A few days back, a friend of mine, someone some of you might have read about in my blog post about "an idea" sent me some quotes. Initially I didn't quite get the gist of it because it appeared like a proper Nigerian joke but at the end of it, the name of a very prominent individual was listed. I was trying to understand it when i received more, some shared by some prominent Nigerian comedians. Co-incidentally, I was having a very bad day and these jokes cheered me up. With his permission, I have decided to share them in other to brighten someone else's day. Read and enjoy......
