Things to know about JAJA boys

The so-called Jaja boys are residents of the Jaja hostel in Unilag. By residents, we mean squatters, bonafides, and floaters. These men (sorry—boys) may look normal when seen outside, but they transform into beasts the moment they step foot inside their hostel. It might be safe to say that they are perhaps consumed by some evil spirit lurking within the confines of their hostel.

Here are subtle reasons why you might want to reconsider pursuing any romantic interest with these boys.

Notorious for Cat-Calling

Ever wondered what it feels like not to be loved at home? Stop wondering because Jaja boys make it painfully obvious when they see girls walk past their hostel. They act like they've never received love in their lives. What's worse is that you cannot even see their faces—these hoodlums yell from the safety of their hostel windows.

Notorious Heartbreakers

Sometimes, one must wonder why anyone would willingly choose to date a Jaja boy. They are the living embodiment of Yoruba demons, regardless of their tribe. Yes, they may be good-looking, charming, and eloquent, but the moment you decide to give your heart to a Jaja boy, my dear, start scouting for a cardiologist because you're about to be diagnosed with heartbreak-induced heart disease.

Avid Football Lovers & 9ja Bet Addicts

Jaja boys can risk everything for football. If you think you’re their first love or main girlfriend, think again. For the record, you might need a knock on your head because your head must be paining you. If you’re not careful, a Jaja boy could even stake you as a bet for football. And if a Jajaboy ever tells you, “Hey babe, sorry I missed your call, I was asleep,” don’t believe it. It’s a big lie. He was either busy watching Real Madrid vs. Chelsea or crying because he staked his school fees on 9ja Bet—and lost.

Watch your back, my darlings.
