Flashback: Landphones And "Telephone" Numbers by ddjay: 4:48pm On Mar 02, 2017 |
Those good old days when your phone was at home and you call people mostly in the morning before 7:30am and in the evening as from 4/5pm because nobody will be at home during the day (because of school and work), or you may have to call at weekends. picture 1 looks like my Oldmans first phone in the 80s with the telephone number 01-610084 while picture 2 looks like the second landphone with the number 01-616162. NB dont mind my assumption of the pics, i cant find the real pictures add yours 2 Likes 3 Shares

Lol this reminds me of 1991 when I visited my uncle in Lagos. He had that land phone (1st pic) in his sitting room, so one of my Aunts who was on London called and she wanted to talk to me . I was reading a novel (ogboju ode ninu Igbo Irunmole by D.O Fagunwa ) beside the phone table when the strange sound of the phone rang lol I jump up and I wanted to run out of the sitting room bfre our housemaid call me back that its the phone that was ringing , she picked the call lol and behold the caller wanted to speak with me. I was panic when she gave the phone to me and when. I picked and say "hello' for the first time I heard "Bawo ni mosco aunty e lo nsoro lati ilu oyinbo" guess what I did I prostrated and say in Jenifa's voice "Mummy eku ojo meta o,Se daada ni eyin ati awon oyinbo wa gegebi emi na se Wa loni' After the call, the housemaid and everybody in the house were making mock of me. No b my fault sa, I grew up in village 184 Likes 8 Shares |

Most of Nairalanders here were not born during the era. So it will amaze them seeing the phone. This was the era we usually patronised NITEL. In our house, you dared not touch it. That old man will pluck your ears. Thank God for Obasanjo who introduced GSM, the Man who brought civilization to Nigeria in area of telecommunication. That's why we need to join the rest of the world to celebrate our ICON, the living Legend Irunmale ti n mu goldberg: OBJ @ 80 7 Likes |
