Hello to everyone in Philippines from simplicitytech@simplicitytech hailing from Nigeria. At first the only thing i know about philippines was their movies that not too long we started watching it here in Nigeria. First among the phil movie that captured Nigerians mind was THE PROMISE. Since then, Philippines started getting recognition from Nigeria... With that recognition and with the help of FACEBOOK social network, i got in contact with this Phil lady below

We formed a great bond that cannot be separated like mother and son. She also introduced a you g Nigerian to me by name Alero Oti from wester part of Nigeria. Our bond become obvious that we exchanged contacts, she introduced almost all her families in extension, like wise me. She got to know about my friends and we have no secret for each others.....

One thing i admire about her was her listening ear, her use of English, her compliment etc.because of her, i grow inlove with Philippines.

She taught me some filipion language (tagalog version) like their alphabetes like A Ba Ka Da E Ga Ha E La Ma NGa Pa Ra Sa Ta O Wa etc.
We also touched alittle on their numerics such as isa(1) dalawa(2) tatlo(3) apat(4) lima(5) etc
And some words like anak(son or daughteter ) etc...

She get me tp know the kind friends she keep but have forgotten their names...
We once planned on seeing real life on her vacation in philippines but didnt go through cos her elder bro was sick and she have to take care of him.

She was a mother figure for me and i do see myself as a filipino by adoption.
