It doesn't just rain but it pours in calabar. Landlord doesn't want to keep photocopying stuff.

About the pouring I totally agree with you. Was there like 2years ago. Was stuck in the hotel most of the time. Rain in calabar is something else. Funny thing is I don't think it floods the place! I mean it stops raining after several hours and the roads are just wet. Or was it just the area I stayed?

Classic lol. Wonder wen DISCOs will start thinking of going full Prepaid using smart cards instead of this archaic method.

While walking down a street just beside CRUTECH, calabar, I spotted these funny displays. When I got closer, I discovered that the bottle was used to house a PHCN bill payment slip. It was funny, but then I found myself wondering: is this how we now roll?

According to the OP, the question is, is this how we roll? Which aslo means, is this how and where our civilization have landed us even in this 21st century?

We need to adopt a more civilize method of doing things than doing it the old usual ways.

We cannot expect to experience change when we decide to do things the same old and antiquated ways and still expect to be relevant in the face of advancement.

What happen with he PHCN officials arming themselves with the list or database of customers that are yet to pay up their bills after a particular deadline given, rather than demanding to see physical paper. There is nothing normal in abnormalcy.

We dont need to put our bills in plastic bottles just to proove our innocence. It does not make any sense. It is an eyesore and does not tell any good of our system.

MARKone:


Bros rain and sun done dey damage Nepa bills wey dey exposed tey tey. Putting PHCN bills inside plastic bottles, don dey tey tey also, this is a way of protecting the bills and PHCN official no go dey disturb you, by banging at your gate and asking for your bill, that is for the courteous ones though. So it is not how they roll now, it is how the roll tey tey.

Exactly, this has been in practice for long even in Lagos.

Re: A Funny Way To Notifying PHCN Of Bill Payment (pictures) by onetoone: 9:27pm On Oct 01, 2015
The reason for this is DAT phcn cut the light of many houses during the day when people are at work,with this method they can check if the house is owing or not even if nobody is at home,this method is common in many state including boundaries town between Ogun and Lagos state

I understand ur point of view. I also believe u live in calabar. With d number of insane beings here don't u think it's rather too risky of a job to leave ur valuables outside... for am sure it's quite easy for a mad person to retrieve d entire bottle with impunity. There should b a better way, bro
I c notn wrong wit it, most times these phcn guys diconnect ones power despite nt meeting anyone @ d residence.so if its an apartment whr any1 is hardly around during d day dt these guys mostly come around,then its safe 2 leave a photocopy of ur evidence of payment whr rain nor sun wld destroy it rather dan come home @ nyt after d days stressful job only 2 find ur apartmt disconnectd
