Do you run the streets or do they run you?
Living in Nigeria isn’t for the faint hearted, ask around. You need to have a special kind of orientation, or what we core Nigerians call, OT. Without street OT ‘them fit run you street’; that it is to say, you can be easily tossed around and taken advantage of.
Do you have all it takes to roam the streets of Nigeria or you can explain? Here’s a quiz to test your street OT, if you score less than 7 you’re not safe.
