You can always add some of the most irritating(or weirdly stupid intending to be funny) comments you ever seen by Nigerians on a social site.

For a month now, I have been a bit frequent on Nairaland and other Nigerian websites and I noticed a trend quite ridiculous. And maybe childish(or fun).

And it is: First-to-comment.

Why should anyone just hit on a thread or blog and type 'First to comment' or 'I was here, space booked' and then zoom off.

I was just reading a post on linda-ikeji and the following comments were folks fighting over first-to-comment. In fact, the entire comments on the blog post was on this and very disconnected to the original post.

Abeg o, is there any kind of reward attach to these things. I go like know o.

As always, my most favorite people on earth(i.e Nigerians) will still likely type first-to-comment, space-booked, end-time-things on this thread.

Or even someone will quote this entire post and then comment with a 'K' or full stop.

Another is very popular on facebook now, people eagerly rushing to type 'Amen' on an obviously fake prayer or testimony.

You will even posts like: I have this tape of a woman caught sleeping with her boss, type 'Yes' to have in your boss. Boom, 5000 comments of boys and girls wanting to have the tape.

When I was a kid, we parade Nigerians as some of the finest(or brightest) people but this is not reflecting in our online behaviour.

Anyone can smell a Nigerian comment on any website-foreign or local.

Ehen another one is a case of a jambite rushing to correct grammar even when its not necc. or can be ignored.

See what Goodluck Jonathan has done to my people.

P.S.: I safely put this in the Joke section. Not exactly because I'm trying to be funny or the post is funny in fact. Make nobody attack me o.
