Dont know wat dis card was used for but older guys told me it was for the phone booth. Always saw people call at the booths but was too young and ignorant to observe. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Used it my first two years in UNIBEN. I used to buy my own card from Lagos then and wait on the line at the Faculty of Agriculture to make a call. Phone operators used to charge N5 per unit. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

The old man bought me one in primary 5. He wanted to know where we were, per time, outside of the school gates. The crime rate in Lagos back then was off the charts. Riots, civil liberties protests against the military government, people lynched and burned robbery suspects right on the streets. Gory stuff. Kept mine in the fridge to replenish the units. I can't remember if it did or not just now. 6 Likes 1 Share |
