5 Types Of Comments You’ll Find In A Typical Nigerian Comment Section

1. The Vendors

The vendors are the people who have some good to sell or some service to render people and they feel the best place to do so is in the comment section of an Instagram post or a blog, most times with little or no relevance to the subject matter. We understand that everybody has to hustle, but sometimes, help us too.

2. The Phone Chargers

They’re gradually being extinct in the Nigerian blog community but you’ll find them on a seldom basis. But they’re the ones who come and drop things like “abeg who get Nokia battery here?”or “abeg who get iPhone charger wey e no dey use?”

3. Haters

This group of people are there to hate on everything, even the cheesiest stories and in most cases, they have gist about the subject matter or know something everyone doesn’t know. They are sarcastic sometimes, and other times, they’re as plain as day.

4. The OP guys

Where OP stands for “off topic”. These guys keep looking for ways to deviate from the subject matter. This can be used really to generalise all the other groups of people but we chose to leave it on its own because we can. Take, for example, we’re talking about how a celebrity’s wedding like for instance, Toolz here. someone finds a way to talk about animal husbandry or something absolutely off.

5. The Voltrons

The Voltrons are there to do what Voltron do, come to the rescue. They’re the ones who attack the haters and try to call them out on whatever they’re saying. Sometimes, they’re successful. Other times, they’re not. Some other times, they get dragged and caught up in someone else wahala.
