Nigerian mums might shout your ears off, but when you really think about it, they are carrying the world on their back. Here’s a list of the things Nigerian mums do that the entire country needs to thank them for.
1. Recycling everything
Nigerian mothers recycle everything from bottles and plastic cans to clothes and shoes. Nothing goes to waste with a Nigerian mum around. It might be annoying to open a tub of ice cream to discover egusi in its place but in the long run, your mama is saving the earth. Be grateful.
2. Cooking for everybody
Nigerian mums rarely cook small meals. They are cooking with the security guard, the help and maybe a few neighbours in mind. Those huge coolers of food be saving lives since 1878.
3. Carrying literally everything you could possibly need wherever they go
Every Nigerian mum has a purse that’s been magically enhanced to contain more than meets the eye because what other explanation is there for how they have EVERYTHING on them at all times? You could need a pot, tuber of yam, a bit of hellfire, and a vial of Jesus’ blood and a Nigerian mum would whip these things out of her purse in seconds.
4. Praying
Nigerian mums are always ready to say a word of prayer for somebody. Whether it’s for healing or to lay a curse, prayers are being said and somebody is being saved (or killed).
5. Prophecies
Israelite prophets in the bible no do pass Nigerian mums. The day you tell them you want to travel is the day they’ll see a vision that will save your life but ultimately keep you from making the trip. Don’t complain, sha. Mama knows what’s best.
6. Saving money
Nigerian mums are best in saving money. They will even help you save your own money. You might never see that money again but the point is that the money was saved and so were lives.
