We all can attest to the fact that our country is known to hype a new occurrence or a new trend and make it go viral or blow out of hand within a very short time, but as to whether that particular trend lasts for a longer period is something we have never seen. An example is the “Papa nu” incident, we all keyed in and contributed into it spreading like wild fire, sure… there may be slight echoes but then it’s not as effective as it was, when it was first speculated.
A much more relatable incident is the current trend where the bridal team introduces themselves before the bride makes her graceful appearance. “I’m not the blide… I’m the blide sister….” And so on and so forth. Agreeing with the renown musician, trends come and go but quality music stands the test of time.
