20 GOLDEN RULES FOR VISITATION.

1. Always call before visiting.

2. Kindly remove your shoes before entering ones house, you don't clean it.

3. If you're from the rural area, kindly carry some chicken, fish, beans or other produce. Cost of living is high. cheesy

4. If in the same city, try visiting after meal times, observe family budget.

5. If whoever you want visit isn't in, go back..stop entertaining the spouse or the maid. grin

6. If you must go for a long call, kindly flush and leave the loo as clean as u found it.

7. Visit on your own, don't carry groups to someone's house.

8. Take your complicated nonsense far away..I don't eat red fish, I'm allergic to starch etc. No one forced you here.

9. If you're an overnight guest...u must bathe.

10. If you have a running stomach..stay in your house.

11. Cease all stupid questions....have you completed mortgage, is that your landlord, how much was this carpet?

12. When serving food do not overload, you're not the only hungry soul.

13. Don't confuse the household claiming you're full and satisfied and can only taste a bit....and end up tasting four full bowls.

14. As much as possible invite your host to your home as well.

15. Don't start haggling for the remote with your hosts kids. That's their home.

16. If your host assists u with an umbrella, raincoat or flashlight..kindly return promptly with gratitude. Do not keep.

17. When visiting a household with kids. Kindly carry for them some biscuits, sweets etc. These are proper manners.

18. If you do breakfast with your host, try your utmost best not to do lunch,as well. They don't offer food relief.

19. If you're staying overnight, you don't have to embarrass everyone by washing your underwear and hanging it like a flag in awkward places...simply Rewind it until you get to your home.

20. Ensure that you help around. Don't wait for everything to be done for u.

21. Avoid this habits of changing radio or TV stations like you are at your place..... Be comfortable with whatever the host is watching or listening to...

Before visiting a fellow Nigerian, especially overseas, find out what their cultural rules are concerning visitation. And much better not to go alone.

In parts of Nigeria, I was told (I don't know if it's true) when you visit someone, the standard greeting is "My enemy is here, where is my weapon?", spoken in the host's own dialect to the visitor who imagines the host is welcoming him or her.

Not every guest would read such, some might not even notice.

Potential guests should familiarize themselves with the culture of whoever they want to visit, so you don't possibly make cultural faux pass.

Just because I posted on your thread doesn't mean you need to get paranoid.

Next time, have someone else open the topic or use a different id.

You did go to my facebook page though, and I did not complain about that. undecided

Don't insult me please, moreso I don't know you.

Perhaps you should reveal your previous ids so we can know if you're someone I have insulted before in the distant past.

Focus on the topic, do not derail the thread.

You people are too quick to jump on bandwagons, very bad taste especially given what is happening in South Africa right now.

Open a separate thread for whatever you are discussing.

I don't like when you people just fixate on me anyhow, it's so annoying.

Moderator, lock the thread please if these folks persist.

This list had me smiling from start to finish. I like it and your username too.

A printed copy of these rules, strategically placed in your living room, might help with terrible guests.

Let it be the first thing people see when they walk into your home. cheesy


I am happy the list made you smile.

Pasting it in strategic places at home wouldn't be a bad idea.
