Every day on the Nigerian internet, 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 Chibok girls
It’s all joy today as the parents of the abducted Chibok girls who were recently released finally saw their children after three years. The release of the 82 Chibok girls occurred after negotiations with the Federal Government of Nigeria and Boko Haram, the terrorist group who captured them in the first place,

2. Okang and the Eyo Festival
The Lagos Eyo festival held today and it rained. What a wow.
At the Eyo Festival grounds and it's raining a bloody storm! I'm so disappointed!
I can't believe these guys forgot to hire a rainmaker!

Who would have thought?
Mr Aye Dee says it’s nothing new:
Erm It has rained on the day of Eyo Festival before, I remember sometime in the late 80s, early 90s, it was on the day of a major downpour.

People who seem to know neither the culture or the history of Lagos talking about it never rains and other balderdash.

We hear you, sailor.
3 Ayisha Osori
Trevor Noah, SNL Live and political satirists are making it rain in America. Can we export this success to Nigeria?
Elnathan John thinks not. Ayisha worries about the backlash.
If we had Saturday Night Live type satire aimed at Nigerian politicians their fans would be more pained & traumatized than the politicians

7. Wale and his barbing woes
Turns out it’s not only ladies who bother about their hair. Guys do too. Follow the conversation:
Every barbershop has "the wack barber" and I just had to reject one. It doesn't get easier.
— Wale Lawal (@WalleLawal) May 20, 2017
We've got to do what we've got to do bro.
— ST. (@seyitaylor) May 20, 2017
For real. The guy was so shocked but Abeg.
— Wale Lawal (@WalleLawal) May 20, 2017
He should sorry abeg.

All you vain fine boys…barbing is a confidence game, it's not a profession, it's not even a trade sef (they don't used to do freedom)

The most important talent a good barber has is to make you feel a million bucks, regardless of what he's done to your head.
— Yinka Adegoke (@YinkaWrites) May 20, 2017
But once his hand starts to shake and he can't make eye contact in the mirror…game over. We're done.

I mean, the barber that did this by accident to Bobby Brown, told him he looked great (here's Bobby looking in the mirror first time) pic.twitter.com/YfAEflGLt4

Man, I know that after-cut mirror squint so well.
— Wale Lawal (@WalleLawal) May 20, 2017
All my best barbers in New York, learned their trade 'inside'. Sometimes when it went wrong and they told me it went right, I quietly agreed

Laughing out loud.
