  • If you’ve been following AFCON, you’ll understand why people consider it the most hilarious football competition ever. Apart from the joy that comes with watching your team win and trolling other teams when they lose, the tweets that AFCON bring are some of the most premium ones to surface Lai Mohammed’s Twitter.

    See for yourself.

    1. Know this and know peace.

    2. Why Ikorodu, FFS?

    3. AFCON defenders are aggressive as hell.

    4. Someone needs to flog that SamB person.

    5. These people should leave us alone.

    6. Salah has played only one match o. See insults!

    7. What do you want them to eat before?

    8. Rude!

    9. Wakanda Forever!

    10. This person knows ball.

    11. “Defender marry am for there!”

    12. Sooner or later, this had to happen, LMAO!

    13. What did Salah do to you people?

    14. Context: Salah is one of the fastest players in the world.

    15. Palpitations upandan. They will drag you if you lose.

  • A lot has happened in this season of BBNaija. We all thought the show was going to be boring in comparison to past seasons, but the housemates have amped up the drama and keep bringing entertainment to our screens. Here are some of our favourite tweets chronicling this week’s events on BBNaija.

    1. Big Brother clearing Maria and defending Angel.

    Please inject this in my veins!. The ”boys will always be boys” statement Maria made in an attempt to slut-shame Angel was quickly dismissed when Biggie came to Angel’s defence. We live for more moments like this on the show.

    2. Saskay vs Sleeping Beauty.

    In a battle between Saskay and Sleeping Beauty, we are very sure Saskay will win. Aurora has nothing on Saskay. Homegirl dey sleep die.

    3. Micheal defending Angel.

    If you pay close attention to the show, you’d have noticed the intense slut-shaming Angel has received from both male and female housemates. Anyway, Angel Micheal came to her defence this week too.

    4. White Money enjoying himself and entertaining the viewers as usual.

    Pere, you’ve heard the man. You have only 24hrs to respond.

    5. Pere’s poor attempt at intimidating White Money.

    The blowout on Monday was a poor attempt at intimidating White Money. Pere needs to explain what he has against everyone’s favourite net-singlet-loving Igbo man.

    6. Cross and Emmanuel trying to figure out Pere’s behaviour.

    Pere’s behaviour was totally silly and uncalled for, so Cross calling him demonic was good content for the viewers. It was refreshing seeing men stand up against the silly behaviour of other men.

    7. The Atlantic ocean is not big enough for all the ships in this house.

    So many ships with no directions. We wonder which one will be the first to go the way of the Titanic.

    8. LOOOOL. Not Big Brother broke-shaming JMK.

    JMK has not brought in as much content as she promised us, but this was a moment worth documenting. We love Big Brother for his witty comebacks this season.

    9. Saga doing something else other than suffocating Nini with love.

    It’s nice seeing Saga having a good time with other housemates. Nini sef needs to rest.

    10. Not Paleficient please (Internal scream).

    Pere and Maria are not exactly good vibes, but this is the funniest one so far.

    11. Jackie and Maria. (Ofcourse, Maria is gossiping)

    Jackie has not really shown us a lot of content. Her body is mad sha and she is a serious gossip.

    5. LMAO everyone and the one that is important to them.

    6. Another Gen Z vs Millennial fight is brewing…

    7. This one is shameful, let us not even lie.

    8. If you get this joke in one take, just go and face the wall.

    9. “Nne, wait make I go bring am from second shop.”

    10. Married men can never catch a break in this life.

    11. If you know, you know.

    12. Loud scream.

  • Last night, we had a really swell time running #BBNaija reunion commentary on our Twitter account. But this is a different and a lot more funny commentary coming from the funniest place on the planet, TwitterNG. Here’s a list of really funny tweets that reveal what Nigerians think about last nights #BBNaijaReunion:

    1. Tochi we are very sorry on Wathoni’s behalf.

    2.Between Kayode and Ka3na; we don’t know who worked harder.

    Ka3na was in the house for 2 weeks but she still managed to work harder than Kayode who was in the house for 72 days.

    3. There was no Indomie available for Eric that’s why.

    https://twitter.com/Blepretty1/status/1407819641284698113?s=20

    4. LMAO, we appreciate Ka3na’s dedication.

    Lowkey, ka3na’s comments are a highlight on the bbnaija reunion show. Hawk’s eyes have nothing on her.

    5. Ka3na again!

    6. Kayode, what was your work?

    7. Neo 1 – Kaisha 0

    8. Neo holding on to his version of the truth.

    https://twitter.com/Oli_Ekun/status/1407821705955975168?s=20

    9. God when?

    10. Justice for Kidd and Nengi.
