Ah, SAGEM! If you’re a Nigerian guy who grew up in the early 2000s, you know what I’m talking about. SAGEM was that brand you either had, or your cousin/friend/neighbor had and you’d be lowkey jealous. It wasn’t the flashiest, but it got the job done, and sometimes that’s all that mattered, right?

SAGEM mobile phones were the real MVPs of the time. Let's Forget Our sleek iPhones or Galaxy phones we flex with now for a minute; back then, SAGEM phones were the tough guys! Whether you were in Lagos traffic or jamming to some naija jams with your friends, your SAGEM was there never crapping out on you, even when it fell to the ground from your pocket after a serious "Omo!" moment. You could literally drop a SAGEM from the 3rd floor and it would still be working like nothing happened. True story, no cap.

And let’s talk about the flip phones. If you didn’t have a flip phone in the early 2000s, were you even living? You’d snap that bad boy shot after a call, making the loudest “CLICK” sound, and it felt like you were starring in your own action movie. If you had a SAGEM flip phone, you were definitely the boss of your block.

Now, some of us went a bit extra. You know the guys who had those high-end SAGEM models? They didn’t just have a phone; they had a status symbol. Custom ringtones? Please. "Yahoozee" by Olu Maintain blaring from the speakers? You were the coolest guy in the area, no doubt about it.

And then there was the SAGEM internet modem. Ah, yes, the Nigerian version of "Wait, make I finish this 5-minute before NEPA takes light." Dial-up internet was the original test of patience. If you could survive waiting 15 minutes to check your email, you could survive anything, even the slowest traffic on the 3rd Mainland Bridge.

But let’s be real, SAGEM was the real one in those early days. Tough, durable, and a bit quirky, they didn’t follow the trend, they set it.

To a woman it’s just sex…5 mins, max 30 minutes for the equivalent of 3months salary for an average guy.

Who really lost?

To you they are fish brains, but to them, men are fools whose IQ drop by half when it comes to sex.
