Paragon Posted September 24, 2007 A brother sent me this image below. It must be a psychological trick to keep Nigerian Mosque thieves on their feet . It is likely that when the thief sees the way the flipflops have been secured, he might as well not steal them. I mean it works with locked houses etc lol. Make sure the thieves don't get your flip flops We need to secure our properties.., I fully understand the effect crime is having on all Nigerians, but this is excessively far. This was left outside a local mosque in Nija!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paragon Posted September 24, 2007 ^^Looool. Could be the only pair of flipflops the poor man would have for a long time and he's using all available trickery to spare them from thievery. I remember in Nairobi mosques (expect Jamia Mosque) how one of my cousins adviced me to separate my shoes. You leave one on the shoe stuck, and take the other with you to the front rows. Plastic bag comes in handy for that task! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BOB Posted September 24, 2007 I can understand if one would steal expensive shoes but flip flops? and you thought Mosques would be safe from this sickening habit...! Peace,Love & Unity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted September 25, 2007 They stole my brother's shoes in Dubai airport's masaajid last week. He slept in that little masaajid while he was waiting his flight. Haka saarto, dacas uu ugu degay garoonka diyaaradaha ee Copenhagen ee Denmark on his way back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
