Kachisbarbie: Illiteracy plays a vital role in people's lack of interest in sending sms. Social media have/has unraveled those who can't read and write in our society today I prefer sms to calls! |

I really don't text anymore.. neither do I engage in long chats, I prefer talking on the phone. I dont dial a number more than twice either. I expect everyone to return any missed call on their phones esp from known persons...Life is simple! |

EgunMogaji: Are you from France or Iceland? Over here in Nigeria, it is not our culture to leave voice mails. The reason is because - It is not our culture. Finish. Deal with it and be happy. |

Op I tell you really. Not only being busy to pick calls, but sometimes you are stressed and you feel it's stressing you more to talk on phone. At this time only text is what you want! |

asuustrike2009:i agree with your call aspect but I don't think sms was made for the handicapped as stated. Sms speaks alot. There are things u can't say directly to some people when u call but will better be explained via sms. There are people that would never take your call not because they don't wanna take it but because they are busy. or only take calls of those they know. I believe you have met some top personality that wil tell you, don't call please, just send a text. They have too many things running at a time but with the sms there, they can always get back when free. |

from my survey 80% of those saying they prefer textmsg than call are economising there airtime, (u spend I spend) and 50% of those guys study economics my cousin who study econs will say why buying ragolis water for 150 whn u can buy 30 pure water and put inside the ragolis bottle, that's to say u are buying the empty ragolis bottle for 120 and the water for 30 bt we all know that both water are nt of the same quality |

Just how many Nigerians read their text messages? In cases of emergency, u use text messaging, u r on ur own. In the western society, yes text message can work but not here in naija. U go old. |

Kachisbarbie:I don't know about girls but most men i know will still prefer to call more than 20 times than to text their fellow man. One of my close pal frowns at the idea of me texting him because he believes texting is reserved solely for his girlfriend and girlfriends. For some men is all about masculinity. Sisters,lovers and girls who are friends send more text to each other in a month than most brothers or a group of homeboys will do in a year. Texting has been romanticised beyond the extent of it being seen as something that is specifically used by LOVERS,Boy lovers or two female BFF. It also appears informal and less official for two people working in the same company. You don't seal a deal with a text or reach out to an important figure with a text message. Mails or better yet a BBM message appears more official than a text. Due to it being somehow cheap Nigerians who take everything serious will always not take you serious if you try to pass an important info through a text instead of a call. The length of the info is also a problem.....na only things like figures or person death you fit send through a text which involves socially accepted abbreviations of some English words which most people can't decode or write with so to avoid confusion SMS is seldom used. Most people also believe you have to actually be more than a colleague or acquaintance to actually text them. A gossip is more secure when passed through a call than a text. Some folks feel it takes much longer to compose a text so they just keep calling till their calls gets picked saving them energy and time. More and more messages will always get ignored when delivered because you will waste half of your day doing nothing if you choose to check every messges wey dey enter your phone.....our message box nowadays na MTN,GLO,AIRTEL and Etisalat advert screen so the chances of you checking the message is quite thin. 1 Like |
