Memories of a Naija child: Sign Up Here If You Remember by chinesedoll(f): 8:50am On Jul 24, 2008
If you are a Nigerian
ad you were born and brought up outside Naija
then you might not recognise all this things

Saw this, and it actually brought back some good memories
*tears* sniffs anyway
Enjoy


[b] ** You know you grew up in Naija hoodies if u rmbr this**
You’ve drank Malta Before
Uve gotten money from tha adults 4 dancin at a party.
your parents add “O? to tha end of every sentence: Shutup-O! Get me water-O!
You’ve been slapped 4 not greetin someone
You’ve gotten in trouble for giving an elder something wit your left hand
You gotta call all tha older Nigerians u kno uncle or auntie even if they not related! your parents talk HELLA loud on tha phone
There is always rice or fufu in your house
If u find Naira in your wallet once in a while
your parents want to call your name but they call all your siblings first before they get it rite!
A party starts at 6 and u sho up at 10
Uve had a family member stayin ova 4 HELLA long
You always hear your parents say “Ah ah!?
When your parents threaten to send u “back home? when u misbehave
You always have maggi cubes in your house
If you know of anyone (including yourself) that has any of the following names: Ola, Sade, Bola, Tunji, Ngozi, Uche, Folake, Ifeoma, Tolu, Tunde, Obi, Chioma, Chituru, Chinyere, Adaobi, Nkemi, Onyi, Nneka, Bunmi or Fatima
If, names like Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Patience, Peace, Blessing, God's Will or Mercy sound pretty normal to you.
If, rice and stew just isn't the same without plantain (dodo)
If, you know for sure that the Super Eagles are by far the best soccer team in the world.
