See, as Nigerian children, we were taught that when a visitor is around, we speak most impeccably; your mouth must not leak or spill family issues anyhow.No talk of your siblings, parents, neighbours, etc loosely. Like privacy and minding your business, it is evidently in the past. By now you may or may not have seen some of the most hilarious tweets this month coming as a result of Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg’s visit to Nigeria. It is almost like the tweets had been in peoples Twitter drafts since forever and thankfully, the right time presented itself to post them. After Zuckerberg hit Yaba and the pictures surfaced on the internet, my fellow Naija people threw caution in the air and went in!!!
