Yesterday was Fathers’ day, so to honour this often ‘neglected’ group, we decided to highlight 5 different types of Daddies of the 21st Century.
- Social Daddy
He likes to feel young. He enjoys social media and tries to talk like young people, usually ending up in an epic fail. He will hit you up on BBM and Whatsapp when he is in the other room or try to make you laugh with a video he found on Facebook. He tends to save broadcast messages and redistributes them. He loves hanging out at the club with his friends dancing Shoki & Azonto.
- Weird Daddy
This Daddy lets you wear tattooes and piercings, probably because he has some tattooes himself. He might even suggest which ones suit you and which ones don’t. Weird Daddy is so cool, you’re scared that you’re the one that needs to put him in order sometimes. Your friends love him but you have reservations.
- Uptight Daddy
All that’s left of this Daddy is a leash. He doesn’t want his kid to go anywhere. He wants names, addresses and phone numbers if he eventually lets you leave the house. He tells his daughters how every boy is out to destroy them and his sons that other boys are never up to any good. Uptight Daddy is more pessimistic than optimistic. You love uptight daddy but you really wish he’d give you a break!
- Regular Daddy
He is the average Daddy. He has a daily routine, even on weekends. He is hardly ever idle. His idea of fun is stopping over at Mr.Biggs or the local Buka to buy Amala and Gbegiri. This Daddy loves Owambes and enjoys ‘gossiping’ with his wife.
- Daddy Bruce
This Daddy is a special Daddy. Not many have these Daddies. He dresses like a woman and has his manicure done weekly. He has breast implants and your girlfriends will gladly go shopping with him because he’s almost even hotter than them!
So we ask again – who’s your Daddy?
