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.
Hereβs our list from today:
1 Oby Ezekwesili
Co-founder of Transparency Intl and BBOG activist took a series of photos with famous personalities, all of which tell their own story, complete with lessons for her Twitter followers. See below:

This other person is not killing it, he’s killing the rest of us. Take a look.
4. Dr Joe Abah
Our favourite evil spirit is both thrilled and dismayed over recent events:
I'm honoured to have been invited to address the Economic Management Team today on Agency performance, productivity and rationalisation.

After my presentation to the Economic Mgt Team:
VP: "This is brilliant. I like everything. How do we do it?

Doc but you know the Nigerian definition of pro-bono means official house, cars, all expense paid trips, estacode etc

Are the lawmakers doing it pro bono?
— Sergio (@khayhova) September 21, 2017
Pro bono? When even OON, MON, CFR, and other national awardees ask for money for receiving the award.

Tweet totally unrelated, yet so apropos we couldn’t resist. Couldee be why they wanted Dr Abah to do pro bono?
Some actually want you to succeed…but not just too soon, not just too much, not just more than them. What is your move?
