Switch Off Ya Phones! by YOHANAN(m): 11:56pm On May 20, 2008
Hey guys,

I've been receiving calls for the past 24 hrs from family & friends imploring me to swith off my phones as something bad (yet unexplained) would happen sometime between 11 pm yesterday and today.

Pls, has anyone heard about this?

Can you supply landers with more info?

Peace, I'm out!
Re: Switch Off Ya Phones! by ztyle(m): 11:59pm On May 20, 2008

Re: Switch Off Ya Phones! by YOHANAN(m): 12:05am On May 21, 2008
Where in Nigeria are you, is your phone on, and are you perceiving any unusual stuff?

PS - I've switched off my 3 phones already.

Haba! D news don come Nairaland too.

A friend came to me around 11pm today to lodge the same complain. He said an unknown person called him and advised that he should do the same.

It is a joke.

May be the people receiving it are people who are fund of making free midnight calls. I summed it all up because this guy always make free calls from night till dawn.

I am on celtel but not browsing free.

What I have noticed is that everytime I browse, I always notice a returned airtime the next day.

About 400% of my actual airtime is usually returned to me the next day. e.g If I have N40, I will receive approximately 400% of N40

I have been enjoying that for about 2months now.

I also have something related to that on my starcomms line.
