@Haneefabbas Imagine this happening now, with phones/cameras in every hand.

You have to give that era of Nigerian advertising its flowers. An actual elephant walking the streets of Marina: a massive spectacle, impossible to ignore.

Agency: Bluebird Communications.

[Tuchel @Officially_Kriz]

This was First Bank Public Offer roadshow in 2007.

The road show was led by a live elephant trudging from First Bank's corporate headquarters building on Marina in Lagos.

They intended to raise N100 billion but it was heavily oversubscribed and ultimately raised about N250 billion.

Ikeja have many statues but the one that stood out for my daughter was FELA KUTI’s headless yellow statue on Allen road.

I did a lot of explanation, I told her that if his head was included people will turn the place to a shrine.

Notting Hill Carnival, 30th August 2010, and 29th August 2011. In 2010 there were over 20 artists but once @9iceofficial climbed the stage everywhere scattered!! Alapomeji scattered London 💙. @nisot x @Ade_Momos x Tosin Oguntoyinbo x DJ Jimmy Jatt ✌🏽.

@iamrildwanbello Solutions to ramp up usage come with its own backlash.

Congestion charge around CBD?
Car parks around marina charger per hour rather than whole day?

Interning times 😂

Early 2000s Naija music videos were low-key a “custom T-shirt” archive. HYPNO, EJA/NWA, OGQ2, NACK, Marco Martinez… what an era.

These videos were quietly documented the birth of Nigeria’s graphic T-shirt culture, long before “streetwear” became a thing.

[The Racket Report @Racket_Report]

In 2017, a 7-year-old boy named Izyan “Zizou” Ahmad asked Roger Federer at a US Open press conference:

Could you keep playing long enough so I can face you when I turn pro?

Federer smiled and basically promised to try.

Nine years later, that same kid made his ATP qualifying debut at Indian Wells at age 15.

Sometimes tennis stories take years to complete.

[Gerry 🏇💨💨💨 @gerryd84]

There’s a guy on instagram whos trying to record the sound of a ball hitting a crossbar which, 3 videos in, he’s failed to do so far and I’m telling you now that I’ve never been so invested in a series than this!!

[Olowu 'Kayode Qosim @kayodeolowu]

@UrbanBeardy 😕 he’s got a point.

[Olowu 'Kayode Qosim @kayodeolowu]

The Emirate-branded bus 🤭...is that a sign?

[Simon Squibb @simonsquibb]

He’ll win us the next World Cup… 🥹

@Adidas is probably the biggest winner here. #worldcupfinal
