Americans picks and say ' Common Golor ' let assume it's Golor that's calling ..that's if they are familiar with the person....and, if it's someone they ain't familiar with , they just go straight to the point without greeting .or even making any form of pleasantries

It is known world wide that answering a call beginning with hello is a method of seeking the caller's attention but still this act of starting a call with hello has mastered us to the extent of saying hello without even thinking grin as if the are no other ways of picking a call.

It's a disgusting attitude.
I know someone that has missed an opportunity that could have changed his life and that of his family.

How can you withhold a call of someone that has put credit in his/her phone not even your credit to call you, only what you can do is to wait for the person first to say Hello?

It's pride! If it's not pride I don't see the reason you would dive into such nasty behavior.

For me, if I have a business to give you and I call you only but you to pick my call without uttering any words, waiting for me first to talk.

You have lost out, that business will be giving to another serious person.

Know this and change your disgusting lifestyles!

So what about you calling with the attitude of not introducing yourself? Or na only when person wan give person work una dey dey quick at fault finding? The same thing you are guilty of?

If you call a new number, you should introduce yourself! It is just like meeting a new person and wanting them to tell you about themselves without you uttering a word.

It is only a Nigerian mentality where you'll need sb do a job for you and you'll begin to feel you are doing the person a favour. For crying out loud, you are paying for services! You need services! They exchange theirs for money! You aren't doing them any favour!

Depending who the caller is...

If na babe ...” sup babe”
If it’s wifey... “ sup hun”

If I call you and you are owing me: “James, good day. Wetin dey happen na? Why you dey do me like this?”

Girlfriends: “babe, what's up?”

Crazy friends: “alaye/aje howfar na?”

Relatives I am older than: “Michael, how are you doing? How is your mum?”


Relatives older than me: “hello, good afternoon sir/ma... I missed your calls.”



If you call me, I don't have your number and you are waiting for me to talk first, we will breath together till thy kingdom comes!
