“NEPA and the Interview” Chinedu had a Zoom job interview with a foreign company. He wore a suit and tie—with boxers, of course—and arranged his background to look like a corporate office (thank God for virtual backgrounds). Just five minutes in, as he was confidently answering, “What makes you a great team player?”—NEPA struck. Darkness. Silence. Fan stopped. Laptop screamed low battery like it was dying in slow motion. Chinedu panicked. He stood up—forgot the camera was still on—and exposed his legendary red boxers with "Naija for Life" printed on them. When the light returned five minutes later, the interviewer was still on the call… laughing. She said, “Well, Mr. Chinedu, that was the most honest answer I’ve ever seen. You're hired.” Moral of the story: In Nigeria, survive first. Everything else is bonus. 😄🇳🇬 Ask ChatGPT
