Nigerian Halloween Costumes (You Want No Part of)

What’s up people?

My cousin sends me a link this week that shows a CNN report of a poll taking that finds the Nigerian accent as one of the world’s sexiest tongues. Our accent apparently came in fifth only behind the likes of the Italians, French and Spanish (NWO)! The caption read “dignified with just a hint of willful naivete, the deep, rich “oh’s” and “eh’s” of Naija bend the English language without breaking it, arousing tremors in places other languages can’t reach. Kinda makes the occasional phone scam worth the swindle”. This is so typical, even when Nigeria is given praise and presented in a positive light there is always a back handed insult awaiting to follow. Did these yahoos read my blog last week? I just told you all that we have over 250 dialects spoken in Nigeria so which accent in particular can they be talking about? And as for me, I am not down for positive reinforcement that accompanies blatant insults and disrespect of my people.

Ok people; Let me get focused…
I wrote about Halloween in Nigeria a few years back and many of you all enjoyed it. You liked it so much that I thought you know what why not do another blog on Halloween this week since everybody is gearing up for their Halloween festivities and are in search for that one show stopping custom that will make the biggest and loudest statement at the party. The only twist to this week’s post is I have highlighted the leading candidates in Nigeria that you want no part of representing in your Halloween custom because this group will bring attention to you only for the wrong reasons.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab – this yahoo will go down in our country’s history as the one that shamed my people as terrorist. The so called “underwear bomber” was convicted of attempting to detonate plastic explosives hidden in his draws while on board a flight en route to the United States. And because of his brain fart Nigerians worldwide are now under a bigger microscope now more than ever when we enter any international airport on planet earth.
Boko Haram – this group of militants have the audacity to associate themselves with the peaceful religion of Islam. I wish nobody dare wish to represent these mean spirited and lifeless group of terrorist. I wish to not draw any further attention to there cause. I loathe your existence.

Goodluck Jonathan – arguably the worst Nigerian president in history. His bio read as follows; a liar, corruption is at an all time high, heartless, breached and compromised Nigeria’s security, under his leadership Nigeria is more divided than ever and has yet to accomplish anything significant during his administration.
Super Eagles footballers – has any group of people brought Nigeria more heartache and suffering than this group of age cheats who take the pitch to represent Nigeria unmotivated as if someone has forced them to finish their plate of broccoli, brussel sprouts, carrots and spinach at the dinner table? But no worries though I stay supporting my Super Eagles, see you all in South Africa.

Na Wa O (NWO)!

Na Wa O! - is slang or a pidgin term used back home in Nigeria and other parts of Africa that simply illustrates something unbelievable, makes you speechless or leaves you flabbergasted.
