A Nigerian lady has taken the internet by surprise after revealing that her cousin, scheduled to travel to the UK on a 5 p.m. flight, left for the airport as early as 7 a.m.
She shared this on her X (formerly Twitter) page, sparking widespread amusement.
In her post, she included laughing emojis while recounting the unusual situation, highlighting the fact that her cousin left for the airport ten hours before his evening flight.
Her post read: “My cousin is traveling to the UK tonight. The flight is at 5 p.m., but he left for the airport around 7 a.m. 😂😂.”
This revelation quickly attracted comments, with many users humorously attributing her cousin’s early departure to an attempt to “avoid village people” or to prevent any unforeseen circumstances that might delay his journey to the UK.
See some reactions below:
@chi_di_nso: “No be Nigeria again.. Traffic can be something else.”
@GodAbeg40x: “Is it not possible for you people to keep things private until it cools off or passes?”
@Xperience_Snr: “You even pin the tweet. The kind of family members we constantly pray against.”
@addel_cares: “You won’t blame him, Nigerian traffic can be frustrating I remembered almost missing my flight in 2018 because I left my house 3 hours to my flight omo it was not funny that day but thank God for today.”
@Alphazee10: “The reason for leaving early has been defeated… he probably didn’t want anyone greeting him and getting information on his travels. Now you’ve let the whole world know, if anything happens and he blames you he will be right. Learn to keep things private until everything cools off. Respect village people!!”
@gbolade__: “Person go think say he don outsmart village people just for someone to cast him online
@Neo_Semoko: “Lols I mean even lounges at departure airports only allow access 4hours before flight; lols UK cannot miss him by any means necessary.”
