[25th – 30th  July, 2011]

 

MONDAY:  @mandilicious01’s first tweet as the new week began was: “Good morning twithrts wishing y’all a stress free week. Stay blessed.” @Nsuaha started his with stress, as his lecturer made him wake up early but was nowhere in sight. “Dat man shd just come and give his test…after all he made me wake up dat early *hiss*” he tweeted angrily. However, the test most people, especially rappers and lyricists were eager to stand up to was freestyling on Don Jazzy’s Enigma beat. @BragginRightz listened to a version and he didn’t have a positive review. “This Must Be A Joke Version Of Enigma Rite?? Wtf??,” he tweeted. “This Nigga Read A-Z Thru Out & Called It A FreeStyle?? *Brks ‎​Blackberry *” In @ibetapassmynebo’s opinion, there was someone else who would use the beat for other purposes. “I bet Teco benson is working on using ds Enigma beat as one of his action-scene soundtrack….probably where Jim Iyke kills RMD.” he tweeted.

TUESDAY: “Twitter has killed David Guetta d same way they killed Bill Cosby *mscheeeewwww*” @CaptNaya fumed in his tweet as the rumours of the singer’s death almost went viral on Twitter. @ThatIgboBoy wasn’t particularly bothered. He tweeted: “David Guetta is not dead.. Even if he was, who cares? He doesn’t sing in his own songs. :s” @AdRil_ has a compilation of other people’s songs and proudly declared to her followers, “My fone’s music libary so on point …I guarantee u will dance your ass off! Swear down…” For @kayaderemi, there was only one tune that would play in her head all night. “I’ve downloaded so many #enigma mixes…I think I’m gonna hear dat beat in my head all night.” she tweeted.

WEDNESDAY: What tweeters did all day was go in hard on the trending topic, #ThingsWeLearnedOnTwitter. @pwitti_mee: “#thingswelearnOnTwitter the best way to get more ffers is to twitfyt…..”, @_Santi__ : “#ThingsWeLearnedOnTwitter anyone who’s twitcon is a pic of their neck UP is FAT!”, @KiDTsQ: “#ThingsWeLearnedOnTwitter How To Plank.” @CuteNaija was so addicted to Twitter that it the upgrades Facebook were making didn’t matter to him. He emphasised that much in his tweet: “Facebook wants me to come back with the New Facebook chat included in the upgrade!…Leave me!! I Love Twitter!”
THURSDAY:  @feline_eyes loved something else. “I need deliverance. I can eat roasted oka & ube for a day through out the year & I’ll be satisfied.” she told her followers. @MOsallyHITS however tweeted about something she completely hated. “I am really sorry to break some people’s heart,” she said. “I stopped taking my medications on Monday X_X I will start again today. I hate drugs.” For @Mystiqqal, she didn’t like the new time table. “Thursdays nd fridays r jus vewi annoying dis semester,classes till 6pm! Huz child do dey want to kill?” she asked rhetorically in her tweet.

 

FRIDAY: @AssistantBF’s observation was that most tweeters should not be believed. His tweet said: “Sometimes I come on Twitter, go thru’ my TL and it seems like there’s some competition for who can Tweet the BIGGEST lie. Ekare.. :)” No one came forward to admit to that or deny it, but tweeters told us what wasn’t other people’s idea with the trending topic, #NationalNotMyIdeaDay. @mrdicksonkalu: “Walking away 4rm my wife wasn’t my idea. Its just dt i exhaustefd my lifelines- Frank Edoho #NationalNotMyIdeaDay”, @JaneClement: “Running the Country while Alhaji was ill was not my idea.What is good for the goose is good for the gander. -Turai #NationalNotMyIdeaDay”

SATURDAY: Today wasn’t National not my idea day though. It was the day for the launch of P-Square’s ‘The Invasion Album’. @TheExtrovertKid had a word of advice for those who will pretend to be at the show. “If you’re doing overnight browsing at a Cybercafe in Akure, there’s really no need claiming you’re at the Invasion bash.” he tweeted. The action wasn’t only at the Eko Hotel, there was an alleged fight at Oniru beach between two tweeters. @Okikola_ insinuated that he had an idea who they were. His tweet was: “I am Sure Those guys that had a ‘twitter Fight’ at ONIRU today, venue of TeamYabaLeft’s Rag Party, are YORUBA probably from Ibadan.”
