So I was reminiscing on how people have had to suffer discomfort and delay due to dishonesty and lies from folks from these professions... (Not like they all lie o, but the probability is on the high)

They have different names for it, some are: Discretion, Business tactics, Wisdom, "Okpolo", No. 6 etc.

Someone once asked Abraham Lincoln, "How many legs will a dog have if the tail were to be a leg?"
His response was 4. His tail will never be a leg. Call a spade a spade and not an implement of farming!

My list of TOP Seven Lying Professions beginning from the rear are:



7: Transporters:

These involves conductors and drivers. Just today I almost went a wrong direction because the conductor just wanted me to fill his seat, even after I told him where I was heading! Thank God, I asked a passenger who screamed that I was going opposite and the fare wasn't small.



6. Mechanics

Some of our "car experts" can lie o! They'll tell you to come carry your motor that they're almost through only to go and find out nothing has been done. You go buy unnecessary parts tire because of their plot to make money out of you! Lies you don't have to tell...




5. Police

The highest bidder gets their attention. Especially in that their office, you better not argue with them. Police can paint blue as red. They're still your friends though



4. Business People

You will hear them say, "Na only #10 I dey gain"...Iffa hear! Some of them will forge unnecessary lies just to get you to buy their goods. You know the girl is not too fine, "Yet you'll say, Fine girl, come buy na..." ... Markets like, Alaba, Aba, Ariaria...You must be smart ...Those guys will load you with lies until you buy a fake product...then come back come change am na ...For where? Dem go deny you! Don't pray to be in such situation...



3. Tailors

Tailors sha! I no no wetin I wan call them o...
They will tell you Come Tomorrow, by 5PM! Hmm! Go by 6PM, your material still dey for ground... Lol... Some are good but some, when you give them material, just stay there until they start sewing o and get to some extent, otherwise na sorry get you . You get wedding on Saturday, you planned to cloth the cloth on Friday, you may be disappointed- Follow him/ her up from Monday! No be dia fault sha, dem too get plenty work!



2. Lawyers

You may not have been made to suffer unnecessary allegation because a lawyer stood against the truth he is meant to defend but some have...And it's wicked! I know they do it legally but it's still a lie. The bad part is, They'll put it so nicely even when they know it's a lie! The No. 1 on this list have some of them to cover up for their lies, no surprise most of them later delve into Politics...this takes us to the No.1...



1. Politicians

These are the kings of Lies...
Read this story...A certain man went to heaven, he saw a fan rolling so slowly, he asked why, The angels told him "the fans roll fast depending on the number of lies you've told. The slow one was that of Mother Theresa..." (To cut it short) he saw a room filled with industrial fans blowing everywhere (that's where the angels go to rest and jist), he asked why the fans were so fast, He was told that room solely belongs to politicians!

These folks have Masters in Lying. Believe them at your own peril! .
It's almost impossible to find a truthful one! PDP, APC or Others? All are same!



This is my List!

You can add yours...
