RUBBING OF RECHARGE CARDS AGAINST WALLS ;THE NEW NUISANCE

Although it is unclear as to whether using your finger nails to scratch off the seal on recharge cards indeed causes cancer or not, recharge card patrons, out of caution, have come up with many alternative ways.

While some use pen tops, coins and other rough edged objects to scratch the seal off, others simply rub the card through their hair a few times and the deal is done. As to whether this also comes with its own side effects, I am yet to find out.

However, one method which has become a nuisance in recent times is the rubbing of recharge cards against walls.

Take a look at these walls  

One question for my pocket is that; how can we tell kids not to kill insects against walls, use it as their first copy book or platform to display nicknames when we ourselves are actively involved?

Like the Akan proverb goes, the goat which rubs its buttocks against its owner's walls thinks it is defacing them but it forgets that it is simultaneously hurting itself.

Next time you buy a recharge card and you know you cannot find a better way of revealing the pin, please ask the vendor to do it for you and stop that nuisance of rubbing it against the wall.
