As Nigerians, every year comes with its unique set of doings — trends, attitudes, and outright shenanigans that we embrace with fervor, only to collectively reject the next year.

As 2024 takes its final bow, it’s time to reflect on all the things we’ve endured this year and say, “E don do!” to some of these antics as we prepare for the new year. 

Nigerians, it’s time to detoxify our habits, trends, and drama before we usher in 2025. So grab a chair, my friend, and let’s spill the tea on things we’re leaving behind in 2024.

Village People Excuses

Let’s face it, not every missed opportunity or delayed success is because of “village people.” Sometimes, it’s your procrastination, laziness, or lack of planning. 

In 2025, can we hold ourselves a little more accountable without dragging an innocent third cousin in your hometown into it?

BBL Gone Wrong

Ladies, I understand the need to “enhance,” but if you’re going to do it, at least consult a professional. 

No more shapes that look like unfinished homework. Let’s leave the botched Brazilian Butt Lift trend in 2024 and embrace self-love or well-done work.

Overpriced Wedding Aso-Ebi

Ah, wedding committees of Nigeria, can we talk? How did we let aso-ebi prices become a cross we must carry? Paying ₦200k to wear the same lace and gele as 50 other guests? 

In 2025, no more guilt tripping yourself into buying aso ebi that can’t attend the next family function. We’re wearing ankara from home and saving our coins. If you vex, don’t invite us.

5-Hour Traffic Rants

Lagosians, this one is for you! If you’re stuck in traffic for five hours every day, must we all hear about it? From “Third Mainland is a parking lot” to “Ikorodu people, how do you survive?”—it’s time to retire these rants.

In 2025, let’s channel that energy into finding shortcuts (or even relocating—hello Ibadan!).

Oversabi WhatsApp Group Admins

Those WhatsApp family group admin who won’t let us rest! From endless broadcasts about End Times to unsolicited health advice (“Drink salt water to cure headache”), 2024 saw their powers hit an all-time high. But in 2025, we say: Admin, shift!

Let’s leave behind the long messages that start with “If you don’t forward this, you hate your family.” We love them, but enough is enough.

“Content” That Should’ve Stayed Private

Not every argument with your boo deserves to end on TikTok. Not every private moment needs to grace the ‘gram. And not every sextape leak deserves a retweet. 

Let’s leave behind the “He ghosted me but here’s our WhatsApp chats” videos. Some stories are better left between you and your phone.

Internet Prophets

We’ve had enough of “If you don’t say amen, your blessings will be delayed!” posts. If God wanted to bless us, do you think He’d need retweets or comments? 

Enough with  the emotionally manipulative posts  Let’s focus on authentic spirituality abeg

2025 is our chance to reset and refire as a people. Let’s leave the baggage, the drama, and the unnecessary noise behind. 

And if you insist on dragging these things into 2025, just know we’ll not only listen but we’ll be here to judge you—with our full chest because you don’t use to hear word.

Cheers to a better, brighter, and drama-free year ahead!

  6. Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell
    to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and
    it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL
    I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!

  17. I am really enjoying the theme/design of your web site.

    Do you ever run into any internet browser compatibility
    issues? A couple of my blog readers have complained about my
    site not working correctly in Explorer but looks
    great in Firefox. Do you have any tips to help fix this problem?
