RE: African Time

in #bouncepad7 years ago

True so. We even got a metaphor for it, the nigerian time. That's how rooted the custom is.Reminds me of my time at NYSC camp, the swearing in ceremony. The special guest, the governor of the state, was scheduled to arrive at 9am to kick start the event . That was not to be, as we waited for this man of honor till the hot hours of 2 in the afternoon, only for his vice to arrive in his place. And thats when the swearing in, earlier arranged for 9am began its proceeding

Sort:  

Wow, you guys had to wait 5 hours because of governor that did not show up eventually. It's so sad. Once a lecture was to hold 7am. The lecture started 12pm o. I was just waiting for apology, I heard none. Instead he told us stories. I kept telling my friend, I've not heard an apology o but it seemed funny. It's so sad.

Ha! Apology ke. You take every insult and swallow it. With Nigerians, once you are in a position of power you can do no wrong, much less apologise to those below you. Ha! So that his agbada would shrink? No o

😂 😂 asin eh
