5 Types of People You Should Avoid Trusting

They always say “police is your friend,” but we all know that’s the biggest universal lie. Nibooo!
In this life, trust is a luxury, and some people have proven over and over again that they don’t deserve even half of it. If you’ve lived in Naija long enough, you already know the real culprits.

Here are 5 types of people you should NEVER trust, for the sake of your peace of mind:

1. Nigerian Tailors

I believe that the judgement waiting for this set of people is still doing push-ups.
They’ll tell you, “come back tomorrow.” Tomorrow will turn to next year.
You see that style you showed them? Forget about it. What you’ll get is their own “inspiration.” Tailors don’t just break trust, they break hearts.

2. Politicians

If lies were a sport, Nigerian politicians would be gold medalists every four years.
They’d be unrivalled.
They’ll promise you heaven on earth, but deliver potholes and apology speeches. If you like, trust them at your own risk.

3. Clients That Say “I’ll Get Back to You”

Whether it’s a client or a company HR, once you hear “We’ll get back to you,” just know they’ve already ghosted you in advance.
No one is getting back to anyone rara
That’s Nigerian for “Don’t call us again.”

4. That Friend That Likes to Trek

Don’t trust them when they say “It’s just a short walk.”
Before you even realize, that walk will turn into a full marathon. Before you know it, you’re sweating like you ran around the field in Agege Stadium for 90 minutes.

5. Aba Boys

You’ll buy “Gucci” and by the time you get home, reality will dawn on you that it was “Cucci” that was sold to you. Aba boys are sweet talkers, but trust them? Never.
You’ll end up with a Rolex that starts ticking backwards.
