The fact that black people are amazing in every aspect of life that exists isn’t news. During the ongoing Rio Olympics, several black athletes have slayed so hard, these hashtags come to mind: #BlackGirlMagic#BlackMagic#BlackIsMagic#BlackPeopleSlay!
1. Simone ‘Superhuman’ Biles
There are not enough words to explain why this amazing athlete has to top the list. She is the world’s most dominant gymnast and she’s so great she has a signature move nobody in the world has ever achieved named after her, The Biles.
Her performance during 10,000 metre race where she broke world and Olympic records has been described as the greatest athletic performance ever seen. She was the first athlete to put Africa on the map at the Rio Olympics when she won the gold medal for the race.
4. Wayde van Niekerk
Trained by his 74-year-old great grandmother, Wayde not only won South Africa’s first gold medal, but also broke a 17-year-old world record during the 400m men’s race. His ability to break a world record from the 8th lane was so amazing, Usain Bolt came all the way to congratulate him.
5. Jemima Jelagat Sumgong
Despite the fact that a strange man who was later arrested tried to disrupt the marathon race, Jemima still gunned for gold and won after completing the 40Km marathon race after 2 hours and 24 minutes.
In a moment he thought was the end of his Rio 2016 Olympic dream, Mo Farah tripped and fell during the 10,000 metre race. But rather than give up, this British athlete clawed his way from the bottom and still won the race, like a boss!
A working bank account is one important part of a Nigerian’s life.
And to be honest, the heavier the bank account, the more legit the licence to “glo up”. Here are 10 things every Nigerian can relate to when the money days go south:
1. On pay day.
New balance, who this?
2. Your bank account when you decide to splurge on that PS4 console you’ve been eyeing.
I got you, bro!
3. Then the long monthly shopping list pops up.
Na wa oh! Someone can’t pretend to be rich sef.
4. When you actually start buying the things on the shopping list.
Chisos, why are all the zeroes reducing?
5. Every debit alert brings serious heartache and torture.
I feel it in my bones.
6. It’s only 15th of the month and things are already not smiling.
Lunch is a luxury, biscuit and pure water will do.
7. Your bank account when you think of buying ordinary Shawarma.
Are you even alright?
8. When you think about all the unnecessary things you bought during the month.
I’m not crying, sand entered my eye.
9. When the money actually finishes and everything goes red.
Fix it, Father.
10. When that huge credit alert comes in at the end of the month.
My glo up can now begin!
