  • How Gen-Z Nigerians Flirt

    How Gen-Z Nigerians Flirt

    Every generation deserves love, and Gen-Zs are no exception. They may go about it in ways other generations can’t understand, but it works for them. This is how to know for sure that a Gen-Z Nigerian is flirting with you. 

    Emojis 

    Since most of the flirting is done over social media, they use a lot of emojis. If it’s not 🥺, it’s 🙈 or 🫣. 

    Social media marriage 

    They do a lot of things backwards, so before they send you a DM, they’re letting everyone know y’all are married. One day, they’ll just start calling you my wife/ husband. It is what it is.  

    Playlists 

    Once they know they like you, they’ve already made you a playlist. It doesn’t matter what streaming platform you use, they’ll get it done. Also, expect it to ruin your algorithm.

    TikTok 

    Are they really flirting with you if they don’t send you at least 15 TikToks a day? Once they ask if you have a TikTok account, forget about it. 

    Calls

    They always start by saying they don’t talk much, but they’ll use calls to finish your battery. If they’re not buying airtime, they’re using FaceTime or WhatsApp. Your phone will be hot enough to cook beans, and they’ll still be going. 

    Violent attraction 

    Nothing says flirting like Gen-Zs alluding to you killing them. They let you know you’re hot, but not without stating how many ways they want you to use your hotness to end their life. 

    Biting

    When dogs like you, they lick your face. When Gen-Z Nigerians like you, they bite you. Don’t be scared. They’re just trying to absorb your flavour.

    8 Things Gen-Z Nigerians Should Be Able to Accomplish in a Day

    Since Gen-Z Nigerians should not be wasting their day doing things that give them joy, here’s a list of eight things they should be able to accomplish in a day. All they have to do is apply themselves.

    1) Build a startup

    What else are they doing that they can’t build and scale a startup before their estate gate is locked at 10 p.m.? They just have to wake up before 6 a.m.

    2) Create web4

    While the whole world is raving about web3, why not take it one step further and introduce web4. Virtual reality is cool but it’s getting boring. That’s why Gen-Z Nigerians should use their energy to create new webs. Why not virtual smelling? They should create an app that can tell us who farted in the room. Instead, they’re worrying about things like school.

    3) Launch their own cryptocurrency

    They can finally put all their phone pressing to good use.

    4) Rule a country

    Why be a leader of tomorrow when you can be the leader of today? Presiding over the affairs of a country seems like a more productive use of their time than sleep. What has sleep ever done for anyone?

    5) Add more hours to the day

    Create a new time system that allows for fifteen hours of personal growth and eight hours of sleep. The new time schedule should also allow for time to relax and bond with friends and family. If anyone can do it, the Gen-Z’s can.

    6) Solve the traffic problem in Lagos state

    They’ll be complaining about prices of cabs but will not do something to solve the traffic problem in Lagos state? That doesn’t really make sense. Maybe if they spent less time doing alte things, they can solve it in their next cab ride.

    7) End global warming

    Gen-Z’s are the ones that’ll need the Earth for longer, so they might as well put in the work. Millennials have gotten their best years out, they’ll be fine.

    8) Get to the bottom of the fuel scarcity

    Nigeria exports oil, but Nigeria doesn’t have fuel. 2+2 is supposed to be four, but that’s not what’s happening right now. What are the Gen-Z’s doing about the fuel scarcity?

    11 Things Gen-Z Nigerians DESPERATELY Want The Older Generations To Know

    Gen-Z is a name given to people born between the years of 1996-2015. We asked some Gen-Z Nigerians, to tell us 11 things they want the older generation Nigerians to know.

    Amina, 21

    Shut up, listen, and mind the business that pays you.

    Ada, 19

    You are always complaining that we like to follow trends and cannot think for ourselves, yet here you are having children for clout, and just because your mates had them too.

    Tolu, 17

    Why are you so afraid of change? Your way hasn’t worked so far, so why not try something else.

    Kunle, 19

    Your inability to fulfil your dreams are all on you. Just because you wanted to be a lawyer and it did not work out, does not mean you should force that rubbish on me. Please.

    Lillian, 20

    Why did you do us dirty like this? You are always complaining that we are not doing anything, but here we are living in the mess you left for us. Why do you keep demanding we fix what you broke? You had free education, scholarships, good civil service jobs that came with pension etc, yet somehow, how Nigeria is today is our fault? Don’t kill me please.

    Eno, 16

    You need to learn how to raise your children, because you seem to forget that the times are changing.

    Zainab, 19

    Please, older Nigerian women should stop glorying suffering in the name of marriage. You need to stop pretending the patriarchy is good to you. It’s not.

    Tobi, 18

    Please, less pressure on us. For everything. To get good grades and marry and all of that nonsense. We are here for a good time and not a long time.

    Chioma, 19

    See a therapist. You have a lot of childhood trauma to unpack. Know this, and know peace.

    Emeka, 18

    Why are you all so pretentious? All you people do is lie to one another, and lie to us too hoping we would not know you’re lying.

    Ahmed, 20

    Relax, you don’t know everything.
