Why Do We Say "you Made It To The New Year"? by larimo(m): 10:49am On Jan 04, 2010
Fellow Nairalanders,

Can someone help me understand why Nigerian say this - "You made it to the New Year" or "Thank God you made it to 2010".

I see it as pple saying thank God you are alive to see the New Year ( i may be wrong). Someone who died in July is no different from another who died in December, abi? Abi na becos of the so-called 'ember' months threats before New Year?!?

Your views please,
