This is what villagers does to your phone when they get hold of it

You can’t even begin contemplating a world without phones – the world would simply be formless, barren and desolate, just as it was before creation.

Yet, through painstaking research, trial and error, a man managed to bridge geographical distances through mobile communication.

Mobile phones, however, have revealed the other side of human beings – the undesirable aspects – especially in the village.

Here are the three annoying phone habits you will encounter while in the village;

Loudness

In the past when it was prestige to own phone, it was perfectly acceptable to yell on the phone. You can forgive those days because the network may have been erratic at the time. Now, it is not virtuous if you don’t talk loudly into your phone, neither is it to put a loud ringtone. Isn’t enough to put it on vibration.

Lastly, there’s absolutely no need for playing loud music, especially in a public place. There’s a way a phone is private and playing music in a public place does not register as the correct thing.

Hogging someone’s phone

In the village, many people are not privileged to own phones that bring the world into your palms. When you visit the village, your village friends want to interact with your phone at your own expense.

They go through your gallery, play music and play games until the battery runs low when they give you. They hand you a useless thing, and the process repeats when you recharge it.

Going through someone’s private messages

The mild one is peeping as one peruses through their phone in a matatu for example. Others, of course they have to be your close acquaintances, make it a point of going through your private messages. And they do so brazenly without an iota of shame as if they are studying a school set textbook.
