i wish nigeria would play everyday!

.......you do it right NOW before the finals, because just like you left your new year’s resolutions in january—your country might have left their ball sense in this last match. 👍🏽

the only time you’d ever catch Nigerians smiling is the second they receive a monthly allowance or when the Nigerian team wins.

notice the “second” because after that “second” the CHA-CHING alert sound comes in, the thought of all that N18,520 going into sorting out pending bills: aso ebi, food, LIGHT (because how will I watch skits on Instagram?), mobile data, I’ll stop here.

we can go an entire 120 minutes + penalties of the Nigeria vs South GBA African game—we still won’t finish listing all the potential debit alerts.

i wish the Nigerian team could play every day because everyone happens to be united on this front. Lose or win, we all tie into the mentality:

“we dye here”

And if it ain’t green and white, your color is irrelevant.

tribe, religion, political candidate, food, and money all try to divide us but football just happens to be that one thing where everyone just forgets where they’re from, and the color of their skin, and supports the country.

you can bill your guy any amount right now and he’d gladly give you but by the next day—it’s a completely different country.

Everyone’s eyes become atarodo-red.

all of sudden, the same guy who was willing to help remembers that I’m from a dead village in Osun State and has to treat me like what the village looks like.

It's crazy but we take the wins and hope the rest of the days get better.

take a cue from this babe, this might be a good time to get some things off your chest. I’m talking about the things you hide from your sponsors on WhatsApp status:
