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 Eketi Ette
Today has been a day of good news, so let’s lead with the bad. The floods in Benue state have created a humanitarian crisis, and Nigerians are pitching in to help…except that in Nigeria, there’s still a pecking order for relief efforts. Hence Eketi’s groans below:
2. Abayomi Shogunle
The Assistant Commissioner of Police, TwitterNG-knighted Sir Abayomi Shogunle is patting himself on the back for the crop of policemen Nigeria has:
We must be living in a different Nigeria, where the police actually have respect for human life.
Shior.
3. Elnathan John
The pat on the back was not sufficient, it seems, Police NG is coming out with a TV show. Here’s the programme guide:
Don’t take our word for it- Might be worse.
4. Cheta Nwanze
And now to the good news. Super Eagles of Nigeria decimated the Lions of Cameroon 4-0. You must be hearing the uproar from Twitter NG in the hinterlands, lack of data notwithstanding. It’s after all, “orgasms”.

5. Ben Bruce
If there’s one thing that unites Nigerians from all religions and tribes, it’s football. Uncanny, isn’t it. The commonsense Senator thanks our Eagles:

9. Mikel Obi
He may not have tweeted, but this goal is more than sufficient noise.
