Lol
My late 100L roommate tormented me with Don Moen gospel songs with this back in 2000.
Other boys in the hostel wer rocking Craig David and dem Sisqo that time grin
It was a rechargeable lantern composed of;
-flourescent tube
-torch (which could blink)
- cassette player
-AM & FM radio
Thing could last several hours back in those days jacking at night in the lecture theatres on campus with no NEPA light.

Rest in Peace Emmanuel.

You forgot the Police Siren sound it has cheesy

That Craig David you mentioned brought back memories for me, I served in year 2000 in one village, it was this radio and one Craig David complete cassette that a friend gave me when leaving for camp that was my companion.

I still know which song will come after which song in that Craig David album grin

LOL. That's not possible. I know what I'm talking about

OK.. If that lantern dates back to 1992 as you stated, that means u have seen the beauty of Technology before some of us.. grin

But I strongly believe that the lantern came to limelight or rampant after year 2000... I am really certain about it

The life we lived then was pleasurable before the indomie generation came up. I feel very sorry for them because they have known no real pleasure.

That Craig David’s album “Born to do it” was arguably the most “abused” album on Nigerian campuses in 2000 grin
I also refused to buy the album but there was literally one playing at every time “T” in boy’s hostel.
I also knew the album by heart as a result
