Laughing my gorgeous ass off @ fufu and stone phone . Nigeria!!

Hey Fufu? oh mine. heyyy. but fufu no dey fit make calls.

@showbobo

@ kay-baba

Egbon ma binu, but o go gan sha.

is this anoda method of duping people?

Showbobo, u think so.

sorry about ur fufu fone,
i know of someone who wanted to buy an N70 for 35k at computer village, that was early this yr. after paying for the fone, he left with excitement only for him to board a bus and open his fone pack, he found a CANOE soap in it.
that was probably the most expensive canoe soap ever

Ha ha haaaaaaaaaa
well as 4 me this is not d 1st time of hear of such.
1 of my friend once told of me of a similar story that a guy bought phone from that same C.V
only 4 d seller to change to wrap it 4 him in a handkerchief so that d 'police' will not see him
but when he3 got outside what he saw was just a B-29 soap
wonders can never end in dis we naija

Yeeepah! 35k for 1 canoe soap plus phone pack. Well,i guess he had 2 pay extra 4 d packaging.(he he he). Yoruba go say - 'oro buruku pelu erin - meaning evil talk mixed wt lafta'

In as much as this is funny, we should all learn to stay clear of second hand goods; they are often stolen material.

Ok, what happend to me sometime wasn't fufu, it was when I changed dollars to Naira about 3 years ago.

There was this guy that had the best offer, inshort, it seemed he was ready to take any amount for exchange.

I gave him my dollars and he gave me his Naira. He counted it while I watched, it was complete. I counted myself and discovered it wasn't complete. He collected it, added the balance and counted again and gave me. I counted and it wasn't complete again. We did this over again about 4 times before I decieded that it should be complete now. I took my money home and discovered it was short by  a lot of Naira!
I learnt to go to a Bureau De Change and do things properly afterwards.

Cheap things are always most expensive.

sorry oooooooo

kaybaba, sorry about that becos your story is funny. cheers!!!

This is funny but pathetic, it also happened to my friend (who is from equatorial Guinea) in Ghana before, he went to a main market in Accra to search for a phone and a guy approached him with a motorola L6, after negotiating with him he agreed to pay 400,000 Cedis (about 5,600 naira). The guy wrap it and gave it to my friend, the guy hurried away and while my friend was leavung the spot he opened the wrapper only to find a soap cut in shape of a phone.

yes its not just a Nigerian thing .it happens almost everywhere anywhere.

here in ivory coast they packet things ranging from stone,soap,futu _{their type of fufu} to what have you all in the name of phone.i think the bottom line is people desisting from overly cheap and second hand things. its the greedy that end up being cheated 

I'M GETTING TIRED OF THIS THREAD.

, by the time we all resolve to stop buying stolen phones, then

this kind of incident will not occur again

imagine buying N72 for 4k

even if na ur papa get nokia

easy come easy go

if we stop buying all these second hand phone it may even help reduce the rate of phone snatching esp in lagos

take heart my guy and shine your eye next time
