Who the hell are these guys on radio, (Rhythm 93.7FM) that probably entered airplanes for the first times in their lives when they started working yet speak with accents that have no roots? The collective enunciation bears a semblance with a crossbreed of Mauritania and Afghanistan? Do they think they are Americans because overnight they learnt how to use the word, “holla” in a sentence?

What is the justification for driving like a senseless bastard, breaking traffic laws and running other drivers off the road, simply because you have Army officers as passengers?
Z
Why can’t NEPA understand that after a hard-day’s work, we want to come back home and just chill? Sometimes, do nothing fantastic but utilize the simple basic appliances we own, such as our whirlpool bathtubs, washing machines, massage chairs, oops sorry for the mix up, I mean, televisions, air conditioners, and electric kettles.etc. For as long as I can remember, I have not been able to understand why we have power outages in NIGERIA, (Giant of Africa, my ass). It kills me every single time the light goes out. Why the hell did they just take the light. Is this a zoo?
Z
When is the Rivers State Government going to rid our streets of these damn beggars, especially the ones that assault we drivers with pictures of old sores/fresh looking wounds or most times the actual patients displaying their decayed/decaying sores embalmed with gentian violet?
Z
Why do these people that think because they call me Sir, they can just wake up one day and relay their problems to me in search of financial solutions. Strangers, as far as I am concerned, whose surnames I can’t know or even bother to. Call me mean but when I don’t have, I DON’T HAVE.
Right now, I’m not particularly excited about anything, so I will pause here. To be continued shortly.

Does someone need a hug?
I died laughing at the term 'holla' that is too funny, and the whole display of sores/wounds made my flesh crawl. I could never be a doctor.
How you dey?
Baroque you are too freaking funny! Your sarcasm never fails to make me laugh. Lol@ the accents being a cross between afghani and mauritanian accents. As for NEPA there is no answer for that one...they better behave themselves when i come home.
Dang, you and thse beggers eh...where's the love?!!
baroque you are a hoot…your hysteria is hysterical …
‘…rid our streets of these dam beggars…displaying their decayed/decaying sores embalmed with gentian violet…’
‘why do these people think they can call you sir, they can just wake up…and relay their problems to me in search of financial solutions…but when I don’t have. I don’t have’
Don’t yah just luv the needy!!! ;-)
Holla!!!... *runs for her life b4 baroque catches her*…LMAO…
p.s
NEPA/PHCN are just bastards, plain and simple.
my loving Queen, that hug would do fine...i'm tired & hungry...getting off work now...all roads lead to Jevinik
@NDQ, rebound mi, which love be that, when these people will not let the son of man concentrate in traffic...forget NEPA, just buy diesel/petrol & listen to Rhythm 93.7
@scooby my darlin, needy ko! i have rights too, dont i?...the 'holla' aint the problem, its just the ambiguity of the accents
@rhythm dj's: i KNOW, right! i mean, it'd be a different thing altogether if they actually got the accents right.
@those useless non-people: dont even get me started. idiats, the lot of them.
@electricity: a conspiracy theory is that the 'powers' are holding back supply because they control diesel supply, which makes them more money than they could ever replicate legally.
@rivers and beggars: no words. none. zip. and not just cuz i know nothing about rivers state beggars.
@last bit: they call u sir to soften your kind ears to their sincere pleas. maybe they should try other words..
Lol!!! You’re the second person complaining about the (93.75 again!!!) presenters on blogville…I look forward to calling them to just yarn my piece of mind!!!...And I will say it in pidgin English lol…
Apparently management cares less about delivery…otherwise they should have sent them on training since yesterday…that is if they are malleable enuff to be thought!
Hmmm sorry ehn! I pray for your sake that NEPA/PHCN will not take the light o this evening o! (tall dream…no?)
Hmmm, unfortunately, people ascribe depth to radio (television by association) presenters 'cos they are on air. Not so, no not all of them have depth; why, they seemingly speak English and we hear jargons (oops, crossbreds).
People believe everyone is moved (oops, gullible) by the 'title' sir.
Not to worry, time......
What will it take to excite you now?
Re (Rhythm 93.7FM) – Lol @ the crossbreed of Mauritania and Afghanistan accent. It is sad that we think we need an accent to look posh and cool. I am sure they think that is what the audience wants to hear.
Re Senseless driving – That is all they know how to do? Drive! Lawless Citizens
Re NEPA – If one is an animal, you must expect him to see his home as a forest. NEPA officials are animals. Why won’t they see the country as their Zoo? Foolish people
RE Beggars – Nothing to say – but seeing ones makes me realize how lucky I
Baroque, I am giving you a hug... Oya come closer
Yo Yo Yo

