Reactions as man shares experience with neighbour
Nigerians stormed the comments section on the X app to react to his experience.
Tolu Akin said:
“A neighbour once borrowed my then flatmate electric iron and when he returned it,we discovered that the plastic body was burnt. The neighbour had the audacity to tell us he made use of it as stove iron when he urgently wanted to iron and there was no light.”
Prince Somorin said:
“I allowed neighbors to fetch water until one started to fill his Storex tank with it.”
Abolaji Rasaq said:
“Someone put a tap outside his new home for neighbors to fetch water. They stop fetching the water after sometimes. They said the man is using their destinies.”
Victor Ossai said:
“Just look for a 0.5a or 1a circuit breaker and connect it within to the extension. Once there’s a higher load output it would trip off the circuit flow. That was they will be guided.”
Crystal Abekee added:
“A friend created a socket outside for his neighbour. Mind you, he’s using inverter and sometimes generator. His neighbours started using iron and went as far as using hotplate. Egbon disconnected it with immediate effect. Sometimes, Nigerians aren’t good people.”
