It's like Nigerians like calling things (and even people) twice. I saw a post on Facebook asking for such names. See a long list oh! I'm surprised.

Please, add your own to the list. Don't spoil the show oh!

We even have someone so good he was named twice.

Is this how dumb Nairaland/Nairalanders have become?

I am not surprised. Afterall Ṣeun Oṣewa spends most of his time on "twitter", washing the feet of his feminist dominatrix.

May God have mercy on Seun and other tech entrepreneurs who have turned their social media technologies to a psychological operation which makes promising young minds become lazy, dumb and unintelligent.
So, why the Lamentation? That your life lacks fun doesn't mean other people can't catch fun to cushion the effects of the bad economy dear. Everyone can't be you oh.