@Rita, please please, where is this place? I would kill for a proper massage (preferably by a man) right now…yes, man, I need strong hands & no unnecessary distractions
@buttercupz, somedays they sound like there’s some Welsh in it…
as per NEPA, I have always been optimistic, but I just don’t see it happening too…
…they don’t only show pictures of the sores, the ‘sufferer’ is right before you
& NO, you cant have a lamborghini…you might as well have asked for a helicopter
LOL
@Afrobaby, the Sir thing is not only for financial reasons…there’s the naija factor for offices and positions (no be my fault)…I gats represent...
my dear, it was almost snowing once in my house, thanks to UK Gold & company…LMFAO
PS: my number doesn’t go for nothing oh
@Standtall, this morning, I stopped on the road to talk to a vulcaniser when one dirty woman with mental issues came and asked me for 20 naira that she wanted to go to church…the aggression was like she had given it to me earlier to hold for her…she even tapped me…make una see trouble oh…I almost wound up her hand in the window…my cousin laughed me to scorn…& then my a/c came on by force…rubbish
@gnaija, they are not naija people oh…these radio hosts…I once listened to this show called FLAVA, hosted by one guy & a girl…these guys are so down to earth, they switch between pidgin & polished English and its so cool….then these guys are here forming rubbish ‘aspro’ & then very annoyingly pronouncing Nigerian names wrongly and with a unidentified foreign accent…
& NO, I’m not yet Mr. Chairman…my money never complete
@Tommeh, na we for naija dey suffer ourselves
@NaijaIdol, NEPA has succeeded in having me sleep with my gen like 4nights in a row...

