What a myopic and foolish conclusion from you. What has the action of your friend's older brother got to do with the hopelessness of the country. Like beget like, if your friend's older brother could do what you described, it only shows the type of people you attract and in same analysis the type of person you are.

Nigeria has millions of issues but your story is not good enough to conclude there is no hope for the country. Meanwhile, Nigeria is made up of Nigerians which you are part. If your friend couldn't do anything to resolve this situation, my humble conclusion is that its you, your friend and the older brother that seems to be hopeless in this situation.

Chillisauce: Your uncle should be careful now If he eventually gets the phone, since this issue is up, they may slap the phone out from him later. Berra get your old uncle a nokiatorch.

Bellong is right, change your topic to something else. He doesn't like when you say crap about his country. He never give up on the country.

rockbase360: Okay this is a story I just had to share with Nairalanders. I sent one of my uncle's a brand new Q10 BLACKBERRY through a friend of mine that visited Nigeria in the summer. He only spent 2 days in Lagos, so he left the phone for his older brother to "hold" pending "pick-up" by my uncle. I called my uncle 2 weeks ago and he told me "something" am still yet to "digest" or even "decipher". The so-called "older brother" told my uncle that he activated the phone and is now using it and that he feels like my uncle is too old to use the phone( I am sure you re-read that last sentence again). I called my friend and told him what my uncle told me. Like me, he couldn't believe it. I called this older brother and he told me the same thing, only this time, offering to buy my uncle a Samsung phone."At least the old man can understand how to take use dat one, I even use 10k ACTIVATE this phone self ".....he said.

plaetton: It seems that we have lost our sense of common decency. I am more shocked that people are attacking and questioning the op, rather than express shock at the level of moral depravity showcased on this piece.

Are we devolving back into wild animals? Even chimpanzies in the wild have a more orderly and harmonious social order than the crop of so-called humans who inhabit Nigeria today.
Anyone is free to bury their head in the sand like an ostrich, but the truth is the truth.

Guy, d'you know how annoying it is for us readers to read a half completed story?

Abeg finish the tale! So what happened next? Did you organise Area boys to grab the phone from the thief? Was the thief beaten up, poured petrol upon and set alight? (Jungle Justice) Or did your uncle go to court and bribed a few hands along the way to get 'justice'?

Abeg come back here and finish up, jare!
