Your childhood was indeed memorablegrin
Yea sure. Growing up we use to play football every blessed day with size 3 health double leather then. The small post set with big stones or wood in the ground or even tires was our preferred goal post before the small post with net became made by welders became really popular.

Good ol' days, when the love was actually real..

When Nigeria was still fun, no economic hardship as now..

Where ladies weren't so toxic/woke..

Where men don't poison each other due to hate or envy..

Where social media wasn't there to divide us..

Now, social media; especially WhatsApp status is now where we codedly beef/hate on each other. Same people we couldn't go a day/week without talking to, are now the ones we could go months without hearing from, and still be comfortable/ unbothered..

May God help us retrace our steps back because nothing's cool anymore, from the government down to the masses...


The truth in this post is too bitter. The psych of the average Nigerian is so rotten. Everyone is trying to steal from each other. The little things don’t even matter at all.

Girls believe that their social media presence is their real life presence, they think Instagram makes them Gods and Nigeria fell for the scam. That’s why you’d see empty skull girls as guest of honor for spelling bees.

Most boys don’t reach their potential anymore.

When you post about things that actually carry useful knowledge, they run from it like a plague.

The music is vague and hyped

The comedy is not funny and super hyped

The foods are not the same. There’s this frozen butter that use to take like heaven, not anymore! Pringles doesn’t taste the same. Cornflakes is different, shortbread is different, cheese balls is different. We can’t even afford akara and bread anymore!

I could go on and on

The one I enjoyed the most was the one where there are four players and each have their own monkey post in one of the four sides of the small pitch to defend.

We used to call this 4 post. You're only permitted to touch the ball only when the other opponents have; touching it twice leads to foul