as for Nepa guess they took the saying 'africa the dark continent' literally and to a whole new level
darn I was so excited to go home and you reminded me of all the stuff I HATE about Nigeria. but soooo true...
**passererons**
It's okay to ask your question. I will answer when we meet face to face.
Meanwhile, there was one afternoon I was listening to 93.7 and they were talking about cat and mouse with their oyibo accent. Someone then mentioned "mices" as plural of "mice"...if u see as I shook my head...
Heehee
Me? Taunt you? It was you doing all the taunting not me.
~NDQ, qu'il serait intéressant...hope i'll be in town then...
~MissDefMayb, so much the dark continent...& NO you cant listen to it online
~wordsmith, dont be unexcited, thats our reality yet we catch mad fun within
~Rita, yaay, i heard it oh & i screamed, MICES???...i was so ashamed for them
~badderchic, then maybe we should do something about it...how do you reckon?...i need your blood...hehehe
baroque, I just wanted to say I love your blog simply cos i love the mind behind it...
Merry xmas 2 you 2 darling...kisses
i disagree with you on Rhytym presenters
they are no galaxy tv presenters(they SUCK)
Biggie sounds a ok......
Ik is the coolest ish........
Kemistry is a ok.......
Phoenix is ok.......
Nanya is a ok......
Adaure is on tv not radio but i think her accent is a little forced(bite me)
some people have accents cause they've spent time there
some people have developed accents
Now dont get me wrong-i'm not saying every presenter should have an accent
Yaw on 95.1 fm has no accent and his message is passed which is what
every presenter is about.....pass the message -entertain the people
i have family who have effortless accents whether its Yoruba and or English
maybe thats why i'm soft on Rhytym presenters...........*wink*
This is naija-uniformed peeps are lords
NEPA is Nigeria's natural disaster-we live with it...........sadly
Ask your Governor to talk to Fashola.........*wink*
Dear you aiint mean
you need not explain to anyone how you spend your hard earned money
and just cause you refuse to give without reason..............ride on.......
and i have the apollo in my eye right????
@ Rita. I heard that "mices" thing but not sure if it was on 93.7. It's just effing annoying how these presenters croon their forced-fone into our ears. It's just distracting!
bArOquE. You've just summed up all the challenges we face in Naija, as common men. On the Sir thing... nope, I don't share that with you.
~shubby, stop making me blush *smiles shyly & bows head*...hehehe
~ibiluv, do i sense beef?...btw which one is it that Fahsola has done? be sure b4 you recommend
~mizcynic, well depends on what side you lay on during...
~aloofar, i so heard that MICES thing, & it was on Rhythm, plus, i know who said it...LOL
...well, some of us happen to have a few people that call us Sir, no be my fault...hehehehe...btw, are you in PH?
Loving the new profile pic
baroque tell me that the man in the profile pic is you and i will let you keep kissing me all night long...wow @ the buns of steel!!!!
come I don't even know why i was getting wet with excitement at the thought cos i no say no be u jare...hisssssssss...*shubby doo heads back to hers*
if you kiss me again na fight!
Na wa for this your ashawo picture o!
What exactly do you propose?
You ve just summed up what it means to live. in Nigeria. Having lived in Nigeria all my life, i realised I never got used to these things.. I pine constantly electricity. My disappointemt was always fresh and sore each time there was an outage; my joy was childlike when it returned, even when I wasnt sure what I wanted to do with it... I loathe generators, the idea of it, the noise... but I covert and pray for a time when I can do a big soundproof somewhere far away near my gate.. where I ll pay someone for constant maintainace- i hate Gen wahala.
My brother, lets not talk about Radio Presenters.......I wish they were good enough for one to learn things from, to copy from; but they are mostly ignorant, arrogant fools. They dont read, they dont know, they are proud... those three dont go together. They are doomed. They are one of the lesser curses blighting us..(But I love them too, they are what we have.They are our own) But right now am more concerned about the kidnapping in PH.. they kidnapped my friend's father last friday?? was anything on the news???
Am far away and sad as I often am. But your post has loads of laughter in it. Our life is complex, hard sometimes, but it is good.
~QOMC, thanks, i try to take nice photoz...LOL
~shubby, thats me ofcourse (without body hair)...alas my lips shall hurt if its all night long, but there's a lot more we can do *wink*...stay wet
~chairlady, do you want us to make this proposal public? na wa for you oh
~Jaja...see my brother, where you dey since naa?...i knew you would share my pain, you just took the batton & killed it...LMAO

Compliments of the season.
Seasons greetings and happy new year in advance xx
Baroque my brother! Happy new year in advance. Hope to read more from you in the new year. Hope we will finally get together and drnk that beer.
"When is the Rivers State Government going to rid our streets of these damn beggars, especially the ones that assault we drivers with pictures of old sores/fresh looking wounds or most times the actual patients displaying their decayed/decaying sores embalmed with gentian violet?"
You seem like a very heartless person for making that statement. Do u think someone who has such sores or wounds who is more than likely in a lot of pain wants to stand on the road and beg?!! Have some empathy my brother.
Its Naija! get over it joo!
Happy new year sweets....
May it be all u desire....
B, its been a while since ive been on ur blog! I read this post then, forgot what i was going to say.
At least Im not the only one who thinks the accent is annoying!
Nepa? apparently i have a bf in NEPA that makes sure that when im sleeping there's light (im mostly out during the day, generator at night) however, he's been fking up of late!
Happy New year!
oh, and I liked the 20 naira note on ur page, why did u change it?
confession: i used to come here to look at it! ... and are u trying to give me tachycardia with ur pics? take time o!
I definitely do not miss NEPA.
Happy nu year!

woo!! Where've I been all this while?? Now I'll be visiting this blog more often. Those radio presenters, especially at Rhythm, were so annoying, I mean the accents were so blatantly fake. As for that Nepa, I hope it ends up like telecommunications, which though not that highly efficient, did experience considerable development. If that should happens, I'd imagine that at least we would have constant electricity and the few power outages would make headline news (???)
abi you no wan post in jan 09?...you berra get your finger out, sharpish and rectify the matter
