Things To Expect From Abroad Uncles When They Return To Nigeria.
For the purpose of this post, the package always comes in a Ziploc bag which will contain:
1). Crest or Colgate Toothpaste.
2). 2 packs of Dove or Irish Spring (We tell you say we no dey baff for Naija?).
3). Bombom Chocolate, Snickers, assorted candies and two tins of foreign Peak milk.
4). One pack of Gillette Roll On for us to take care of our body odour.
5). Two packet of everlasting chewing gum you can chew for days and still taste the sugar.
6). Medication (they'll tell you the paracetamol we have in Nigeria is chaff).
Now, that's for the Ziploc pack.
If you asked for shoes as a lady, just expect those heels Madam Curie wore when she discovered those radioactive elements.
If you asked for a phone, expect an IPhone 4 or Blackberry Pearl that uses a roller as navigator.
Don't you bother asking for a laptop, unless you want a computer that was used during Charles Babbage era.
And of course, don't forget the 2000 naira they'll squeeze in your hand when leaving.
Africans don suffer from abroad uncles hand!
