How To Cushion The Effect Of Nigerian “Shege”

How To Cushion The Effect Of Nigerian "Shege"

When Micheal Jackson sang *You Are Not Alone* he was referring to Nigerians. Yes, you aren’t alone in this renewed Shege era as I’ve come with an update for you. Update wey pass. I know coping in these times is hard. Here are a few traps to help cushion the situation.

1. Don’t bother registering at the gym

Have you seen the hike in transport fare? My dear appreciate God through your legs and put them to good use. Trekkk everywhere!!!

2. Indulge in cartoons

There’s something about that make-believe world that can excite your imagination and make you feel like a kid with no worries. But this time, you’ll forget you are Nigerian living in Nigeria for a bit! Just a little bit!

3. Call your ex

you need to blame somebody for everything happening in the country! Who better than your ex who did you dirty?

4. Take a side job at a Bukka

Don’t give me side eye naa…you might have to go and grind pepper like 5 times in a day sha ooo, but at least you’ll get free food. Think about it

5. Unbaddie Yourself

For my baddies, we all know times are hard, so no one will blame you for doing this. Rukky today can be Rukayat tomorrow. Ko lo far rara baby!

6. Don’t Date

They’ve sworn for some of you to always hop from relationship to relationship. Is it by force? Stay single for once in your life. Dating costs money and there’s no money right now. So stay away from love and all that it entails. It’s that simple.

7. Quit social media… Watch NTA

Have you ever considered how much you spend on data in a month??? Why waste money when we have local channels like NTA, TVC, Channels, Galaxy, MITV, AIT, and the rest to watch? After all, news na news.
