Culture › 8 Funny Signs You Have Become A Typical Nigerian Woman by McBrooklyn(op): 12:45pm On Apr 19, 2016
Basically, Nigerian women have interesting qualities. Firstly, they know all the tricks in the world to make you do their bidding and then they could turn on their drama skills and use some fast lines on you too.
Growing up with many Nigerian women around could make you possess one or two of their traits and start to act like them yourself. There are certain qualities that Nigerian women exhibit; and you know for sure that you have been transformed into one when you start doing the following:

1. When you bargain in the market till you are insulted
Don’t bother paying, come and steal it
Have you tried going to the market with a Nigerian woman? It even becomes more dramatic if she is a mother as she would want to cut down her budget by all means to save money.
Nigerian women have the habit of bargaining in the market till market sellers insult them and ask them to take the wares without paying. When you start to do this, just know you are gradually transforming into a typical Nigerian woman.

2. When you can talk with your eyes
Most Nigerian women expect their children to understand body signs and languages. Your mother could hit you for failing to understand some sign she gave you with her eyes.
Overtime, these signs become a part of the children too. When you start to use your eyes to tell someone to pick up money from the floor, then you have succeeded in becoming a typical Nigerian woman.

3. When you cannot do little chores by yourself
Nigeria is blessed with a lot of hardworking women. Most of these women display this all the time and train their children to do likewise. However, they love being pesky for no reason.
You know you have become a typical Nigerian woman when you start to ask your children to get you an object you could get for yourself. And worse still, when you start to use your mouth to point out directions.

4. When you make retorts without thinking them through
Sorry for yourself!
Most Nigerian women seem to have ready-made answers. Try not to offend any of them or risk being compared to an object you despise.
In other cases, they show their frustration by making statements that showcase their efforts. When a child says he/she is hungry, they retort by saying ‘Come and eat me.’

5. When you cannot accept simple apology
To err is human and to forgive is divine, they say; offending a Nigerian could feel like hell. Nigerian women could be very difficult at times. You know you have been initiated when someone tells you sorry and you cannot help saying‘Sorry for yourself.’

6. When you do not understand the term picnic anymore
All these for a picnic?
This is noticeable when you intend going for a picnic and you pack all the things you could think of. You know you are a typical Nigerian woman when you pack wrappers and many things that would be considered inappropriate. This attitude extends into you packing things needed for a year for a journey that would last a week.

7. When you become judgmental
Nigerian women see themselves as women who are chastised. They understand the word decency and try being moderate in everything they do. You know you have transitioned into a typical Nigerian woman when you cannot help opening your mouth when you see a girl walking half naked.

8. I drop my pen here, Feel free to add your's cool

Family › 7 Names You Don't Want To Give Your Child In Nigeria by McBrooklyn(op): 3:47pm On Apr 18, 2016
Firstly, this is Nigeria and there is the need to carefully review the kind of names we give our children. We are a nation with a deep rooted belief for culture and value. While many people prefer to give their children foreign names, many people do not want to lose touch with the culture we have tried to preserve for years.
That being said, there are some indigenous names you dare not name your child in this present age and day. Not only are these names bastardized, they have become a subject of ridicule amongst people. Some names in Nigeria depict stupidity and go on to portray the bearers of such names as people who are not smart and are naturally stupid.
It should be known that the names you give a child go a long way in that child’s future. A child named after wealth could become immensely rich people would start to marvel at his or her success. Give a child a name that means bitterness and you would be surprised to see that child goes through trials and tribulations all through his life.
Without wasting much time, check out some of the names you may not want to name a child in Nigeria:

1. Akpos
Please if your wife is expecting a child, do not include Akpos when you are compiling names to give that child. Akpos have become the joke of the century in Nigeria and is being used wildly in the entertainment world.
People who bear this name are so dumb they could hardly make sentences that are filled with good points. This character may stick to your unborn child as he may never be taken serious.

2. Sule
This name has Islamic background. Many Nigerians now use it when they want to mock people. A person being called Sule may not necessarily have that as his original name but then it means the person is not smart or intelligent.
Calling a person that is aimed at making him or her know he is acting stupid or actually stupid. If you go on naming your child that, don’t say we did not warn you.

3. Alice
This is the name most maids bear in Nigeria. We are sorry if that is your name but then, we are sure you would not want to name your child that too. Moreover, the name is becoming archaic so why bother naming your daughter that? Or do you want your child to become somebody’s maid in the nearest future?

4. Ekaette
This is a Calabar name and if you are familiar with people from this part of Nigeria, you would know they are wonderful cooks. There is really no problem giving your daughter this name if you have dreams of her becoming a cook.
Most of the girls portrayed as Ekaette are not just good in the kitchen; they have an added advantage when it comes to bedroom skills if you know what we mean.

5. Muri
This is a bit sad as we have a hero with the name Muritala. Yes we know people are trying to make the name sound more ‘Behind’ by coming up with ‘funkified’ versions of it. But forget that, Muri would always be Muri in Nigeria. And you definitely do not want to be called that or make an innocent child go through the agony of being mocked.

6. Dejo
This is a popular character in the Yoruba film industry but you do not want to have a child named that. Like all the other names mentioned here, this name has a meaning and it is rather unfortunate that the beauty of this name is being replaced with chronic stupidity.
Call your son Dejo and watch people add ‘Tufulu’ as the suffix. grin

7. Okoro
This is an Igbo name but people generally believe that a person called this has to be bald or someone with receding hairline. Why do you want your child a name like that? But then, you could ignore this and wake up to see your hairy child bald. Please do not go challenge your mother in-law abeg oh! grin

I drop my pen here, you can also add your's
