Yesterday, most places were closed where i am because of some snow storm...on the way out later in the evening, we were having a conversation and someone mentioned what would happen in an incidence of snow in Nigeria...i heard some really funny answers:

Reduction in Population - In other words, many would die. Think about those people that live under the bridge or simply on the straights...or the many handicapped.

Crime Reduction - Since nigerians are not used to snow, doubt if even armed robbers would be able to stand the cold or would want to go robb

Stimulate Economy - lol...geezz...i forgot what the logic behind this was...any ideas?

Migration - people may move back to where they originally belong...i think this also would affect the economy as people would take money back to their home states rather than the big cities...

Increased number of believers - justification for this is the fact that many would either believe that God is angry with us as nigerians...the world may be coming to an end...as such people would begin to believe more in whomever it is they believe...

Igbo women will open their wrappers... i can't explain it...but something about ibo women opening their wrappers meaning they mean business...


Not sure if it sounds funny on here, but it was the way these contributions were said that was funny and the exagerated way...

This did make me smile!

All I remember is when my grandmother came to visit, by September, when temperatures were still about 10 degrees above zero, she was refusing to leave the house lest "otutu pa mi" (in her words). So cute! I can't imagine if Nigerians had to deal with snow!

it will stimulate the economy in that ppl will spend money buying coats and winter gear to starve off the cold.

not to mention that it will invariably affect NEPA, they will be forced to keep on the light for longer so ppl can stay warm but then again the price of generators will go way up and petrol prices will be of the charts.
