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 Sundar Pichai
The CEO of Google has been in town, and he’s been quite adventurous; he spoke Yoruba and danced to Small Doctor’s Penalty.

2. Editi Effiong ruminates on the significance of this moment:
Nigeria, in spite of all the wahala, is the future of tech in Africa. Facebook, Google, Wiki etc have clear Nigeria strategies – more coming

3.Russel Fradin
As we shout enthusiastically about the future of tech, let’s not forget potential pitfalls like:
Most startups fail because they are horribly managed. Always amazing how this is overlooked as we talk about ideas, markets and competition.

4. Dr Joe Abah
You know how you think you have successfully escaped “the call of God”? Think again.
Growing up, my greatest fear was being called by God to be a true prophet: a life of ridicule, suffering & pain. I'm a public servant now?

Hehehe. Still the wisest.
5. Atiku Abubakar
He may not be able to fly down to London to see the Lion King like his comrades are doing, but the former Vice President is drinking to the president’s health regardless:
Great to hear @NGRPresident is getting better, and is wearing his trademark smile again. Wishing him a speedy and full recovery pic.twitter.com/BJT6CkVr8T

6. Seyi
Take a page out of Seyi’s book; look and see in 3D:
Life is all about perspective. The way you see a Traffic Jam is not the same way a Gala and LaCasera seller sees it.

7. Derefaka
We know; we know. This is a bombshell:
When you died fighting for Amaechi or wike, and you just heard they were both spotted together in a chopper in port Harcourt ??? pic.twitter.com/rv3bRcrlfX

Still, it’s politics.
