| Travel / I Fought A Conductor For My N10 Change by Naijasinglegirl: 9:11am On Apr 05, 2016 |
I’m always making jokes about men in suit who get into fights with conductors for their twenty naira change and I never for once thought I would one day make the list. The only difference between me and them is, I was not wearing a suit when mine happened and I fought for something lesser, ten naira change. It was a very sunny afternoon when I flagged a keke from Alaka Estate at Surulere heading towards Ojuelegba. They were two men seated at the back seat and I made the third passenger. Usually, the fare for this distance is N50 but the keke man said N80 and because I saw a troop of men & women walking out from the estate, I didn’t want them to contend my space with me so I got in without arguments. Towards Tejuosho, the keke man said, “I hope say you hold change oh.” I kept mute. I had only a N200 and N1000 note in my bag but I thought N200 was a reasonable denomination. Even if it were not, he should have mentioned it before I got into his keke. The other passengers alighted along the way. When we got to Ojuelegba, I handed the man the N200 and rather than give me my change, he hissed and started driving towards Surulere as though he was oblivious to my presence in the back-seat. I asked if his head was correct and he parked immediately. Then he hissed again, threw a N100 and a N10 at me in the back-seat and got out of the keke. Oga, wey my ten naira change? He eyes turned red as if he washed them with Yoruba stew. He said I dey craze, that he made himself clear before I got inside his keke. Wait! What is ten naira? I know how many times I have written off amount way higher than that to taxi/keke/okada drivers and sellers generally but I can’t stand when people are rude ontop my own money. I’m usually the first to wave my hand and walk away if I see the driver or conductor making efforts to spilt my money into smaller denominations or if he has a look of empathy on his face but not when I was dealing with a mad man. That missing ten naira suddenly felt like N1,000,000. To add insult to injury, he brought out two ten naira notes and said he dared me to collect it from him, that yes, he was going to ‘eat’ my money because he bought his fuel from black market. He walked towards an Iya Basira at the road side and sat down. He was probably a regular of the iya basira cos she served him egusi and eba without questions. All along, I was staring at him with hands on akimbo as he swallowed a ball of eba, one after the other, amazed at how one can be this stupid. Anger had suddenly overwhelmed me. I felt like I was going to run mad if I didn’t give him a piece of mind. I walked up to him and said, “Since N10 is your problem, N10 will always be your problem till you are 80. Amen!” I got him there. Yay! He stood up immediately holding a ball of eba already dunked in soup and started abusing my existence in the typical agbero style. Me, I was just shouting, “Back to sender! Back to sender!! Back to sender!!!” I turned around and noticed some passersby were staring at us. Reality suddenly hit me. There I was, fighting for N10 in ojulegba of all places. If it were the bus stop of Banana Island, I wouldn’t be bothered. But Ojulegba? Ojulegba? Tomorrow fame might meet me from my new novel and the only photos the internet would have of me are the ones taken by passersby on the day I fought at Ojulegba. Devil be gone! I composed myself and walked away. http://www.naijasinglegirl.com/fought-n10-change/ 96 Likes 10 Shares |
| Fashion / 10 Annoying Questions On Natural Hair Nigerians Are Tired Of Hearing by Naijasinglegirl: 9:15am On Apr 02, 2016 |
1 You have not combed it well I hate it when people try to maintain eye contact with me while I am struggling to comb my natural hair. People don’t just get it that no matter how many times I run my comb through my hair, humidity always wins! Shrinkage is inevitable and the tips can never stay straight like relaxed hair. I am tired of having to explain this when people make the statement above 2 Can’t you wear your natural hair out? Often times, my friends would invite me for an impromptu event and when I decline the invite because my weaves or braids are looking old, they’ll ask me to uninstall it immediately and wear my natural hair out. IT’S NOT AS EASY AS THAT!!! Did you book an appointment with my natural hair? You should have submitted your application 4 days after wash day! Natural hair suffers from mood swings. I cannot just wake up one morning and decide to let it fro. It takes a lot of planning that involves my whereabouts for that week, the person I am visiting, the clothes I decide to wear and the weather reports on NTA! 3 Pack it na! This is a sequel to 2. No, it cannot pack into a bun easily because it is not stretched and because it is short and because I have no edge control gel and because the edges won’t stay laid even when I apply gel and because IT HAS REFUSED TO PACK ITSELF INTO A BUN! 4 Okay straighten it. Once, I complained I was having a bad hair day and a friend of mine said, “Let me get my flat iron and straighten it for you.” The previous day I had escorted her to the saloon to get her 6 weeks post relaxed hair straightened. I explained the process of heat application on hers and mine are different. She replied, “Meaning what? Don’t you know my hair is natural too?” Idiot! 