What he is saying is your phone fit cast you

tobechi20:
The brand, colour, ringtone, case and wallpaper will give a slight indication of your personality. Rarely, you will find someone who will fake ringtone, colour or wallpaper or phone to please others.
When you are talking to someone on phone, you cut yourself from the world around you. You mind is filled with the caller’s voice and the conversation. In reality, there are lot of people around you who listen to your conversation. This gives away how loud or soft you are, your seriousness and humor, your perceptions and above all, your personal and work-related things from the call.
Ditto when you are instant-messaging someone. When people secretly see you when you are typing, or the content in the notification messages or how your respond (irritatingly or quickly), it all gives lot of your personal information.
The kind of books you read in Kindle or the music you listen.
Your taste based on some of the photos you take or the OTT or Youtube videos you watch.
You social media profiles when you are updating something.
This is just tip of the iceberg.

Smartphone is like thumbprint.

If it were a person, it is probably the only person where you are completely yourself to it.

A person who follows you secretly in trains, buses and streets and listens to your calls or sees you messages from behind will obtain enough information about your family, work, affairs.

And all this when you just using your phone. It is unimaginable when you lose it.

I have known my driver for past five year.

We never interacted much with each other as I am always in my own world.

One day, my phone battery died and I asked his phone to make an urgent call. As I was speaking, I got some message notifications on the screen.

As they came one by one, within minutes, I could get that he was married and he was having an affair outside marriage.

Let me clarify you before you continue....Yes because you love naira marley songs and used it as a ringing tone, you're a potential Yahoo boy, you're not yet but you love the lifestyle that Naira Marley is preaching about through his songs...Ask yourself this question, before Naira Marley came to limelight, are there not celebrities and people of great influence living the lifestyle he is exhibiting today?.... definitely they were, I know you will look for a hinge to lean on (choice)...Yes, you have choice, likewise Naira Marley and he chose the lifestyle. There are situations and events in one's life that influences their choice, always pray not to be put to the test through those situations, because you will be surprised whom you have turned into, just like a fish in the ocean, once you have swim in the first time, coming out is by God's grace...
So my friend we are all potential Yahoo boys and girls awaiting to be tested by life changing events and situations, only then can one say otherwise. You think Jesus was a fool when he told his Apostles at the garden of Gethsemane " Stay at alert, pray not to be put to the test"....
Listen to Naira Marley "Bad Influence", you will understand all I said concerning choice and situations.

In a country like Nigeria where data is scarce, they have every right to search your phone. The only problem with them is not been professional about it and doing it for greed and self gain.

tarantino1:


You are not making sense.

They have every right. Who gave them that right? Stop talking from both sides of your mouth.

freshkpomo:


The last part of your write-up gives a summary of you because if your hands were clean you won't be scared of been searched.

Like I said, they only do it unprofessionally. What is wrong with an officer walking to you, showing you his ID and having to check things? As far as the society is concerned, when bad things strike we be like Wey police Wey soldier, but we sometimes frustrate their efforts.

Nigeria have no data and these guys rely on things like this to get info. You want warrant, why not also ask for warrant for stop and search? Una go dey form like say Na America una dey. My only problem with them idiotic force is them extorting people as yahoo boys.


In my area in Benin, this was same way they caught a serial cultist involved in killings by checking his phone and the dead victims will finally get justice . So stop saying rubbish like you are in America.

I am still searching for the claim WHAT POLICE LOOK For and the search is in vain. The topic is very misleading.

tobechi20:


Let me help you. Police look out for the

1) colour of your phone; colourful phones or phone casing indicates one who takes interest in his appearance or public perception. Is stylist. Extrovert

2) Cracked/ Rough phone: A careless person or one who is not financially buoyant to make phone repairs

3) ringtone/ songs in playlist: Fast beat song indicates an extrovert or party lover. R and B indicates introvert. Depressed person

4)
