On April 1, 2017, as is the custom in Nigeria and most parts of the world, Nigerians tried to outwit one another with various pranks.

This was quite a painful April Fools joke

ZENITHBLOG.com reported about how in a viral WhatsApp conversation, an unidentified guy decided to deceive his ex-girlfriend, claiming he has dumped his girlfriend, so they can get back together as lovers.

The former girlfriend who obviously is still in love with the guy, fell for the prank.

This time however, the April fool prank landed a man a promotion as recounted by a Nairaland user. Below is his story:

“I went out with a friend and his colleagues, after the good time, he told me in private why the work mates where happy for him not knowing that he is trapped between his long awaiting promotions and April fool’s prank he made:

“My friend said he proposed to a girl in the office with April fool in the back of his mind but the girl was so excited and screemed, every body including their MD came out, she pointed at the ring and kissed him, as she was telling them that he just proposed to her, before he could say a word the MD declared a free lunch for all.

“My friend wasn’t himself as the food delivery guys arrived sharing the food and drinks from gate, in the middle of the lunch their MD said ” That means your allowance should be increased.”
