Driving to work this morning, I noticed that many drivers of vehicles, I drove past or that drove past me, adorned their dashboards with horse whips of various designs and colours.These whips were conspicuously displayed and it got me wondering their purpose. Are the meant to be used to flog other adults or are they meant to flog fellow adult drivers?
I think this is a carry over of the force mentality of the military era or what say you?

@bolded
Simple!

Nigerians behave like animals. Both the 'flogger' and the 'floggee' are animals.

Those who display military belts are the confirmed animals.

Thank God Buhari turned them down. Peace corp sef for dey hang their belt for dashboard.

It is an hausa-fulani trend. The thing most southerners dont realise is that our police, army, politicians, civil servants etc have unknowingly been overwhemly influenced by hausa-fulani cattle mentality. That is why a military man lacks empathy, a policeman or civil servant will stress u to death when u enter his trap.

Now compare that to banks and private sector run mostly by southerners. There is a much greater level of proffessionalism in the south-dominated private sector.

We are culturally being colonised by hausa...otherwise wat is the rationale of keeping a pain-inflicting object like horsewhipp in ur car.

Nigerians (due to legacies of the hausa-dominated military regimes) now lack empathy.

But this is a miracle, kind of. This thread has been created since 2013 with three or so comments and just seeing FP now. Very serious.

As silly as you sound . I schooled four years in core north and I never for once see a Hausa man put a whip in his car . This trend is common in Lagos and other southern parts where traffic is overbearing

Its a sign of intolerance ,but then sharing the roads with road traffic illiterates,eg ,fulani,hausa people ,truckpusher,motorcyclist,commercial bus drivers ,
going by traffic standard,they will be at traffic wrong and flexing muscle ,meets with many here in bariga ,lagos ,and will be ready to fight,knowing that his fellow cow brethren will stop by to his defense


I've been to Nigeria enough to know that illiteracy knows no ethnic groups. I go to banks and the level.of customer service there is shambolic it's ridiculous.

I'm certain if you can come to type something like this on a public platform you most certainly are an illiterate

It's there on one car in our house. The last time it was used I heard my uncle whipped one keke man that hit his car. The guy hit my uncle's car and wanted to flex on top him again. My uncle just came out and started whipping the idiot.

Re: Why Do Some People Adorn Their Dashboards With Horse Whips? by seguno2: 8:51am On Mar 06, 2018
Because they are horses themselves and need to be whipped into orderliness.
Are we no longer in an animal republic where snakes and monkeys are swallowing money upandan

Maybe those who have the horsewhips are themselves unable to shake off their slave mentality

I am buying the moment I spot it. I have been planning to get two but my movements have not been through places I could get it.
For me, it is for stupid bike men.

Is the real idiot not your uncle who cannot find civil ways to resolve the issue, including the extreme measure of taking the keke man to court or lead others to regulate and train the keke men?
How much regulation do you think there is for the keke men

When Auto manufacturers would be bragging about their car's horsepower, the whip is meant to make the car move faster, the same way it's used on a horse.

Re: Why Do Some People Adorn Their Dashboards With Horse Whips? by Fistop: 9:54am On Mar 06, 2018
I'm not a Military personnel but I always put horsewhip on my dashboard because of the reckless commercial bus drivers, keke marwa and bike riders we have around. I also notice that once they see such horsewhips, they tend to drive more carefully beside or around you.
