taking it with you...It was quite silly and a stupid mistake on your part! In weddings, even if you are bending down to pick something on the floor, you hold your bad tight around your arms...So sorry, and I really mean that I feel your loss!

Nomski0:
Sexymoma where you dey since na?

Sexymoma has been busy protecting Slimyem from Uncle Obowunmi. Hmmm "Obowunmi", one needs to be protected from uncle oo .. cos dat name alone is FIRE

DICKtator:

After you were inebriated? You mean to tell fellow NLrs that you didn't spray that ish on some hungry-a.s.re nappy b.itches?
Blame it on the alco........

I was drunk... wasted, but babes, HELL NO.

so sorry for your experience dear... but it aint the worst ive seen.......
i was at a wedding and it happen to be my close friends.. story short the chief brides maid dropped the money bag on the stage where the bride and groom sat and went down to catch the bouquet after which the money bag vanished
i was so sad cos i didnt know they have become so heartless as to rob even the couples.
The very worst was that the bag contained cheques from pple and envelope with names of pple who blessed the bride and groom with money but will never get a thank you afterwards. NEVER BE CARRIED AWAY IN A WEDDING OR PARTY COS THEY ARE THERE WATCHING!!!!!

even in church,i carry my bag along wit me to d altar during offerin.sowi 4 ur loss.

SELFWORTH:

This is hilarious! My stomach is hurting from laughing.

my dear, no be joke matter oh.. Na true fact be dis oh

kulyie: Haba show some empathy na.she may not be from lagos.I have been a victim so I share in her pains.I know where she is comming.even if no nairalander can replace the stolen items for her at least we can sympathize and empathize with her.at least I have gone to a wedding where a mother left her one year old son on the chair to go and dance and spray money,before she came back to her sit,her baby was gone.we helped her search for her baby,but we tried in vain.I wish I could replace her son for her but I couldn't,the least I could do was give her 5k.I know that money can't replace her kidnapped son but it can at least take her home.please let's try and show love to people we can if it is within our means to.its not nice mocking someone or making a joke out of someone in pain,its not fair.I wonder why nigerians are like this be your brothers keeper remains only in the bible,many nigerians don't apply it to their dealings with people they relate with or work with.very pathetic

she maybe 4rm lagos because she attended unilag

nah today... you just go to the airport and see well-dressed thieves pretending to be fellow travelers but watching your bag and phones like hawks. My sister's blackberry was stolen two years ago at MMIA. My mum has lost 3 blackberries to pick-pockets (the first two at weddings and the third at church). She stopped buying blackberries after that and now uses a Samsung Galaxy. I am waiting to see how long that one lasts.

yuzedo:

Be nice! Agbero Lagos babe!

Lobaton!!!

@OP It's a lesson 4 you, trust nobody. People dey always dey ready to move anything, It might even be ladies.

Op, pele. Mine was in 2011, september 14 in Ibadan. Cant forget that day in a hurry. It was in church o. Had my laptop, atms, dig cam, cash, boooks, money all in my back pack. Service was over and had an assignment to do so because of power I decided to stay back. Felt the need to pee and dashed off in less than two mins. Came back to see my bag missing. Felt someone was playing somw huge pranks. I left my key on the bag and found it on the pew. If not for that, I would have convinced myself I did not come with the bag. Almost ran mad.... till today no sight of any content of the bag.


You cant be too careful. Just watch and pray. Took me a while to recover.
