Your landlord might be mad, but these ones are worse

Also: How much does it cost to travel for AFCON? [View in browser](=.I4XxxMfGG6PuXblDHwbEGME98jTo1e9ijML9i4IInWg) [Zikoko Daily] 31 January, 2024 Hey . Someone said scrolling through Nigerian Twitter is like reading the book of Lamentations, and I couldn’t agree more. Since the naira [hit new lows](=.M_aLKpzVlOZT7aPRhrFMdVIpheHcHX_32uy08Ioxo9U) yet again, everyone has been lamenting. Well, this economy will favour me and my family. 🌚 In today’s newsletter, we spoke to Nigerians who travelled to Cote d’Ivoire for AFCON 2023 about how much it cost them (I thought we were all broke? 😭) and broke down Elsa Majimbo’s guide to never-ending glow (Have you seen her skin lately?!). We also included some old-but-gold stories for your binging pleasure. 👇🏾 Tife Editor In This Letter: - 1 [So you think your landlord is mad?](=.x1t5fHeEKS3F_yFUyKNUYdez_1Wi80C9xLucQwF-wzc) - 2 [How much does it cost to travel to Cote d’Ivoire for AFCON?](=.Zrfsw86l6ny7BQijScNfbOJpSTRtyRJWFKH0kVkCr3E) - 3 [An Elsa Majimbo guide to glowing for dark-skinned people](=.WSimS9vjJvhxBpDF4FfD9CZfS9AeYMJyPnBKdnNQwDs) SHORT READS Food Answereth All Things =._X9bx9CDJKr3ZqDJLfElRFI7tq_nzpak_3sg82QjiqM “Let me tell you about the time I let go of my “right” because of food. It was my first time travelling solo. I was going from Benin to Lagos, and I arrived at the park very early to pick a good seat by the window. I‘d already found an empty bus and settled in when the park guys asked me to move to another bus that only had one seat left. The seat in question was at the back with three other passengers. All the good seats had been taken. I wanted to cry. I called out that I wanted to come down, so I could return to my bus. The other passengers told me to calm down and begged me to manage the space, saying that it was an AC bus. But I was already on my feet, and I nor wan hear. Then the park guys started sharing chilled bottled water and bread. They said that's how they sponsor refreshments for AC buses in the park. Ah. I collected my bread, sat down and kept quiet. I thought the woman beside me would say something like, "Ah, you don't want to go back to your bus again?" But she didn't. Thank goodness.” — Enehi. Your story could be the next one featured here.

We spoke to a few Nigerians who travelled for the tournament, and it’s safe to say cost is a major reason more Nigerians didn’t travel.
