RAMADAN KAREEM

Today is the first day of Ramadan fast. The announcement for the commencement was made yesterday by the Sultan of Sokoto. Many will go by the announcement but there will be others who will not.
I did my Ramadan shopping about a month ago and am better off for that because prices have gone up since. I visited KT central market yesterday and it was a beehive of activity. Shoppers were in droves buying all manner of items. Top on the list included sugar, beverages, flour, apparels, and shoes. Apart from buying what to consume tradition dictates that one buys clothes for the coming Sallah Eid. And of course one buys things for gifts to relations and in-laws. Another thing that has almost become a tradition is the Ramadan text messages to friends on their mobile phones. I have received four of such messages so far and more are coming. And they can be quite interesting to read.
I wish us all a happy Ramadan season.

Happy Ramadan! You should share your Ramadan text messages.

I continue to be surprised by the prevalence of cell phones in Nigeria and the way they have changed life for everyone, regardless of sex, or religion.
 
Cell phones do wonders to us all but can you believe that armed robberies occur daily and we dont take advantage of these gizmos to trap the criminals?
 
Thanks Solo. As for the texts, well provide the number and presto they will be with you.
Cell phones have indeed changed our live and will continue to do so.
Like anony above said there are far more areas we can put them into good use.
Thanks all.
