@ihe. Its a relief that therez at least one person out there who sees my point. Nigerians, & Africans generally, throw away millions of naira every year on frivolities like this. Ask some of them to invest & they couldnt give a hoot. Its no wonder our countries remain backward in the things that REALLY matter. |

@momo. Thanks. I understand. Its part of what I'm "griping" about. People are often pressured to stretch themselves to attend occassions like these, most times are also xpected to "perform", & often feel guilty when not able to. We burn time, money, energy & so much more on these our ceremonies.
If it were possible, I'd be somewhere sleeping all through d ceremony myself. My body's worn out! But... thatz wishful thinking

@AYA: E don reach time to do naming ceremony you don change to philosopher.
True talk we spend too much on celebrations. When mine does come I will name him/her right from the hospital; why should a baby be nameless for 7 days. Some tradition indeed!!! Anyway, AYA you now know what to do when the next baby comes!!!

@brym. I tire o! We've been calling her "Baby" since. At times, I just laugh. My bros, I talked too during my wedding o. We went 2 d registry (1st wedding), did traditional (2nd wedding), did church (3rd wedding). Just imagine. I wedded d same gal thrice (without breaking up once!). Naija 4 show.
Hey! Did I hear you say "next baby"? No way. My wife & I have closed d baby making chapter of our long life together. PS: We paid 35k for delivery; & my son's school just increased tuition fee to 40k per term! Why would I want to multiply those expenses? Thanks, but no thanks. :|

@ihe. Whizkid is an Esatonian from Palghar, India, & has over 500 posts in Esato. Guess he was just soliciting with us on this thread.
@All: Anybody done anything interesting with their mobile phone & line lately?

@Angel: Pls dont die of lafta o! Infact, dont die of anything. A burial ceremony will cause greater commotion than a naming ceremony; and believe me, if I hear that word "ceremony" mentioned one more time, I will scream  . Xpecting your call jare!

@ AYA, so how did the naming ceremony go now? Come to think of it, that was the perfect forum to express your opinion on excessive expenses on celebrations, did you give them a feel? OR your mama dey there?
Sent a text to your madam, hope she received it? I also sent you a picture message. Since I have not received a delivery report on my phone I assume that the message is still in Marina Post Office no thanks to glo with their slow delivery. |
