Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas is in the air and upon us.
Even though it is celebrated all around the world, we Nigerians have a special way of celebrating the holidays with some of the things we say and do.
One
of the tell-tale signs of the Christmas holidays in Nigeria is the loud
sounds/noise of fireworks and knockouts popularly known as ‘bangers’. Excited
children, youths and some adults take to the streets to light up fireworks and
throw bangers in spectacular ways.
3. Go out to fast food restaurants and amusement parks during the holidays with a special vibe.
4. Wear special and beautiful outfits and call
them “Christmas and new year cloths.”
For many Nigerians, Christmas
holidays is the time to travel back to our villages, towns and native lands to
celebrate the festivities with family members we rarely see. Christmas
holidays offers some of the best family reunion experiences.
Nigerians are kinder to each other
during the holidays: Families and organizations take time out during the
holidays to share good cheer, give out gifts to each other and the less
privileged. Some people also organize causes and donation points for others.
5. Christmas parties and carnivals.
Oh, the most lit parties happen at Christmas
time. From carols to street carnivals to concerts, you are bound to have the
utmost time of your life during the holidays.
Oops! Number 6 and 7 points are missing, kindly add them if you are a Nigerian and you know the Christmas vibes. Let us know some other things you know Nigerians are fond of during the Christmas season.
What are you doing this Christmas
