Jos girls have grown used to it... now, runs girls charge extra: Take it or leave it... which ofcourse leaves you no choice.

The Jos Plateau is the largest plateau in Nigeria and owing to its elevation, Jos is the coldest city in Nigeria (about the temperature of California, USA) for example, the temperature here now us about 15°C and it has gone south of 10°C at a point in this winter (Yes it is better referred to as winter, this one don pass ordinary harmattan) Because of this cold weather, people usually does some things that would be considered wild by Lagos standards. I present to you below, a few of
them.

1. Boiling water to brush teeth or do dishes:

Some people actually boil the water they wanted to use for brushing Their teeth or do their dishes because ordinary water will be freezing cold and coupled with the freezing breeze is a no no

2. Ladies wearing socks on ANYTHING they wore:

It is not uncommon seeing 'Big girls' wearing socks on office suits and skirts, even after dressing for an owanbe party, socks and gloves were freely worn on the Ankara and lace attires. In short, their is no dressing that's weird here, anything goes
PS: Weird dressing doesn't exclude men too o! I saw a man yesterday that wore a sweater over his shirt before putting on the suit jacket

3. Purposely Staying under the sun:

You'll see people intentionally staying under the sun as soon as it comes out just to feel the warmth of the greatest source of energy.

4. Bathing with boiled water:

I dare say that there is nobody I mean NOBODY in this Jos that has the effrontery to bath with ordinary water as history has it that some people actually froze to their death when they tried it in times past.

5. Putting on electric stove in the bedroom:

because of the unusual cold, some people will put on the electric stove at night just so they can be warm throughout the night.

6. Sleeping with more than two pieces of clothing on:

Its a common thing if people slept dressing like an astronaut, I mean with two trousers, two shirts, one Cardigan, head warmer and hear muffs, Hand gloves and socks all under a cover cloth/duvet! Lil!

If you're staying on the Jos or Taraba plateau please add yours

Zaria has crazy temperatures as well. When its hot, you'll think ur in the kalahari desert and when its cold, its like being in Alaska.

drnoel:

Under 10°C and u are complaining that people are freezing. Are u well at all? We all know water does not freeze till temperature drops to under 4°C and below. U 4get there are places were temperature is -4°C and they are not complaining of freezing. I walk out side with just singlets at 9°C so explain yasef? How can 10°C be so cold?

I challenge you on number 4. I actually dated a lady who baths with cold water during this season in Jos and kaduna.

She was born during harmattan in Kaduna which shares the same temperatures with Jos.

Larrylarex:
I'm serious o! You know this place is like living inside a freezer, you're cold and the water is super cold. In fact some people will boil the water they want to drink not tea o! Ordinary water or even pure water sef, they'll boil it with the nylon then drink afterwards ... see, you can't understand unless you're here
