ThatFairGuy:Wrong. Grasshoppers have different colours, not only green. Maybe you attended one of those secondary schools which didn't have football field lol. We killed grasshoppers taya in those days. We also dug cricket holes underneath the rocks and weeds. It's their noise that usually attracted us, especially in the night. This one posted by the OP is a grasshopper not cricket. You can argue it till eternity. For the umpteenth time, I'm not only Edo, im also yoruba by birth . I stand a better chance in both states to be whoever I want to be , politically. If tinubu and femi hamzat could become governor and deputy governor,then I'm more than qualified as a Lagosian. Let's leave all the tribal argument here for now my Friend. |

Limassol: My brother! I grew up in Kano, you? They had a season then when everywhere became invaded with them....infact, we were always catching them inside "leather" with the hope of keeping them as pets until they suffocateand die. They were so much in varying colours and sizes! How time flies . |

ThatFairGuy: Lol! That’s grasshopper. Crickets are different. They make noise from holes in our village football fields and in the nights when they flap their wings. In our primary school days, we would use fresh leaves to lure them from their holes and get the big ones out. 1 Like |
