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:

A relatively ‘religious’ Nigerian would have said something like: “They have come from the village oo! My people come and see”, but the Television host only gave the story.
A 50-year-old woman, Juli Briskman was fired from her job and her picture went viral after she raised a middle finger at Donald Trump’s motorcade at it passed but, Nigerian-American fantasy author, Nnedi Okorafor has questioned the legality of her dismissal.

Paradise Papers: Saraki Hides No Asset and Violates No Law
