The Most Frustrating People to Be Out With When You Want to Have Fun.

You’ve made the decision to go out to party. That’s fantastic. However, if you truly want to have a good time at whatever event you attend, avoid going out with any of these people because they will frustrate you in some way.

Couples

If you go out with a couple, you’ll be sorry. They only know how to annoy PDAs and exchange saliva whenever they get the chance. I didn’t invite you out for a dry hump; I invited you out for drinks.

Ambiverts 

At the very least, introverts prefer to stay at home. Ambiverts have on and off days, and they don’t always realize they don’t want to be out until they are. If you’re out with an ambivert on a day when they want to stay in, God help you. They will irritate you by constantly acting as if they are being punished. They will not even attempt to have fun; instead, they will sit in a corner and press their phones. Meanwhile, they’re the ones who asked you to accompany them. Chisom, we just arrived; stop asking if we can go.

9-5ers

9-5ers are full-blown party animals. It’s like they channel all the stress from their work into energy for turn up. When you go out with them, you’ll be exhausted within one hour. If you’re out with bankers, architects or lawyers to be precise, just be ready to stay out till 5 a.m. They don’t know when to call it a night, even when they have work the following day.

People who live with their parents 

They’ll try to include you in one stressful lie or scheme so that they can be out. When they’re finally out, they’re paranoid about getting caught. Can’t even post them on your insta story in case one grand cousin’s sister’s daughter accidentally finds your page. Omo, Tunde, this isn’t what I signed up for. Then there are the ones with 9 p.m. curfews, who try to make you leave early too. You and who? Do I leave with your parents?

People who live far away

They always have to leave early because their house is far from civilisation. You sef should know better than to invite somebody from FESTAC out at night. If you want them to stay longer, you have to give them a place to sleep.

Gym buffs

Latest 7 p.m., they’re heading back home because they have to go to the gym the next morning. And while they’re out, they won’t eat or drink certain things because it’s not part of their diet. And they’ll judge you while you’re eating your shawarma and fries at 11 p.m. As if you’re on the diet with them. 

Influencers

All they want to do is record videos of every single thing that’s happening, all in the name of content. Instead of properly partying, they’re shooting “Come turn up with me on a Friday night” vlogs. If you give them the chance, they’ll carry tripod to the club.

It’s Time for Your Delusional Girl Era, Ladies!

Being a delusional girl means choosing to ignore facts and live in your own reality. When you reach your delusional stage, you believe that your wildest fantasies are not only possible, but also normal. Here’s why you should try it today!

Men do it, so why not?

Men are constantly told that they have “audacity,” which allows them to apply for jobs they aren’t qualified for and demand attention from women they don’t know. Why can’t we do the same?

Reality is hard

You’re a woman on Earth, so the odds are stacked against you. It’s over if you’re now poor or queer. Why then do you want to be trapped in this reality that constantly tries to frustrate you? Be delusory; escape into the part of your mind where everything works in your favor.

It’s fun 

Sometimes, alter your reality for shits and giggles. If you say you’re a princess, who’s going to check you? 

What has being realistic done for you? 

In all the years you’ve been realistic, what have you achieved? What has the realism actually done? Try a new approach to life and watch everything change. 

Heal your inner child

When you were younger, you had a wider imagination and actually believed in the impossible. Entering your delusional girl era connects you to that part of yourself. It’ll heal your inner child. 

Extra motivation

If you’re convinced the universe exists simply to cater to your every need, and that everything works together for you, you’d be gingered to do the impossible. Why? Because the universe won’t let you down. 

Improve your mental health 

If you’re too busy altering your own reality, what time will you have to be depressed and anxious? The answer is none.

Tinubu’s ‘Bala blu’ is used as an exam question at a Nigerian university (Photos)

A Nigerian university has included a gaffe by All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Ahmed Tinubu in its examination questions, asking students about his ‘bala blu bulaba’ remark.

Recall that in November 2023, Tinubu, at an engagement in Imo, slurrily said “a town hall, different from “balablu-blu-blu-bulaba.”

The misspeak from the aspiring Nigerian leader became a ready instrument of humour among young Nigerians online who oppose Tinubu’s presidential ambition.

SUGGESTION: You can get News updates directly on WhatsApp by clicking “HERE” and joining our group.

Nasarawa State University’s Keffi Center for Continuing Studies’ Department of Mass Communication included the question in their exams, asking students to relate it to their course material.

“‘Using the social media trending sarcastic statement: A Townhall, Different from Bala-Blu Blu-Blu Bula-Ba’,justify social judgement theory,” question 1 of the second semester examination for sophomore Mass Communication students of the Nasarawa State-owned university, read.

Per encyclopedia.com, the social judgement theory explains how attitudes are cognitively represented, the psychological processes involved in assessing persuasive communications, and the conditions under which communicated attitudes are either accepted or rejected.

The flag bearer of the ruling APC continues to evoke public concerns about his mental fitness to govern Africa’s most populous nation, ahead of next month’s poll where he will square of against co-septuagenarian, Atiku Abubakar of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party; Peter Obi of Labour Party and 15 other candidates.

His critics relentlessly hoist totems of his many incoherent and slurry statements as evidence of his unsuitability for Nigeria’s top job.

Tinubu, however, has repeatedly dismissed criticisms about his frail health, saying being Nigerian president is not grave digging that requires his physical strength.

Mykhailo Mudryk is presented to fans after Chelsea signed him ahead of Arsenal.

The 22-year-old winger committed to the London club in an 8-year, €100 million agreement. According to sources speaking to ESPN, the package includes a fixed cost of €70 million and an additional €30 million in add-ons, matching the Ukrainian club’s asking price for the sale of the 22-year-old.

Mykhailo Mudryk

Mudryk has previously stated on social media that he prefers to play for Premier League leaders Arsenal.

Arsenal reportedly made their third offer for Mudryk on Friday, January 13. The bid was believed to comprise around €70m up front with what one source described as “significant add-ons,” although the overall package was still thought to be short of Shakhtar’s €100m valuation.

He looked poised to sign for London rivals Arsenal before a last-minute intervention from Chelsea’s recruitment head Paul Winstanley and co-owner Behdad Eghbali on Saturday, January 14, with the pair flying to Turkey to negotiate the deal.

Chelsea offered Mudryk a better wage package and a longer contract than what Arsenal tabled. Insiders also said the €30m in bonuses involved in the Chelsea deal are easily achievable.

“We are delighted to welcome Mykhailo to Chelsea,”Todd Boehly, Chelsea chairman said. Behdad Eghbali, the co-controlling owner, added “He’s a hugely exciting talent who we believe will be a terrific addition to our squad both now and in the years to come. He will add further depth to our attack and we know he’ll get a very warm welcome to London.”

The 22-year-old was in attendance for Chelsea’s game against Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge today, January 15, and he was presented to fans.

Speaking to the club website, Mudryk said;

“I’m so happy to sign for Chelsea. This is a huge club, in a fantastic league and it is a very attractive project for me at this stage of my career. I’m excited to meet my new team-mates and I’m looking forward to working and learning under Graham Potter and his staff.”

The Ukrainian footballer is now the fifth arrival at Stamford Bridge in the January transfer window.