5 Why is your own like this? People that don’t understand would just go on Instagram and look at the natural hair of Black Americans and want to call the police to arrest me because my own natural hair get as e be. Do you know their texture? Do you know that their grand mother is Latina and their great grand father is Jamaican? Do you know what is 1a 1b 1c 2a 2b 2c 3a 3b 3c 3d 4a 4b 4c 5a 5b 5c. Sister do you  6 Why can’t you do what they call bantu knots or twist outs? [/b]Oh! Are we going to talk about my failed attempts with bantu knots and co? If I do it and ask you to accompany me somewhere, would you want to associate with me? [b]7 When will you put relaxer? [/b]Hairdressers are most guilty of this annoying question. Each time I visit a new saloon, I am asked this question repeatedly. This is after they handle my hair in a manner intended to hurt my nervous system. 8 [b] Na Wa O. Is it not strong? Yes it is and I have gotten used to swallowing a card of panadol each time I comb it. How is that your problem? I’m also tired of being questioned on my routine. Why do I have to plait it before going to bed? Why does it define gravity? What’s that ugly hair wrap I am wearing? What are all these products? Why do I apply vegetable soup on my hair? 9 What is this style called? Sometimes I do one style I feel is dope on my natural hair and it hurts me when I go out and it is interpreted as another style. After spending twenty hours in front of the mirror to do what they call wash&go, an old friend would now stop me on the road to ask, “So you are now on dreadlocks?” Or is it the time I did chunky twistouts and someone said, “This your puff puff sef.” 10 Put relaxer na. It will return to natural next month THIS IS WHY I KEEP MY NATURAL HAIR PROBLEMS TO MYSELF because this is the solution I am usually offered by my relaxed friends. They don’t understand! Okay when you lost your virginity, did the hymen grow and return to it’s natural state because nobody chuked anything there the following month? http://www.naijasinglegirl.com/10-annoying-advice-get-natural-responses/ 42 Likes 3 Shares |

| Romance / My Experience At A Strip Club In Lagos by Naijasinglegirl: 8:58am On Mar 29, 2016 |
I didn’t wake up one morning and added strip club to my itinerary for the day. It just happened. A friend of mine came by late evening and we were deciding if we should see a movie or just stay back and chat when he said, “Let’s go to a strip club!” I’ve been to a strip club only once in my life and I didn’t spend more than a minute. A friend dared me to follow him and when we got there, I was the one begging to leave. Ever since, I have been curious to know what goes on within a Nigerian strip club. The one I visited last week Thursday was at the mainland. The regular section was kind of rowdy so my friend took me to the VIP section. Immediately we got in, I saw only one girl dressed in skimpy undies, sprawling and grinding the floor alone. Occasionally, she would climb up and slide down the pole. I thought that was all they could offer. After a few minutes, a crazy looking girl replaced her. Then it started to get interesting. She climbed the pole and started twerking on it. Every now and then, she slid down like a palmwine tapper and climbed again as expertly as a monkey. I gasped when she took off her G-string and flung it in on the table. I thought she was wearing another small-letter-g-string beneath only for me to peep closely to see her kini in its full gory. She wore a jewellery there that looked like a tiny bell and each time she twerked, it looked like it rang from left to right. I think I embarrassed my friend cos I was the only one laughing out loud like a village girl. Meanwhile, it was getting hot beside me. Another stripper was giving an angry looking man a lap dance stark naked. Occasionally, he would slap her bum and squeeze her br€a$ts while maintaining a stiff face devoid of excitement! It was as if he was being punished or being forced. His facial expression seemed like he had a bad day at work and he needed to expunge that anger by constantly slapping her bum. Me, I was just looking at his face and thinking of his wife. When he noticed I wouldn’t take my eyes off him, he gave me a very unfriendly stare that forced me to face front. More and more customers started to troop in with different strippers. I was particularly curious on how the strippers got the job and what they do doing the day. I guess the visitors were all frequent visitors to the club because they each had a particular girl they smacked and squeezed freely. The strippers were smoking heavily, some where in a corner adjusting their pant&bra and while others were twerking in front of the pole. The funniest part of my night was when NEPA took light was several seconds and messed up one of them twerking rhythm on the pole. After a while, I started to get bored. The arena now felt like a university female hostel bathroom that played loud music and was open to visits by men. My friend thought it was time we take our leave.
