Every day, there are people who keep our eyes glued to our phone screens as we read their rants, opinions, perspectives on political and social matters, etc. Sometimes, they are just downright ridiculous. We make it our job to take down the names of these noisemakers.
Here’s our list from today:
1. Pablo Ayodeji, resident of Ibadan, christened Ayodeji Olaoluwa Adedeji
Quite a day we’ve had on Twitter Nigeria. The bants were endless, Duchess Savage was crowned Queen, Women all over Nigeria were proud of one of their own and #KeepThechange just won’t stop trending.
The story began with a certain Pablo with entitlement issues.
[GET THE BACKGROUND HERE]: “This is how #5kBae aka #KeepTheChangeBae story began“
We like @TexTheLaw’s summary too.
A guy took a girl on a date
And thought that romance was his fate
But when he decried
Her puttin'im aside
The lady sent him a rebate— Texène Wenger (@TexTheLaw) March 30, 2017
2. Ore, First of her name, otherwise known as #KeepTheChangeBae but we prefer Her Majesty, Queen Savage, the One and Only
Appropriately so, because who does cool on Ibadan Twitter like her? Who can make a hashtag trend for a day and a half with no signs of slowing down? Who can in one tweet speak for millions of women around in Naija the way this woman did? Who else?
Nobody but Queen Savage, I tell you.
When Pablo abused her for refusing to get into a relationship with him after he’d spent 3,800 on wining and dining her, if one can even call it that, the Queen simply laughed and sent him a refund- with change.
Aha. Now you get the whole #KeepTheChangeBae bizness!
[TWITTER WAS IN AWE]: “AND THE BANTS BEGAN TO FLY” “PABLO KOSIBAR” “DUCHESS OF SAVAGEVILLE”
3. Pablo A name accursed
Now, everyone who bears Pablo has washed their hands off the name.
Bearing Pablo is like bearing Judas. You may not be Iscariot, but you still have betrayer written all over you.
Another Pablo- real name:Ayodeji Aransiola- found himself having to clarify: eez not me oo.
when your name is Pablo Ayodeji and you have to dissociate yourself from all banter. pic.twitter.com/aMra9VJdQb

LOL. There is always a Judas. But wait o, why did you call him Ibadan Pablo? There are possibly good Pablos in Ibadan o. https://t.co/6HZcDn4Uyn

5. Babajide Fadoju
Because Ibadan was taking a beating, someone decided to do something about it.
Introducing the real Ibadan. You’re welcome.

6. Wema Bank, First Bank and other Nigerian brands
These brands drove the conversation even furter on Twitter. Best way to make hay while the sun shines
@missmoshiku Send your #FirstBank account number via DM to receive a reward of N5000 for being an empowered woman. #Keepthechangebae
— FirstBank Nigeria (@FirstBankngr) March 30, 2017
You don't need the change to open an account with *945# today! #keepthechangebae #5kBae #Withyoualltheway
— Wema Bank (@wemabank) March 30, 2017
Dear DSTV, a customer wants to know- c’est possible?
Now you have to prove him wrong.
Bros @Pabloayodeji, sorry we're late. U can double that #KeepTheChangeBae money in time for ur next date. You know what to do! Don't dull! pic.twitter.com/yineKbOXzh
— NairaBET (@NairaBET) March 30, 2017
Instead of getting sandwiched on a bus from Lagos to Ibadan for N1500, why not share a more comfy ride on GoMyWay from N600 & #KeepTheChange pic.twitter.com/ZcHNf7gBOu
— GoMyWay (@gomywayafrica) March 30, 2017
Lagos twitter ladies will not refund the money though.
Another win for Ibadan twitter.

7. Omojuwa
The Lesson
Just in case the message was lost in all the bants, Omojuwa and a few others made certain to pen it down: Entitlement is not cute. A date is not automatic acceptance of a relationship.
The #keepthechangebae debacle has exposed an embarrassing decay in our entitlements as youths [boys]. We need to raise our boys right.
— SAGE. (@olufisiayomi) March 30, 2017
We need to educate our boys. That taking a girl on a date is a privilege and it earns you no rights afterwards.
— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) March 30, 2017
Privilege;noun
: a right or benefit that is given to some people and not to others. That she AGREED to go with YOU and not someone else…— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) March 30, 2017
…makes it a privilege. If she is cultured herself, she'd see you sharing your time with her as one too. So respect flows organically.
— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) March 30, 2017
I have taught my daughter not to expect to be taken out.
RATHER GO OUT TOGETHER! Go dutch! Each in their car & back to respective houses? https://t.co/LQyQGI4s8k— Aisha Yesufu (@AishaYesufu) March 30, 2017
8. Pablo Ayodeji
The apology
He apologised, humbly and everything.

When Airtel commiserated with him, some tweep quickly turned it into something else
Really sucks how everything backfired with your date bro @Pabloayodeji ?, but you can always turn things around. #CheerUp ???

9. Akolade Olashigun
Emotional blackmail
d most sensible tweet among them all.What people fail to know is the endless trolling may drive him to suicide.
— Kola Ibrahim (@alpontif) March 30, 2017
Is this some reverse psychology type shit?
