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:

Dear, we are UNFORTUNATELY unconcerned about deaths anymore as a nation. We simply read the story, sometimes read the headlines and keep scrolling.
As long as the tragic event did not affect any friend or family member, it is not our business. Sad!!!

Hopefully, you translate this ’empathy’ to other tragic events that happen around the country.

Okay, you will first laugh hard at this before you now realise that it is actually a serious issue.
Three years on, Dasuki has yet known his fate. Oga oo!!
5. Nigerian Presidency
UPDATE: The Chief of @DefenceInfoNG Staff, General Abayomi Gabriel Olonisakin has authorized the deployment of additional Special Forces to Plateau State to beef up the strength of Operation Safe Haven (OPSH). #SecuringNC

Hopefully, with all the “deployments” and the “responses” something standard will be done. We should remember how ‘they’ deployed and deployed to Benue and yet…
We need to start feeling safe in this country.
A foreigner even has concerns:
Just had the chance to check the news of #Nigeria on @AJEnglish after seeing couple of tweets and I’m really sorry to hear and read about what is happening in #Plateau. No matter what excuse they have, killing people does not justify.

Even if you want to argue.
Know when to argue & when not to argue.
Know who to argue with & who not to argue with.

Okay.
7. Bamikole Omisore
I still cannot understand why we are killing each other in this country. It is getting too much.
