Patronizing Nigerian Artisans is like playing Russian Roulette, a game of chance where an empty revolver gun is loaded with half of its bullets and fired. It’s either you get shot or the gun just blanks.

When hiring Nigerian artisans, there’s a 50% chance that you would not like the outcome of that transaction. Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of great artisans but many of them can become a pain in the a** with their shoddy jobs, lack of punctuality and constant lies.  If you have an artisan with a knack for excellence and consistency, you need to hold on to them like your life depends on it because there are only 4 or 5 of them left in Nigeria.

Given my experience, I can provide you with a long list of Nigerian Artisans that are sure to disappoint you, but let’s start with 5.

At the very top of my list with a first-class degree in disappointment is none other than yours truly: 

Tailors

During the holidays, I wanted to make some new clothes for my husband and surprise him. I was already daydreaming of how I would surprise him but boy, did I have my hopes dashed.

You know that thing they say about Nigerian tailors and clothes in December, I experienced it firsthand and it was painful! I am the type of customer who doesn’t know how to complain when I get poor service, but rest assured that I would never patronize that vendor again. 

Tailors would break your heart more than your significant other. They lie, hide and evade all your efforts to reach them so easily. I’m sure every Nigerian has had a taste of tailors’ wahala before.

From what I ordered vs what I got to failing to meet up with agreed timelines, messing up your fabric (getting clothes burnt) and keeping back a bit of the fabric for themselves, the list is actually endless. The painful part is that when they use your materials to make their own clothes, they make them so well and look beautiful in them.

Mechanics

When it comes to lying, Nigerian Mechanics are second only to the devil. Once you hear “AHHHH!” when the mechanic is under your vehicle, just forget it, he is going to bill you! They never find only one fault with a car, it must be at least 3 faults!

I can’t forget their aversion to permanent fixes. They would use things like palm oil, eba, and even noodles as replacements for actual car repair necessities after charging you for those things. When they fix your car they must test it around town and even use it to carry babes. Your wife will see your car in a restaurant, and start questioning you, not knowing that your favorite mechanic went to enjoy life a bit. 

Nigerian Mechanics do not understand the gravity of their job. While a shoddy job done by a tailor could lead to a fashion embarrassment, a shoddy job from a mechanic could lead to loss of life.

Plumbers

Plumber gees; they trick you that they’re about to do good work by always complaining about the job done by the plumber before them. With all these assertions, you would assume that once they fix the leak, you would never see their face again, but no. They fixed the leak but you might need to change the whole pipe by next week. They work only when they want to and they are always busy with ‘outside work,’ meaning, they dictate when they would be available. You can never bank on a Nigerian plumber to get to you on time.

Electricians

Electricians are the star boys of artisans, they always work as though they are invisible and they are most powerful when they are fixing generators or reconnecting NEPA light. Gen fixing is something they never get right, they would fix it today and next week you would be ringing their phone. When they fix the wiring of a house, you can’t even trust that the ground won’t shock you.

Dispatch Rider

These guys aren’t really artisans but they must feature here. Don’t tell them to deliver food, especially jollof rice and turkey. If they are kind, you might get only the rice without the turkey or half of both and you’re expected to be understanding because “country hard.”

They are also notorious for arriving late. So if you want to order food, you need to drink garri first because before they arrive, you might die of hunger. They don’t have patience so once they arrive, they expect you to rush out and get your property.

One thing I’ve learnt to do whenever a dispatch rider has a delivery for me, is to examine the item (edible or not) before they leave, to avoid unnecessary stories.         

Nigerian artisans can be very stressful to work with so if you find one that does work with excellence and punctuality, hold on to them like your life depends on it cause it actually might. I wish you good luck.

Wij hebben ideeën en ervaringen uitgewisseld en daar rolde een hele fijne samenwerking uit met als resultaat KamagraShop. Een combinatie van ervaringsdeskundigen en specialisten op het gebied van erectiemiddelen en alles wat daarbij komt kijken. Toen wij na een lange zoektocht naar de geschikte leverancier was het plaatje rond. Wij wilden andere mannen helpen met precies dezelfde problemen en hopen dit te kunnen realiseren. Wij vinden dat wij niet zomaar erectiemiddelen verkopen, maar zelfvertrouwen. U koopt als het ware uw oude vertrouwde ik weer terug.

    In het begin van de 21ste eeuw waren we getuige van een medicatie tegen erectiele disfunctie (ED) dat viraal ging: Viagra werd geprezen als een doeltreffend medicijn voor de behandeling van deze aandoening. Een veel voorkomende en populaire, generieke, variant van Viagra is sildenafil. Sildenafil is te koop bij uw lokale apotheek of bij online farmaceutische platformen. Enkel Pfizer heeft het recht de merknaam Viagra te gebruiken. Generieke medicijnen worden geproduceerd door vele bedrijven: Mylan, Sandoz, Bristol Labs en anderen. Ben je, alle slechte grappen en cheesy reclame buiten beschouwing gelaten, vertrouwd met deze beroemde pil en weet je waar in België je legaal generieke Viagra kan bestellen? Als u echt last heeft van erectiestoornissen raden wij viagra van de Kruidvat NIET aan. Deze pillen gaan u niet verder helpen. Als u graag betere, langere en hardere erecties wilt krijgen raden wij toch aan om erectiepillen te bestellen waar sildenafil in zit. erectiepillen met sildenafil zorgt er toch voor dat de erecties zeker tot 6 uur tot stand blijven. Let er wel op dat u bij een betrouwbare leverancier besteld en niet bij andere kwakzalverij organisaties.
