See ehn, if the
heat in Nigeria doesn’t kill you, the expensive data rates will.
There are many
struggles for android users: bad camera quality and high data rates. IOS users
are heavily compensated, at least if you spend your whole money on data, your
megapixels will console you.
When I was still
phone hunting, I just wanted to get a Blackberry. Blackberry plans are very
affordable, you subscribe for the monthly plan of your service provider and you
wont soak garri after.

| When you think of the garri you soaked and nobody liked your pics on IG |
My issue with
android phones was that it was too expensive to maintain. Just open YouTube peren, Airtel will just send message
that ‘75% of your data bundle has been exhausted’’
 |
| when Airtel sends that message, I am just there like oversabi, who sent you? |
My issue was that
I was using my data like a rich kid. In school we were entitled to 4GB data per
month, and for some reason my brain has refused to remind me that those days are
long gone. So I was always on BN, opening Who Wore It Best, Red Carpet Fab
Looks, or I was on Instagram struggling for likes, liking other people’s
pictures hoping they would return the favor (they didn’t) or laughing at Oluwakaponeski’s videos.
After 2 weeks my
2gb data had run down. If I continued at that rate, I would be spending 4k per
month on data. On whose account biko?
Am I DJ Cuppy?
So imagine my joy
when Airtel sent me a message about their new ‘WTFB’ bundle for Whatsapp,
Twitter, Facebook and BBM, it would cost me just 200naira.
I told everyone
who cared to listen; I preached the gospel of WTFB like John the Baptist in the
wilderness.
What I didn’t know
was that WTFB had its limitations, you can use these various social media
platforms but you won’t see pictures (the humiliation).
So you are
chatting with someone and you can’t see their faces, you are literally chatting
with bubble heads, it’s a terrible something.
The best part of
WTFB is that you can actually open Instagram, but you won’t see picture (I am
actually crying).
Because I am
somehow, me sef I will just be liking your pictures away depending on how deep
your quotes are or I just depend on the good pictures I have seen in the past i.e.
If you have a Noble Igwe reputation, I just like away, I don’t hold back).

| What my IG looks like with WTFB |
There are times I
just tell my friend, ‘what’s on your dp, send it to biko!!!’(See I am not proud of myself).
Did I tell you
that with WTFB you can’t use your web browser so I just tell people to send me
screenshots of whatever link they want me to see.
 |
| UB sent me these screenshots. |
This android life
has not been easy, offing data everywhere, logging in and out of Instagram (if
you see me liking pictures on the gram or commenting and tagging friends,
foggerit, I have seen free wifi).
Please don’t leave
me like this, you people can relate to this struggle abi? It’s not only me bah?
Answer me nah!!
Don't forget to leave a comment ,they make me happy!!
