Lol,could These Be True? Ways Of Differentiating An Ajebota From An Ajepako! by jennifer10066(f): 2:54pm On Jul 04, 2016
There are basically two
classes in Nigeria. It is either
you are an ‘ajebota’ or an
‘ajepako’. The ‘ajebo’
people as Nigerians often say
are the ‘Behind’ ones; this class of people are more
inclined to act the ‘oyinbo’
way. Being wealthy most times make
many people regard some people
as ‘ajebota’ because of the
standard of living they are used to.
For some, education helps them
transform totally and could make people term them ‘ajebo’. Their ways of life many not
conform to that which they grew
up with after attaining a certain
level of education. Technology also
changes the status of some people
and it helps them adjust to the trend of the society. The people regarded to as
‘ajepako’ live ruggedly; they
are able to adjust to any situation
and would survive even under the
hardest conditions. People believe
that those born without a silver spoon fall in this group. Some
people born wealthy could also
show traits of an ‘ajepako’
when they decide to move away
from the family business and strive
for success while being independent. That being established let us look at
the things people do that make
them get termed an ‘ajebota’ or
‘ajepako’ in Nigeria:
1. Having a chauffeur When you have to go to school in a
very beautiful car with you sitting
down at the owner’s corner, you
are definitely an ‘ajebota’. To
accentuate things, the driver opens
the car door for you to step out; you are definitely a ‘Botty’. An ‘ajepako’ would board the
usual ‘danfo’ to school and
return by standing at the back of
the bus because he must have
spent his t-fare in school.
2. Getting kissed on both sides: You are definitely an ‘ajebota’
when your parents kiss you on
both cheeks when you are stepping
out of the house to go see your
friends or when you just returned
from a journey. You know you are an ‘ajepako’
when you can get slapped for
attempting to kiss your mum on the
cheek. To make matters worse, she
may end up swearing for you.
3. When you go on vacations You would know you are an
‘ajebota’ when your parents
can afford to send you outside the
country on vacation and you talk
about travelling to London like you
are going to the next street. You have to be an ‘ajepako’
when your idea of holiday is
staying with your aunt at Ajegunle.
4. Games being played Being an ‘ajebota’ means the
games you play are assorted
games. You would be obsessed
with the thoughts of playing golf
and crickets at expensive places. Your ‘pakoness’ is hardy when
your idea of games is hunting rats
and playing rubber balls.
5. Walking steps If you are a woman and finesse is
engraved in your skin, you may
sashay even when you are walking
on the streets, you could pass for
an ‘ajebota’. But a lady who pays no attention to
her mode of dressing and drags her
feet openly in the street must be an
‘ajepako’. She would go to the
next street tying wrapper.
6. Clothes worn When you are obsessed with
having designer products worn
every now and there, you are an
ajebota. Also, when you check the
label of the clothes before you buy
them, you know this is your class. On the other hand, you know you
are an ‘ajepako’ when the only
time you come close to close that
have ‘Atmosphere’ label is
when you visit your bend down
select centre.
7. Your friends There is no doubt about you being
an ‘ajebota’ when all your
friends are children of governors
and senators in the society. These
are the people you visit and the
type who visit you regularly. You know you are an ‘ajepako’
when the people you move with
are nameless children. Climbing
people’s cashew trees and rolling
car-tyres in the street is all you
ever do.
8. House maids When you have a lot of maids in the
house who see to your needs, you
are an ‘ajebota’. You may not
even wash plates after you eat as
they would clear the table for you.
You must be an ‘ajepako’ when you are not sure what dinner is and
you eat just what you see.
9. When you can talk back at
your parents You are an ‘ajebota’ when you
can ask your parents questions that
query their sanity when they act
out of line. You may also be at
liberty to tell them not to be silly.
You know you are an ‘ajepako’ when you talk back at your mum
and she blames your stupidity on
your father’s family members.
10. Use of washing machine You may pass for an ‘ajebota’
when your clothes are washed
with washing machine and you
never have to worry about ironing
them yourself. You are an
‘ajepako’ when you wash your clothes yourself and use soda to do
so. You also dry out the clothes on
grasses and worry about it being
stolen by madmen in the street. ;DThere are basically two
