Joke just Emailed to me by a Nigerian friend:

A yorubaman, an Iboman and a mugu were doing construction work on the scaffolding of a tall building. They were eating lunch. The Iboman said, "akpu and egusi soup! If I get akpu and egusi soup one more time for lunch, I'm going to jump off this building."

The yorubs guy opened his lunch box and exclaimed, "amala and gbegiri again! If I get amala and gbegiri one more time, I'm going to jump off too."

The mugu opened his lunch and said, "rice and beans again. If I get a rice and beans one more time, I'm jumping too."

Next day the Iboman opens his lunch box, sees akpu and egusi soup and jumps to his death. The yorubaman opens his lunch, sees amala and gbegiri and jumps too. The mugu opens his lunch, sees the rice and beans and jumps to his death as well.

At the funeral, the ibo man's wife is weeping. She says, "If I'd known how really tired he was of akpu and egusi soup, I never would have given it to him again!"

The yorubamans wife also weeps and says, "I could have given him eba and ewedu! I didn't realize he hated amala so much."

Everyone turned and stared at the mugu's wife. "Hey, don't look at me," she said. "He makes his own lunch." !!!!

for sure if na for real life no naijaman for ever jump ! weda lunch dey or not

Nigerians in heaven:

Gabriel came to the Lord and said, "I have to talk to you. I have some
Nigerians up here in Heaven who are causing some problems. They are
swinging on the Pearly Gates, my horn is missing, and they've got Maggi
sauce and Ogbono soup all over their robes; hamhocks, Isi-ewu, Cow-feet
and Bokoto bones are all over the streets of Gold.

Some folk are walking around with one wing; they have been late taking
their turn in keeping the stairway to heaven clean. There are soda
bottles all over the clouds, some aren't even wearing their halos,
saying it doesn't fit with their hairstyles."

The Lord said, "I made them special, as I did you, my angel. Heaven is
home to all my children. If you really want to know about problems,
let's call the Devil."

The Devil answered the phone, "Hello? What the.! , !, hold on one
minute." The Devil returned to the phone and said, "Hello Lord, what
can I do for you?"

The Lord replied, "Tell me what kind of problems you are having down
there."

The Devil said, "Wait one minute," and put the Lord on hold.

After 5 minutes he returned to the phone, and said "Okay, I'm back.
What was the question?"

The Lord said, "What kind of problems are you having down there?"

The Devil said, "Man, I don't belieee, hold on, Lord". This time the
Devil was gone for 15 minutes.

The Devil returned and said, "I'm sorry Lord, I can't talk right now.
These Nigerians put the fire out, and now they are trying to install
air conditioning! They even bribed my guys!!"
